About Plated Soft Point Ammunition
These loadings feature lead bullets with a metallic plating and exposed lead tip designed for controlled expansion while reducing barrel fouling. Developed to combine the cost-effectiveness of lead bullets with improved characteristics, the Plated Soft Point bullet incorporates a thin metallic coating that minimizes lead deposits in the barrel while the exposed lead tip ensures reliable expansion upon impact. The PSP design offers enhanced feeding reliability and reduced maintenance requirements compared to unplated lead bullets while providing improved terminal performance through controlled expansion. These types of loadings are well-suited for hunting small to medium game and target shooting where controlled expansion, reduced barrel fouling, and cost-effective ammunition are desired for effective performance and extended shooting sessions.Common Plated Soft Point Calibers
- .243 Winchester:The .243 Winchester cartridge was introduced in 1955 as a result of a collaboration between Warren Page and Winchester. It was developed from the .308 Winchester case and necked down to accept a .243β (6mm) diameter projectile. The .243 Winchester is a versatile cartridge that is well-suited for both varmint and big game hunting due to its flat trajectory, manageable recoil, and excellent accuracy. The high velocities and flat-shooting trajectory of the cartridge make it well-suited to precision shooting use cases. The round was also utilized by many competitors in marksmanship competitions, helping 6mm cartridges grow in popularity in this use case.
- .223 Remington:The .223 Remington, often referred to as the .223 Rem, is one of the most common rifle calibers in the United States. As an intermediate rifle cartridge, .223 Rem loadings will produce a light recoil impulse and feature a light projectile. The rounds will typically yield a high velocity and feature a flat trajectory. While the cartridge and its NATO cousin have seen duty use, the .223 Rem has also established itself as a capable round as far as target shooting and hunting go as well. The round is enjoyed by shooters, both new and experienced, due to the light recoil and overall performance afforded by the cartridge.
- .30-06 Springfield:Like the name suggests, the .30-06 Springfield was developed by Springfield Armory. The cartridge made its debut in 1906 and was adopted by the military that same year. The β06β in the name actually refers to 1906, the year of the cartridgeβs introduction. The round was borne from a desire to replace the .30-40 Krag cartridge which was being eclipsed by other service rifles at the time. Unlike spitzer-tipped (pointed projectile) cartridges such as the .303 British and 8mm Mauser, the .30-40 Krag featured a round-nosed projectile. The cartridge has been utilized in rifles and machine guns in conflicts across the globe since its inception. Beyond use in armed conflicts, the cartridge has been enjoyed by hunters and target shooters. The cartridge has been utilized by hunters across the globe throughout history. Notably, President Theodore Roosevelt used a .30-06 Springfield chambered rifle on safari in Africa. At the end of the day, the cartridge is a round which has been proven in both combat and in the field that continues to be popular today.
- 7mm-08 Remington:7mm-08 Remington is a versatile and efficient rifle cartridge developed by necking down the .308 Winchester case to accept a 7mm (.284 inch) bullet. The 7mm-08 as we know it today is actually a near-identical copy of the 7mm/308 wildcat cartridge from 1958. Introduced in 1980, the 7mm-08 quickly gained popularity among hunters and competitive shooters for its flat trajectory, moderate recoil, and impressive accuracy. It is well-suited for hunting a wide range of game, from varmints to large deer.
