Hrndy Sf 3006 165gr Sst 20/200

Hornady Superformance .30-06 Springfield 165-grain SST ammunition delivers velocity gains of up to 200 feet per second over conventional loads without increasing pressure, recoil, or muzzle blast. This 20-round box pairs Hornady's proven SST (Super Shock Tip) projectile with progressive propellants engineered to extract maximum performance from the .30-06 platform while maintaining exceptional accuracy and consistency downrange.

The 165-grain SST bullet offers a hybrid design combining a polymer tip for uniform expansion with an interlock band that locks the core to the jacket. Loaded to 2,960 feet per second, this configuration balances energy delivery with the intermediate weight class traditionally favored by hunters and riflemen seeking flatter trajectories than heavier loads. Superformance ammunition resists temperature sensitivity—a critical factor for users operating across varied climates where conventional powders can exhibit velocity variance of 100+ fps between cold and hot conditions.

This load suits precision rifle training, long-range hunting, and field applications where the .30-06 Springfield remains the standard. The 165-grain bullet weight sits in the sweet spot for .30-06 rifles, delivering manageable recoil while maintaining velocity consistency through intermediate-range engagements (300–600 yards). Shooters transitioning between ammunition types or working with older rifle platforms appreciate Hornady's quality control and functional compatibility across civilian and military-pattern .30-06 chambers.
