Description

Finding good .250 Savage ammunition can be a challenge since it's an older caliber, but Hornady Custom makes it worth your effort. This factory load pairs the 100-grain InterLock Soft Point bullet with components engineered for consistent performance from the first round to the last.

The InterLock bullet design is the backbone here. Hornady embeds a ring directly into the bullet core that locks the jacket and core together during expansion, which means more mass retention and deeper penetration through medium-sized game. The soft point construction allows controlled expansion while the exposed lead tip initiates reliable bullet expansion at typical hunting ranges. The result is a deep wound channel and ethical performance on game.

Hornady Custom .250 Savage delivers ballistic efficiency

Most Custom loads use a secant ogive design that Hornady pioneered. This profile creates the optimal blend of ballistic efficiency and bearing surface, which translates to flatter trajectories and less air drag. Your 100-grain load leaves the muzzle at 2800 feet per second with 1741 foot-pounds of energy, giving the .250 Savage rifle solid performance at hunting distances. Velocity at 100 yards sits around 2542 fps, so you're working with a round that maintains its energy downrange.

This ammunition is built to tight tolerances

Every single round gets hand inspected before it leaves Hornady's facility. The brass cases are new production, non-corrosive, and boxer primed so you can reload them if you want to squeeze more value out of each round. The powder and primers are carefully matched to each load for consistency shot to shot. You won't see wild velocity variations between rounds or boxes, which matters when you're trying to dial in your rifle or count on predictable performance in the field.

The 20-round box format is standard for Hornady Custom, and the ammunition is suitable for both hunting and range practice. Whether you're testing loads, sighting in before the season, or in the field when a big moment arrives, this round delivers the accuracy and terminal performance that Hornady has built its reputation on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this .250 Savage ammunition good for reloading?

Yes. Hornady Custom ammunition comes in boxer-primed brass cases marked as reloadable. Since .250 Savage can be expensive to find, many shooters reload the cases multiple times, which makes this a practical choice if you handload.

What game is this Hornady Custom .250 Savage load suitable for?

This 100-grain InterLock load is designed for medium-sized game including deer, antelope, and similar-sized animals. The controlled expansion of the InterLock bullet makes it an ethical choice for these game animals. It's also suitable for target practice and range work.

How does the InterLock bullet perform compared to other soft point designs?

The InterLock ring locks the jacket and core together during expansion, which helps the bullet retain mass and penetrate deeper than traditional soft points. This gives you better penetration and more consistent wound channels, which is important for clean, ethical kills.

Why is this caliber hard to find?

The .250 Savage is an older cartridge developed in 1915, so it's not as commonly manufactured as modern calibers like .308 Winchester or .30-06 Springfield. Hornady is one of the few major manufacturers still loading it, which makes this ammunition valuable for rifles chambered in this vintage caliber.
