Product Overview
Remington's Core-Lokt Tipped 150-grain .30-06 Springfield load brings modern innovation to a proven design. With velocities touching 2930 fps and muzzle energy exceeding 2850 ft-lbs, this round hits harder than a summer thunderstorm. The polymer tip isn't just for looks - it enhances downrange accuracy while ensuring reliable expansion, even when that trophy buck appears at the far edge of your effective range.
Physics tells the real story here. The 150-grain bullet strikes the perfect balance between speed and mass, while that polymer tip initiates expansion the instant it meets resistance. Unlike traditional soft points that can be finicky in adverse conditions, this round maintains its terminal performance whether you're hunting in driving rain or high mountain snow. The Core-Lokt construction keeps the bullet together through shoulder bones and tough hide, ensuring deep penetration when shot placement isn't picture-perfect.
Take this load from September elk seasons through December whitetail hunts without changing your zero. Its flat trajectory simplifies holdover calculations in mountain winds, while the controlled expansion creates clean wound channels that preserve meat around the impact site. Zero your rifle at 200 yards, and you've got predictable performance from point-blank out to where your optics become the limiting factor. After all, the best hunting load is the one that lets you focus on shot placement instead of second-guessing your equipment.
- Advanced tip design enhances accuracy in shifting thermal conditions while maintaining the legendary Core-Lokt mushrooming characteristics
- Slightly higher velocity creates flatter trajectories during field shots without pushing into uncomfortable recoil territory
- Excels in mixed hunting scenarios from dense woodland to field edges thanks to its versatile terminal performance profile
- All-weather reliability shines during late season hunts when changing temperatures affect lesser designs
- Modernized design commands a price premium over traditional soft point options
- Polymer tip may raise feeding concerns in rifles designed around classic bullet profiles
- Sweet-spot performance characteristics might deliver more capability than needed for basic woodland hunting inside 150 yards
