Hrndy Sf 257rob+p 117gr Sst 20/200

The Hornady Superformance 257 Roberts+P 117gr SST ammunition delivers consistent, purpose-built performance for hunters and precision shooters working with this classic medium-game cartridge. Each round pairs Hornady's proven 117-grain Spire Point Soft Point projectile with Superformance propellant technology to generate 2945 feet per second muzzle velocity from standard rifle barrels, maximizing energy delivery and trajectory flatness without pressuring older or lighter firearms designed for standard 257 Roberts loads.

The SST (Super Shock Tip) bullet design combines a polymer tip for consistent expansion with a lead core and boat-tail geometry optimized for aerodynamic stability at extended ranges. The 117-grain weight sits within the standard hunting weight class for the 257 Roberts+P, offering balanced penetration and expansion on medium-sized game. This ammunition comes factory-loaded in 20-round boxes, ensuring consistent quality control and eliminating the variables of hand reloading while maintaining the flexibility to work with either standard or "+P" chambered rifles.

Shooters handloading for the 257 Roberts+P or those running modern rifles in this caliber will find this ammunition suitable for deer, antelope, and similar game at moderate to extended distances. The Superformance velocity boost reduces bullet drop relative to standard 257 Roberts loads, simplifying range estimation in field conditions and improving hit probability on smaller vital zones. Hornady's manufacturing standards ensure primer reliability and consistent powder charge, critical factors when accuracy and energy retention matter.
