Design Features and Ballistic Advantages

CoreLokt’s hallmark is its tapered copper jacket mechanically locked to the lead core. That construction yields consistent expansion across a broad velocity spectrum, reducing the likelihood of over-expansion at high impact speeds or under-expansion at longer ranges. High weight retention means deeper penetration and better transfer of energy into vital tissues—key for ethical hunting. Available in soft point and pointed soft point profiles, the lineup covers a full spread of bullet weights to match different game and rifle platforms.

Why the Brand and Model Matter

Remington has been a staple in rifle ammunition for decades; the REMINGTON CORE-LOKT line continues that legacy with a design validated in the field. Model offerings listed as Various indicate broad caliber and weight choices, making it easy to select the right round for whitetail, elk, or other centerfire hunting applications. For hands-on shooters, the predictable terminal behavior is what sets this round apart.

Field Applications and Tactical Considerations

Use CoreLokt for medium to large game where controlled expansion and penetration are required. Lighter weights are suitable for thinner-skinned game and smaller caliber rifles, while heavier bullets in the line provide the sectional density needed for larger animals and longer shots. Since the product spans virtually every centerfire hunting caliber, match bullet weight to your rifle’s twist rate and your typical engagement ranges for best results.
