Product Overview
Remington loads this 300gr semi-jacketed hollow point to 1900 fps for 2405 ft-lbs at the muzzle. The semi-jacketed design allows the front to expand while the jacket controls how far the bullet opens. This provides a balance between expansion and penetration on medium game like deer and black bear.
The .22 ballistic coefficient gives decent flight characteristics for a .45-70 bullet. Inside 150 yards, trajectory stays flat enough for practical field shooting. Remington is widely available at sporting goods stores, making this load easy to find for last-minute hunting trips. It feeds reliably through lever actions and single shots alike.
