Description

This Remington Core-Lokt .30-06 165gr Pointed Soft Point cartridge ships 20 rounds to the box for big-game hunting (Remington part no. r21415). Core-Lokt has been Remington’s controlled-expansion hunting bullet since 1939, locking the jacket and lead core together so the bullet holds its weight and drives through tough game. The .30-06 Springfield chambering pushes the 165-grain bullet to 2800 fps at the muzzle, with 2872 ft-lb of energy, based on the ballistics Remington publishes for this item. Remington lists its usage as big game, so it suits hunters who match a .30-06 Springfield rifle to that kind of shot. Check the cartridge stamped on your barrel against .30-06 Springfield before you order.
