Remington Core-Lokts have a cannelure, as do the Hornady Interlock RN. Anyway....load 'em up!



Definitely look like Speer RN bullets. Out to 300 yards they kill like nobody's business. I've ran 180 and 220 grain in my 06's and 154's out of a 7-08. They are easy to get to shoot well and expand nicely and easy but so do polymer tipped bullets such as SST's and ballistic tips with better BC. Unfortunately all they do that a spitzer won't is look nostalgic but sometimes that's enough.

Keep your powder dry and stay frosty my friends.
