Description

The Hornady SST 30 Cal (.308) 150 Grain bullet is one of the most popular hunting projectiles handloaders reach for when they want a .308 Winchester, .30-06, or .300 magnum load that shoots flat and hits hard. Short for Super Shock Tip, the SST pairs a sharp polymer tip with a secant ogive boat-tail profile to carry a .415 G1 ballistic coefficient and a .226 sectional density. That translates to less wind drift, a flatter trajectory on longer shots, and the kind of downrange energy that puts animals down fast.

What Makes the SST 150 Grain .308 Tick

The real story here is the terminal performance. On impact, the polymer tip drives back into the lead core like a wedge and kicks off rapid, controlled expansion. Hornady's InterLock ring, a raised band inside the jacket, bites into the core and keeps the jacket and lead locked together through expansion. The result is strong weight retention, a wide wound channel, and the ability to drive deep. It's a bullet that opens up quickly without coming apart.

Loading the Hornady 150 Grain SST

These are component bullets for reloading, not loaded ammunition, so you'll be seating them over your own powder charge and brass. The .308 diameter 150 grain weight is a sweet spot for a lot of .30 caliber cartridges and works beautifully in standard twist rates. There's a cannelure around the mid-body, which comes in handy if you want to crimp for semi-autos or lever guns, though it isn't required for bolt-action loads.

Game It's Built For

This is a proven whitetail and antelope bullet, and it has plenty of backbone for medium and large game. Hunters consistently report tight groups and clean kills, making the 150 grain SST a dependable choice from the deer woods to open-country western hunts. If you handload for a .30 caliber rifle and want one bullet that covers most of your big-game hunting, this one earns its spot on the bench.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Hornady SST 150 grain .308 bullets loaded ammunition?

No, these are component bullets for reloading only. You'll seat them over your own powder charge, primer, and brass. They are not ready-to-fire cartridges, so you'll need the rest of your reloading components to build a finished round.

What game is the 150 grain SST best suited for?

Hornady lists the 150 grain SST for medium and large game, and it's a well-earned reputation as a deer and antelope bullet. The fast, controlled expansion and wide wound channel make it a reliable choice for whitetail, mule deer, and similar sized animals. Plenty of hunters count on it for clean, quick kills.

Does this SST bullet have a cannelure?

Yes, there's a cannelure around the mid-body of the bullet. It gives you the option to apply a crimp, which is helpful in semi-autos and lever guns where bullets can get pushed back under recoil. For bolt-action loads, using the cannelure is optional.

What cartridges can I load the .308 diameter 150 grain SST in?

This .308 diameter bullet works in a wide range of .30 caliber cartridges, including .308 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield, .300 Savage, and various .300 magnums. The 150 grain weight is a versatile all-around choice for these rounds. Always check your load data for the specific cartridge you're building.
