Hornady InterLock Rifle Bullets, 270 Caliber, .277, 140 Grain, Boat Tail Spire Point

A boat tail means boat tails don’t roll over in the wind. Also, the boat tail forces the projectile to travel a greater distance through the air, thus expelling less air over the front of the projectile. At low velocities, this projectile may mushroom or even over-penetrate through the target without any warning. Usually, this happens as the projectile passes through the air and the back of the target expands. Usually, this is a good thing as the expanded expansion often produces a larger blood trail and a better look at game. However, the InterLock projectile may also cause significant collateral damage as the projectile’s copper jacket tends to expand and flex excessively on impact causing the projectile to deform and possibly shed its jacket. This can be a problem at low velocities when the impact energy is too great and the projectile might not have enough momentum to get over the target before the point of impact. Avoid under-penetration with other bullets and create a larger wound channel with this innovative InterLock design. The only projectile with an InterLock tip is the InterLock, which uses a copper insert and a stainless steel ballistic back plate in conjunction with a soft lead core and a thick copper jacket to retain energy and provide the projectile with a much stiffer shape for reliable ignition. This round is a proven big game hunting bullet with a Proven Guarantee. All Hornady products are backed by a solid guarantee.
