The official history of Hornady is as follows. Once upon a time there was a man who wanted to make great bullets. He did, and everything was good, and his company would go on to make the perfect ammo for your next 308 deer hunt: American Whitetail Tipped.
The Super Shock Tip is, as you may already have genuinely surmised, a polymer-tipped bullet. That red spike serves two purposes: ram into the bullet to cause massive, traumatic terminal expansion as quickly as possible, and streamline the bullet. The SST is a boat tail bullet, with a secant ogive curve to its side profile that reduces drag even more effectively. If your barrel’s a 24-incher, then you can expect the 150 grain .30 cal ~0.415 G1 BC SST to perform this dance:
0yds: 2,810 fps | 2,630 ft lbs | -1.5”
100yds: 2,591 fps | 2,237 ft lbs | 4.5”
200yds: 2,383 fps | 1,892 ft lbs | 5.3”
300yds: 2,185 fps | 1,590 ft lbs | 0.0”
400yds: 1,996 fps | 1,327 ft lbs | -12.6”
500yds: 1,817 fps | 1,100 ft lbs | -34.0”
600yds: 1,650 fps | 907 ft lbs | -65.9”
And wouldn’t you know it? The SST is also a brute. It features Hornady’s InterLock ring, which secures part of its jacket’s interior surface to its core, and a midbody cannelure that does the same. Together, these anchors help the SST stay more intact, penetrate more deeply, and just be all around deadlier to whitetail et al.
