Description
The Hornady 260 Rem 129gr SST Superformance load is built for shooters who want more from their .260 Remington than typical factory ammunition delivers. Hornady loads a 129 grain SST polymer tip to a rated 2930 feet per second, producing about 2460 foot-pounds of energy. Superformance ammunition uses specially blended propellants to reach velocities up to 200 fps faster than standard loads without extra pressure or recoil. The SST bullet pairs a polymer tip for fast expansion with an InterLock ring for weight retention, giving flat trajectory and dependable terminal performance on deer, elk and similar game.

Buying ammunition by the box from the same production lot keeps velocity and point of impact consistent from one range trip to the next. Keep a record of the load you carry, check your ammunition for dents or loose bullets from time to time, and rotate your carry rounds so the ones in your firearm stay fresh. These simple habits help you get the full performance Hornady builds into every cartridge.
Before you trust any new load, fire enough rounds through your firearm to confirm it feeds, fires and ejects reliably and that the point of impact matches your sights. Full-power loads produce more recoil and muzzle blast than typical range ammo, so practice with the Hornady 260 Rem 129gr SST Superformance until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.
