HRNDY OUTF 300WSM 180GR CX 20/200

Description

Hornady’s Outfitter line is built around a single premise: hunting ammunition that holds up when conditions turn against you. Whether that means rain-soaked packs, humid coastal terrain, or back-country camps where rounds sit chambered and unchecked for days, this loading is engineered to remain reliable where standard brass-cased ammunition can develop reliability concerns over time. The nickel-plated case resists corrosion and feeds smoothly under hard use, making it a sensible choice for any hunt where the ammunition may be exposed to moisture before it ever reaches a target.

The projectile is Hornady’s CX bullet — a monolithic copper-alloy construction with a polymer tip. Because the bullet is solid copper alloy rather than a lead-core design, it holds together under the high velocities this cartridge generates, driving deep through heavy muscle and bone on medium to large game without shedding mass partway through. The polymer tip initiates expansion reliably at the moment of impact, even at the longer distances the .300 WSM is well suited for, and the lack of a lead core means the bullet retains virtually all of its weight through the wound channel. That combination of penetration depth and consistent expansion is the reason copper-alloy monolithics have become the preferred bullet type for elk, moose, and bear where hunters need a round to perform regardless of the angle of impact.

Muzzle velocity from this loading is 2,900 fps, which keeps the bullet’s trajectory comparatively flat at hunting distances and preserves enough energy at range to anchor large-bodied animals cleanly. Each box contains 20 rounds.
