The Hornady Superformance .300 Savage gives you a real performance bump if you're running one of the countless Savage 99 rifles or other guns chambered for this classic cartridge. Using progressive propellants, this load pushes a 150 grain SST bullet to 2740 fps without cranking up pressure or adding recoil. That's roughly 100 to 200 fps faster than standard .300 Savage factory ammo, which translates to a flatter trajectory and better energy retention downrange.
The Super Shock Tip design combines a polymer-tipped bullet with Hornady's Interlock ring technology. When that red polymer tip hits game, it wedges into the hollow point to trigger consistent, controlled expansion. The Interlock ring mechanically locks the jacket to the core, so you get reliable weight retention and deep penetration even after the bullet expands. This design works across a wide velocity range, making it effective whether you're shooting close or stretching it out to 250 or 300 yards.
The .300 Savage may not grab headlines like modern magnums, but it's a proven medium-range hunting round. At 2740 fps, this Superformance load puts the old cartridge in territory where it's genuinely useful for deer, black bear, and similar game. Ballistically, you're looking at roughly 9 inches of drop at 300 yards with a 200-yard zero, which is respectable for the cartridge. Brass cases with quality primers ensure consistent performance across temperature swings, so this ammo performs whether you're hunting in cold fall weather or dealing with heat.
Twenty rounds per box means a full hunting trip's worth of ammo. The ballistic coefficient of .370 keeps the bullet flying straight, and the secant ogive design reduces wind drift. For anyone who still trusts their classic .300 Savage rifle, this Superformance load is solid ammunition that actually improves on what the cartridge was designed to do.
Yes. Hornady Superformance ammunition is loaded to SAAMI pressure specifications, making it safe for all .300 Savage firearms including vintage Savage 99s, Remington semi-autos, and bolt-actions. The ammunition produces no increase in pressure compared to standard loads, so your rifle won't see additional stress despite the higher velocity.
The polymer tip initiates expansion at impact, and the Interlock ring keeps the jacket and core locked together for consistent performance. At typical hunting distances under 300 yards, the SST expands reliably and produces controlled wound channels. The bullet retains weight well, which means good penetration to vital areas without excessive meat damage on medium-sized game.
Superformance uses progressive propellants that burn more efficiently to deliver 100 to 200 fps more velocity without increasing pressure, recoil, or temperature sensitivity. With this load, you get a flatter trajectory and better energy retention downrange compared to standard factory .300 Savage ammunition, which typically runs around 2650 fps with a 150 grain bullet.
Hornady produces .300 Savage ammunition in periodic production runs, along with a few other major brands. While it's not as widely available as modern cartridges, there's steady demand from owners of classic rifles. Availability can vary, so stocking up when you find it in stock is often a good idea.
