Product Overview
Black Hills Gold 154-grain Hornady SST is a polymer-tipped 7mm Remington Magnum load made for hunting. Black Hills loads Hornady's SST, a hunting bullet over a lead core. It leaves the muzzle at 3,000 fps with 3,077 ft-lbs and has a G1 BC of .525.
Zeroed at 200 yards, it drops 6.4 inches at 300 yards and 18.5 inches at 400 yards, arriving with 1,836 ft-lbs. From a 100-yard zero the drop at 400 yards is 24.3 inches. It kicks less than Hornady's Superformance 154-grain SST.
If you're cross-shopping, Hornady's Superformance 154-grain SST is the same bullet 100 fps faster and from a 200-yard zero drops 17.2 inches at 400 yards. Sierra's GameChanger 150-grain TGK has a G1 BC of .545 and starts at the same speed as this load.
- Carries 2,100 ft-lbs at 300 yards
- A higher G1 BC than Hornady's American Whitetail 154-grain InterLock at .433
- Still moving at 2,317 fps at 400 yards
- A lead core, so it is out where lead-free ammunition is required
- 210 ft-lbs less at the muzzle than Ammo Inc's Signature Hunter 154-grain SST
- 1.3 inches more drop at 400 yards from a 200-yard zero than Hornady's Superformance 154-grain SST
