Sako Gamehead .223 Rem 55gr SP 20 Rounds

Description

Sako Gamehead is the go-to choice for hunters who demand rapid expansion, high shock power, and match-grade consistency in a hunting load. Manufactured in Finland to Sako’s exacting standards, this Sako .223 Rem 55gr Spitzer-nosed Soft Point (SP) cartridge is engineered specifically for accurate hits on small game and varmint, making it an excellent all-purpose hunting bullet where instant stopping power is critical.

Featuring a time-tested construction, the Gamehead bullet combines a rugged jacket with a non-bonded soft lead core. This design ensures the bullet mushrooms rapidly upon impact, delivering massive energy transfer to the target while minimising the risk of over-penetration or run-offs.

Why Choose Sako Gamehead?

1. Rapid & Reliable Expansion: The exposed soft lead tip is designed for immediate mushrooming. When it hits, it expands violently, creating a large wound channel that stops foxes, coyotes, and feral pests in their tracks.

2. Legendary Sako Brass: Sako ammunition is famous for the quality of its brass cases. Uniform, durable, and precisely annealed, these cases are highly sought after by reloaders for their longevity and consistency. Buying factory Sako ammo is an investment in future handloads.

3. Speed and Flat Trajectory: With a muzzle velocity of 3,150 feet per second (960 metres per second), this 55gr load shoots flat and fast. It is an ideal weight for the standard twist rates (1:12″ to 1:8″) found in most bolt-action hunting rifles and AR-15 platforms.

4. Finnish Precision: Every Sako round is inspected to ensure consistent powder charges and seating depths. Sako’s dedication to quality control means you get reliable ignition and accuracy, even in extreme conditions.
