TIPSTRIKE is constructed with a thin jacket and an aerodynamic polymer tip that ensures rapid expansion upon impact. But fast expanding, aggressive bullets always run the risk of delivering its energy too early in the game, due to thick skin, bone or other hard penetrating obstacles, TIPSTRIKE is constructed with a unique lead-lock that offers reliable penetration all the way into the vital organs of the animal.
It’s the perfect knock-down bullet for fast shots and moving targets. The first hand choice for driven hunts and other challenging hunting situation.

About the caliber
300 Win. Mag.
Introduced as late as 1963 this cartridge was soon to become the most popular in the line of .300 magnums. Unlike the predecessors .458, .264 and .338 Winchester Magnums it has a longer case and a rather short neck (.264”) in order to increase the case capacity.
As a rule of thumb the neck of a cartridge should be equal to the caliber or preferably a little longer, but experience has shown that the .300 Win. Mag. has not really suffered in this respect. It can still be used in a standard-length bolt action but this means that the heavier bullets must be seated rather deep and hereby occupy some of the powder space.
Like the other .300 magnums it is at its best for hunting larger species like moose or elk at long range. The recoil is heavy, but most shooters will be able to handle it after some practice and handloads with lighter bullets are a good choice for this purpose.
