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 30-40 Krag (30 U.S. Army) was adopted as America's primary military rifle cartridge in 1892 in the Krag-Jorgensen rifle. Fielding of the Krag was never quite complete; in the Spanish-American War it fought alongside out-dated trapdoor Springfields. Its service life was also short; in just 11 years it was replaced by the 1903 Springfield, initially in 30-03 and, after 1906, in 30-06. Perhaps because of surplus Krag rifles that flooded the market the 30-40 Krag became an extremely popular hunting cartridge and remained so until at least the 1940s. The Krag rifle is legendary for its butter-smooth action, and its rimmed 30-40 cartridge was also chambered to Winchester's Model 1895 lever-action and numerous single-shots. Current loadings are a 180-grain bullet at 2430 feet per second, still a potent and effective cartridge for game up to elk. New rifles in 30-40 Krag are unusual today, but ammunition remains readily available. —
