Hornady‘s American Whitetail ammunition in .300 Winchester Magnum (brand part no. 82024) loads a 165-grain SST bullet built specifically for deer hunters who want proven expansion without a premium price tag. American Whitetail is Hornady’s dedicated deer-hunting line, built around the Super Shock Tip bullet rather than a generic soft point. The SST’s polymer tip triggers reliable expansion on contact, while its secant-ogive profile keeps the trajectory flat at extended range, exactly what a .300 Win Mag hunter wants from a long shot across a field. For deer hunters who want Hornady’s flagship expanding bullet in an affordable factory load, this rifle ammunition is built for the stand.
