Description

Built to Stay Together at Distance

The Razorback was engineered for shooters who care less about dramatic expansion and more about what happens after the bullet arrives.

This 175-grain .277 Razorback is a long-range controlled-penetration bullet built around structural integrity, predictable deformation, and straight-line travel, rather than tip-initiated expansion or velocity-dependent upset.

It is designed to arrive intact first — then work.

Why the 175-Grain Razorback Exists

At higher sectional densities and extended ranges, many bullets either:

• begin to fragment unpredictably, or

• fail to penetrate consistently once resistance increases

The 175-grain Razorback exists to solve that problem.

Its mass, geometry, and construction are tuned to:

• maintain forward momentum

• resist premature deformation

• begin controlled upset only after penetration has started

This makes it especially well suited for long-range applications where impact velocities are variable and outcomes must remain predictable.

Serrated Jacket, Supported Lead, LD Geometry

The defining feature of the Razorback system is its serrated copper jacket, with lead carried fully to the nose.

This design:

• eliminates polymer tip failure

• delays deformation until resistance is encountered

• maintains mass and directional stability deeper into penetration

The Long-Distance (LD) ogive prioritizes aerodynamic efficiency while preserving a flat base, favoring stability, consistency, and predictable exit timing over extreme drag reduction.

This is a deliberate choice — not a compromise.

Controlled Penetration, Not Expansion Theater

This bullet is not designed to create immediate, dramatic expansion.

Instead, it delivers:

• straight-line penetration

• delayed, controlled deformation

• consistent crush through mixed tissue and bone

• reliable performance across a wide velocity range

It is built for shooters who value outcome consistency, not spectacle.

Platform Compatibility & Safety Note

This bullet is not a true flat-nose design.

While it features a flat base, the nose geometry does not meet full flat-nose requirements for unrestricted tube-magazine stacking.

For platforms such as 6.8 Western or other magazine systems where contact between bullet tips may occur:

• Use one round in the chamber

• One round in the magazine

• Do not fully load in tube or stacked tip-to-primer configurations

This guidance is provided for safety and platform compatibility clarity.

Hand-Swaged, Match-Quality Construction

Every Razorback bullet is hand swaged, ensuring:

• uniform jacket concentricity

• consistent core placement

• repeatable mass balance

Match-grade construction suitable for long-range precision shooting where repeatability matters more than raw speed.
