Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters Tell me about the Hornady Interlock SP

Mostly going to get praise reports an the Interlock. We have only used them on deer but it's been all good. 150 gr 30-06 is just a hammer on them. 139 gr FB and BT in both 7mm-08 and 7x57 have given very good service. Only one we caught hit a doe quartering to between the left shoulder and neck. Found the bullet, a boat tail, against the femur in the right ham. That was a 7x57 factory load.

And as 260Remguy says the 129 gr 6.5 is a heck of a bullet. Sons Model 7 SS in .260 will do an inch or less at 100 with max charge of H4831SC. And it just flat kills deer. Had my quickest kill on a deer with it. Big doe at about 30 feet in front of me and I didn't want to blow up too much meat so made sure I hit her behind the shoulder about midline. Nothing but lungs. She fell dead and didn't wiggle and I don't think I even hit ribs.
