The Hornady 6.5MM 123 gr SST is a hunting projectile for medium game such as goats, pigs and deer. It measures .264" in diameter with a G1 ballistic coefficient of .510, and it suits deer and larger-game hunters who want fast, reliable expansion at typical rifle velocities. Hornady lists this weight for the Grendel/LBC/Lapua.
The SST (Super Shock Tip) is a polymer-tipped hunting bullet built to deliver heavy shock on impact. The hard tip drives into the lead core like a wedge to start rapid but controlled expansion, and a secant ogive with a boat-tail base gives a flat trajectory and good stability. A mid-body cannelure and the InterLock ring mechanically lock the core to the jacket, which keeps the bullet together during expansion for high weight retention and a good chance of a complete pass-through.
