That's why many hunters choose Grand Slam. We build our premium game bullet from the ground up for tough hunting conditions. Take the jacket. It's precision-drawn from gilding metal to build the critical shank section up to 45 percent thicker than our regular bullets. Then we taper the mouth to a fine edge and flute it to allow symmetrical expansion over a wide range of velocities.

And then the cores. Yes, cores! Grand Slam has two different lead alloys. The rear core is formed from tough, five percent antimony lead to resist deformation. We lock it in place with a fold of jacket metal and then pour a softer nose core using our exclusive Hot-Cor process. Final forming at low swage pressures leaves a long nose for aerodynamics and a protected tip to avoid potential recoil damage in the magazine. Retained weights of bullets recovered from game are commonly over 80 percent.

You can see that Grand Slam costs more because more goes into each bullet. But considering the cost of a dream hunt, Grand Slams are the best choice. Grand Slams for North American game are available in calibers from 243 to 375.
