Description
Remington Core-Lokt ammunition has been a trusted choice since 1939, and this 7mm Mauser loading showcases why. The 140-grain Pointed Soft Point bullet features the original controlled-expansion design that made Core-Lokt famous, with a tapered copper jacket locked solidly to a lead core. When the bullet impacts game, this construction delivers predictable expansion and excellent weight retention that resists separation during penetration, maintaining the deep wound channels necessary for quick, clean kills.
Performance with the 7mm Mauser 140gr Core-Lokt
This load sends the bullet downrange at 2660 fps with 2199 foot-pounds of muzzle energy, giving you flat trajectories and hard-hitting power at practical hunting distances. The 140-grain weight is the most popular commercial load for the 7x57mm Mauser and offers a good balance of velocity and energy. The streamlined PSP profile provides better aerodynamics than older soft point designs, helping the bullet retain energy and velocity at distance while still expanding reliably on impact.
What Sets These Rounds Apart
You get factory-fresh brass cases with non-corrosive boxer primers, making these rounds reloadable for those who handload. The ammunition is new production and precision-manufactured for consistent performance shot to shot. The classic green and yellow Remington box contains 20 rounds packed ready for hunting. This is the kind of ammunition that filled more tags on more continents than any other load over the past 75+ years, and for good reason.
Built for Medium to Large Game
The 7mm Mauser is a capable medium to large game cartridge, and this Core-Lokt load is engineered specifically for that mission. Whether you're hunting deer, elk, or similar-sized game, the controlled expansion of the PSP bullet delivers consistent on-game results. The ammunition is designed to perform effectively from typical hunting ranges, making it a reliable choice for hunters who value predictable terminal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Core-Lokt bullet design and why does it matter?
The Core-Lokt design features a tapered copper jacket locked to a solid lead core. This construction promotes controlled expansion upon impact while maintaining bullet weight retention, which resists separation and creates deep, consistent wound channels. This design has been proven in the field for over 75 years and is the reason Core-Lokt ammunition is so effective on game.
Is this 7mm Mauser load suitable for reloading?
Yes. These cases are brass with boxer primers and are listed as reloadable. The uniform dimensions of factory brass help ensure consistent performance when you reload, making this ammunition economical for those who handload multiple times.
What game is this 7mm Mauser 140gr Core-Lokt best used for?
This load is designed for medium to large game hunting, with deer and elk being typical applications. The 140-grain weight is the most commercially available and popular for the 7x57mm Mauser, offering solid velocity and energy for hunting at practical distances.
How does the Pointed Soft Point (PSP) design compare to standard soft point bullets?
The PSP profile is more streamlined than traditional blunt soft point bullets, which gives it better aerodynamics and helps it retain velocity at distance. This means flatter trajectories and more consistent performance at 200 and 300 yards, while still delivering rapid expansion upon impact for quick, clean kills.
