Remington Core-Lokt .30-06 Springfield 220-grain Soft Point ammunition (brand part no. R27830) carries forward a bullet design that has filled more tags than almost any other hunting load in American history. Remington has loaded Core-Lokt since 1939, building it around a tapered copper jacket locked to a solid lead core, a construction that delivers controlled two-times expansion and strong weight retention on impact. At a rated muzzle velocity of 2,410 feet per second, this 220-grain loading gives the .30-06 Springfield the heavier bullet weight hunters reach for on elk, moose, and other large-bodied game. It is proof that a design proven for over 75 years still belongs in a modern hunting rifle.
