Overview
Built for hunters loading .35 Whelen rifles, this 200-grain soft point ammunition is intended for big-game use where controlled expansion and dependable performance are priorities. Hornady’s Superformance line is presented here in a 20-round box with a listed muzzle velocity of 2,920 fps and muzzle energy of 3,760 ft. lbs. The soft point bullet style is specifically noted, and the product does not include the polymer tip shown in some images, so buyers should rely on the listed projectile type rather than the photo.
