Our 25th annual review of sporting ammunition that offer the ultimate in accuracy and dependability.
Norma USA
Tipstrike has set a new benchmark in terminal ballistics—the devastating effect that a bullet has on medium to big game. Precision engineered for optimal expansion and ideal penetration into vital organs, Tipstrike delivers an instantaneous, drop-dead result out to 650 yards. The expansion ensured by its polymer tip reduces the risk of tracking wounded game. One-shot one-kill isn’t just a catch phrase anymore, it is a reality with Tipstrike.
Geco
GECO has made improvements to its range of hunting ammunition. GECO uses top-of-the line bullets. One example is the Plus–an advanced bullet built for game. Precise. Tough. Reliable. And available in several calibers. With all GECO loads, over a century of experience goes into every cartridge. Find your favorite caliber and choose GECO.
Swift Bullet Company
The original introduction of Swift High Grade Hunting Ammunition consisted of 18 cartridges in both Scirocco and A-Frame. The second phase brought on 12 more, including the new Break-Away solids. In February, with the latest addition of the 200-grain A-Frame in 300 Win. Mag., the line includes 60 SKUS in 34 cartridges ranging from 223 Rem. through 500 Nitro. Whether you reload or shoot already loaded ammunition, Swift bullets are available for you in either format.
Hornady
The 6.5 Precision Rifle Cartridge was designed to achieve the highest levels of accuracy, flat trajectory and extended range performance in a sensibly designed, compact package.
Using moderate powder charges that result in repeatable accuracy, low recoil and reasonable barrel life, the 6.5 PRC produces high velocities with performance well beyond 1,000 yards. Rifle-makers chambering the 6.5 PRC include: Christensen Arms, Fierce Firearms, GA Precision, Gunwerks, Hill Country Rifles, Horizon Firearms, McRee Precision, Montana Rifles, Proof Research, Savage Firearms, Sauer, Stuteville Precision, Seekins Precision and Trident Armory.
