The Hornady InterLock 7.62mm 123-grain Soft Point bullet (Hornady part no. 3140) carries Hornady’s traditional exposed-lead-tip design for controlled expansion and hard-hitting terminal performance. Hornady’s secant ogive profile is one of the most ballistically efficient shapes in the lineup, and the InterLock ring — a raised feature molded inside the jacket and embedded in the core — keeps jacket and core locked together during expansion so the bullet retains mass and energy instead of shedding material.
