Speer's 165 grain .30 caliber Spitzer Boat-Tail Soft Point is a reloading projectile built for the hunter who stretches shots out past the easy ranges. Measuring .308 in diameter, it carries a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.520 and a sectional density of 0.248, which translates to flatter trajectories, less wind drift, and good penetration on deer-sized game. This is a component bullet for handloading, not a loaded cartridge, so you'll be seating these into your own prepped brass.
The spitzer nose and boat-tail base work together to cut aerodynamic drag, which is the whole point of that tapered heel. The result is a bullet that holds velocity better and shoots flatter the farther it travels, making it a solid match for .308 Winchester, .30-06, .300 Win Mag, and other .30 caliber rifles where you want reach without a fussy load. At 165 grains it sits in that sweet spot a lot of .30 cal reloaders gravitate toward, splitting the difference between lighter varmint weights and the heavier bullets meant for bigger animals.
The exposed soft point is designed to start expanding quickly on impact, and the copper jacket tapers from a thicker shank section toward the nose to keep the core intact and retain weight as the bullet drives through. That balance of fast expansion up front and controlled behavior deeper in is what makes this projectile a dependable choice on whitetail and antelope.
There's no cannelure on this bullet, so most folks will set seating depth to their rifle's chamber and crimp accordingly rather than relying on a crimp groove. The lead core, lead tip, and copper jacket are standard fare that play nice with common .30 caliber load data, and the box of 100 gives you plenty to work up a load and still have a hunting supply left over. Pair these with your favorite powder and a careful workup and they'll earn their keep season after season.
No, these are component projectiles meant for reloading. You seat them into your own prepped and primed brass with the appropriate powder charge. They are not loaded cartridges and cannot be fired as-is.
This .308 diameter bullet works in any .30 caliber cartridge that uses .308 projectiles, including .308 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield, .300 Win Mag, and .300 Blackout. Just match it to published load data for your specific cartridge. The 165 grain weight is a popular all-around choice for medium game.
No, this bullet does not have a cannelure. You'll set your seating depth to suit your rifle's chamber rather than crimping into a groove. Most reloaders find this gives them flexibility to tune the load for accuracy.
The 165 grain Spitzer Boat-Tail Soft Point is built for medium game, with rapid expansion that performs well on whitetail deer and antelope. The high ballistic coefficient and flat trajectory also make it a good pick for longer shots. The tapered jacket helps retain weight for solid penetration.
