“projectile”

You might be able to save a little bit of money by building your own arrows, but the No. 1 priority is to produce a more accurate projectile.

Winchester’s new Deer Season slug looks similar to a traditional Foster-style slug, but is paired with a rear stabilizer that is inserted into the heel of the projectile, resulting in increased accuracy.

Hornady has reengineered its popular GMX projectile to be more accurate, aerodynamic and deadly. The new CX monolithic copper-alloy bullet sports a higher BC, and boasts devastating terminal performance with 95 percent weight retention.

The combination of the 210-grain Terminal Ascent and the 300 PRC is a big-game hunter’s dream: a big case capable of fine accuracy, mated with a fine projectile, fully capable of great performance at any range.

The 6.5 Creedmoor is arguably the most popular rifle cartridge of the 21st century, but how does it perform on big game? These detailed accounts include pertinent information such as shot angle, distance, projectile used and more.

The Tipped Triple-Shock is a descendant of the original Barnes X-Bullet. Like the X-Bullet the Triple-Shock is an all-copper projectile with a small hollow cavity at the front. But, unlike its predecessor, the caliber diameter body of the Tipped Triple-Shock is ringed with grooves to help reduce fouling and improve accuracy.

Federal Premium re-entered the muzzleloader projectile market in a big way last year, with the introduction of its revolutionary Trophy Copper Muzzleloader Bullet. Featuring the company's innovative B.O.R. (Bullet Obturating Ramp) Lock MZ system, the new submission was crafted to provide top-notch accuracy in a non-sabot design. It served as a game changer for the industry, and Federal hasn't slowed pace: in 2016, the folks in Anoka will be rolling out a lead version. Here are five things you need to know.

In this age of ballistic superiority, where our projectiles more closely resemble the Apollo-era spacecraft, where the bullet continues to evolve in both shape and method of construction, the round nose projectile is often overlooked as if it were a relic of a bygone era. Don't let that fool you, though. The good, old-fashioned round nose bullet, which seems to have been passed over in the history of bullet evolution, is still a viable choice for many hunters.
