Hornady 30 Cal 150gr InterLock RN

The Hornady 30 Cal 150gr InterLock RN (Round Nose) bullet is a proven performer designed for medium-range hunting applications. Known for its classic design and consistent terminal ballistics, this bullet delivers reliable performance on game thanks to Hornady’s time-tested engineering and rigorous quality standards. Whether you’re pursuing whitetail in dense timber or other medium-sized game, this 150-grain InterLock RN provides effective expansion and deep penetration to ensure quick, ethical kills.

This bullet features an exposed lead tip, which initiates controlled expansion upon impact. Its secant ogive profile—the hallmark of Hornady’s efficient aerodynamic designs—promotes flatter trajectories and stability in flight, even though the round nose design is intended for shorter distances and magazine-fed rifles where overall cartridge length is a concern.

What sets this bullet apart is the InterLock® ring—Hornady’s signature design feature that mechanically locks the jacket to the lead core. This locking ring helps retain mass and energy upon expansion, preventing core-jacket separation and maximizing the bullet’s penetration through bone and tissue. Hunters can count on this feature to maintain weight and create consistent wound channels that lead to clean harvests.

INNER GROOVES
Strategically placed grooves weaken the jacket at precise points, promoting uniform expansion—even at varying velocities or extended ranges.

TAPERED JACKET
The bullet’s jacket gradually thickens from tip to base, allowing for controlled expansion on impact while maintaining structural integrity for deeper penetration.

ONE-PIECE CORE
The solid lead core maintains its structure throughout the terminal cycle. Unlike bullets with divided cores, the InterLock® design ensures high weight retention and consistent energy transfer.

CANNELURE
A precise cannelure provides a secure crimping point, enhancing accuracy and stability while also working in tandem with the InterLock® ring to maintain bullet integrity during expansion.

INTERLOCK® RING
Embedded in the core, this raised ring helps keep the jacket and core together as the bullet mushrooms, providing the penetration and knockdown power hunters rely on in the field.

The Hornady 30 Cal 150gr InterLock RN is a top choice for traditional hunters who value consistent terminal ballistics, rugged reliability, and proven design. Perfect for use in lever guns, bolt actions, or semi-automatics chambered in classic .30-caliber cartridges like .30-30 Win or .308 Win at moderate ranges.
