Remington Core-Lokt ammunition has earned its reputation as the hunter's choice for .300 SAUM rifles built on proven ballistics and field results. This 165-grain pointed soft point load delivers 3075 fps at the muzzle, offering the velocity and weight retention that serious big game hunters expect from a shorter magnum cartridge. Whether you're pursuing elk, deer, or other medium-to-large game, Core-Lokt's controlled-expansion design means more ethical, one-shot kills and fewer lost animals.

The signature Core-Lokt bullet design—a tapered copper jacket mechanically locked to a solid lead core—has been refined over decades to provide consistent, predictable performance on game. The bullet achieves approximately 2X expansion while retaining weight through the vitals, delivering the energy transfer and penetration necessary for reliable terminal performance at hunting distances. The .300 SAUM's efficiency means you get magnum-class performance in a short-action platform, making it ideal for hunters who value lighter recoil and faster handling without sacrificing downrange authority.

This ammunition ships in convenient 20-round boxes, making it easy to keep your rifle topped up or to grab a quick resupply before the season opens. Core-Lokt's availability across virtually every mainstream hunting caliber means you can standardize on a bullet design you trust, whether you're running a .300 SAUM, a .270, or a .30-06. If you hunt with confidence and expect your ammunition to perform when it counts, Core-Lokt delivers on that promise.
