Description

Penetration on Large Game

While modern .30-caliber hunting ammunition often focuses on lighter bullets and high-velocity expansion, hunters pursuing large game frequently prefer heavier bullets that maintain momentum and penetrate deeply.

Heavy muscle, bone, and dense tissue demand bullets that maintain structural integrity rather than fragmenting or losing mass early in penetration. Unfortunately, many manufacturers have reduced their offerings of heavy .30-caliber hunting bullets, leaving few options for shooters who prefer traditional heavy-bullet performance.

The Solution: Razorback Heavy Hunting Bullets

The Gold Country Razorback 220-grain .308 bullet was developed to provide a dependable heavy-bullet option for hunters who prioritize penetration and structural reliability.

The Razorback bullet uses a 6S ogive profile that promotes stable flight while maintaining reliable feeding in common bolt-action hunting rifles. The semi-flat nose design provides a broader initial impact surface than traditional spitzer bullets, encouraging controlled expansion while maintaining the mass and structural integrity required for deep penetration.

Combined with a flat-base design, the bullet provides consistent seating alignment and dependable accuracy across a wide range of .30-caliber rifle platforms.

Technical Identity

The Razorback 220-grain bullet is intended for use in a variety of traditional .30-caliber hunting cartridges, including:

• .30-06 Springfield

• .308 Winchester

• .300 Savage

• .30-40 Krag

• other .308 diameter rifle cartridges

The heavy 220-grain weight and high sectional density make this bullet particularly suited for hunters pursuing large game where penetration and bullet integrity are essential. The 220-grain Razorback bullet also serves as the core projectile used in Gold Country .30-06 Springfield 220 Grain Razorback hunting ammunition, where the bullet’s sectional density and structural integrity are utilized for deep-penetration performance on large game.
