Hornady 284 Cal 7mm 162gr InterLock BTSP

The Hornady 284 Cal 7mm 162gr InterLock BTSP (Boat Tail Soft Point) is a trusted bullet among big game hunters who require precision, controlled expansion, and deep penetration. Designed with Hornady’s renowned InterLock® technology, this bullet ensures exceptional terminal performance across a wide range of hunting scenarios. Ideal for cartridges like 7mm Rem Mag, 7mm-08 Rem, and 7mm Mauser, this 162 grain projectile is built for taking down elk, deer, and similar game with confidence and consistency.

The InterLock BTSP design includes a lead tip that initiates expansion on impact, while the streamlined secant ogive and boat tail profile deliver excellent ballistic performance, including flat trajectories and minimal wind drift. Whether you’re hunting at close range or pushing out to extended distances, this bullet provides the consistent accuracy and energy transfer needed for quick, ethical kills.

Engineered for hunters who demand high retained weight, large wound channels, and minimal bullet failure, the 162gr InterLock BTSP combines rugged construction with proven performance in the field. This is a versatile choice for traditional bolt-action rifles or modern sporting rifles chambered in 7mm calibers.

INNER GROOVES
Strategically placed grooves weaken the upper jacket to initiate consistent and controlled expansion even at lower velocities or longer distances.

TAPERED JACKET
Carefully engineered tapering allows for uniform expansion without compromising structural strength, enabling deeper penetration on larger game animals.

ONE-PIECE CORE
A solid, undivided lead core resists fragmentation, ensuring the bullet retains weight and energy upon impact to deliver maximum terminal damage.

CANNELURE
The crimping groove enhances load uniformity and works with the InterLock® ring to keep the core and jacket securely bonded during expansion.

INTERLOCK® RING
A raised ring embedded into the lead core mechanically locks the jacket and core together, preventing separation and ensuring mass retention during high-energy impacts.

With reliable accuracy, high retained energy, and proven effectiveness in real-world hunting conditions, the Hornady 284 Cal 7mm 162gr InterLock BTSP is an excellent option for those looking to maximize the performance of their 7mm rifle across varied terrain and game sizes.
