Hornady Superformance 25-06 Remington 117gr SST

Description

The Hornady Superformance 25-06 Remington rounds deliver the velocity advantage you'd expect from a magnum cartridge without the headaches. By using specialized progressive propellants, these loads run 100 to 200 fps faster than standard ammunition while staying well within normal pressure limits. You get flatter shooting, better energy retention downrange, and cleaner performance in extreme temperatures without the extra recoil or muzzle blast that typically comes with faster loads.

The SST Bullet Design

Each round is built around Hornady's proven SST (Super Shock Tip) bullet, engineered specifically for hunting. The polymer tip initiates controlled expansion upon impact, even at longer distances, while the Interlock ring prevents jacket separation and ensures good weight retention. This design gives you the penetration and expansion you need for reliable performance on medium game out to extended ranges. The streamlined profile and boattail design help the bullet maintain velocity better against wind drift, and the ballistic coefficient is higher than most hunting bullets in this weight class.

Perfect for Medium Game

The .25-06 cartridge has earned its reputation as one of the most versatile quarter-bore options available. Paired with this 117-grain load, it delivers the flat trajectory and moderate recoil that makes accurate shot placement easier. The velocity advantage of Superformance propellants means you get to your target faster, which translates to shorter leads on moving game and a wider margin for judgment errors on distance estimation.

Consistent Quality Components

Like all Hornady factory ammunition, these rounds use the highest quality brass cases and primers available. That consistency carries through to the field, where uniform performance across different temperature ranges and barrel lengths gives you the confidence to take the shot when the moment matters.
