Remington Core-Lokt was the first and original controlled expansion bullet, and remains the standard of big-game bullet performance. Its level of reliability is only exceeded by the amount of game it has taken over the years. Remington has been the leading innovator in modern centerfire cartridges - not only the bullets, but also Kleanbore, the first non-corrosive primers; the brass historically preferred by serious reloaders, and best blends of the finest powders available.
Express Core-Lokt Pointed Soft Point Bullet
Unquestionably the best all-around choice for modern big-game hunting. By adding a sleeker nose profile and higher ballistic coefficient to the dependable, controlled expansion characteristics of the Core-Lokt soft point, it combines exceptional bullet penetration and performance with flatter trajectory and higher down-range velocity and energy. The result is reliable expansion of almost 2x caliber diameter at virtually all ranges and practical velocities.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
The 280 Remington is a 7mm (.284-inch bullet) created by necking down the .30-06 case. Wildcatted for decades, it was introduced by Remington in 1957. Initial loads, intended for use in Remington's slide-action and semiautomatic rifles, were mild, which slowed the cartridge's acceptance. This has long been fixed, with current loads including a 140-grain bullet at 3000 feet per second and 150-grain bullet at 2890. The 280 is still not nearly as popular as the 270 Winchester or 30-06, but it has an extremely loyal following, including bulletmaker Steve Hornady and gunwriter Jim Carmichel. It is an ideal cartridge for deer and mountain game, very adequate for elk, and has been described as "the best cartridge based on the 30-06 case." Ammunition is available from most suppliers, and it is chambered by numerous rifle manufacturers.
