Lede Core Lokt Handgun

The "deadliest mushroom in the woods" is now available for handgun hunters everywhere. Remington Ammunition has announced the introduction of a dedicated version of Core-Lokt engineered specifically for big-game handgun hunting.

Core-Lokt Handgun provides deer, hog and black-bear hunters with Core-Lokt terminal performance. The projectile’s hollow point is engineered to give excellent expansion at handgun velocities, along with high weight retention on target. Designed for accuracy from pistol-length barrels, the cartridges provide ideal terminal results fired from semi-automatic handguns or revolvers. Core-Lokt Handgun ammunition also features nickel-plated cases for dependability.

“For well over 75 years, Core-Lokt’s been ready to get the job done on any big game hunt,” said Remington Ammunition’s director of product management Nick Sachse. “It’s time handgun hunters had a Core-Lokt offering for their season too. Big Green is proud to give hunters even more options to hunt with the Deadliest Mushroom.”

Core-Lokt Handgun will initially be available in four cartridges:

  • R20220 / 357 Magnum Core-Lokt / $42.99 MSRP
  • R20225 / 41 Remington Magnum Core-Lokt / $40.99 MSRP
  • R20228 / 44 Remington Magnum Core-Lokt / $52.99 MSRP
  • R20231 / 10mm Auto Core-Lokt / $52.99 MSRP

Attendees of SHOT Show 2024 will receive a first-hand look at the Core-Lokt Handgun line at the Remington booth #11838.

5 Things I Wish Someone Had Told Me Before My First Elk Hunt

I grew up hunting whitetails in the Midwest, and while I thought I was in “elk shape” on my first western hunt, I quickly learned that chasing elk at high elevation requires an entirely different level of fitness. You’ll likely hike for hours, oftentimes at high elevation, and many of trails you’ll follow are filled with deadfall and uneven rocks. If you’re fortunate enough to fill your tag, the real work starts.
