Description

The Speer Hot-Cor .303 Caliber 180 Grain Soft Point Round Nose bullet (brand part no. 2223) is a classic big-game projectile from Speer, sold 100 to a box for .303 British handloaders. As with the rest of the Hot-Cor line, Speer pours molten lead directly into the jacket during construction to maximize consistency while keeping the bullet affordable.
