Overview
Built for handloaders who want a traditional hunting bullet with a controlled-expansion profile, this 30 caliber .308 170 grain flat point option is aimed at practical big-game use. The exposed lead tip and InterLock design are intended to help the jacket and core stay together during expansion, supporting retained mass and energy. Hornady’s traditional line also uses a secant ogive profile on most bullets, reflecting a design focused on efficient flight characteristics. As with any reloading component, load data should be verified in a reloading manual or with the powder manufacturer before use.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for controlled expansion, so it is oriented toward terminal performance rather than the flatter-shooting profiles some hunters may prefer for longer-range use.
- The product description notes that most bullets in this line feature the secant ogive and InterLock design, so those details are not explicitly confirmed for every bullet in this specific listing.
- Reloading data is not provided here; the listing directs users to consult a reloading manual or powder manufacturer website before use.
- This is a 100-count box, which is practical for reloaders but may be more than needed for occasional use.
