The Remington Core-Lokt 6mm Creedmoor delivers 100 grain jacketed soft point projectiles at 3000 feet per second — a hunting load engineered for medium to large game at ranges where the 6mm Creedmoor shines. Since 1939, Core-Lokt has remained the best-selling Remington hunting line, built around a single engineering principle: mechanically lock the lead core to the jacket, control expansion on impact, retain mass through bone and tissue. This load produces 1998 foot-pounds of muzzle energy and a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.272, balancing trajectory with terminal performance. Brass cases accept boxer primers and reload without issue. Box of 20 rounds.
Load Profile
The 100 grain JSP exits the muzzle supersonic and maintains velocity downrange — lighter than traditional 6mm Creedmoor match projectiles but heavier than varmint loads. The tapered copper jacket expands to approximately twice its original diameter on impact, creating large wound channels while the mechanically locked core resists fragmentation. Non-corrosive boxer primers seat in reloadable brass cases. Country of origin: United States.
