Remington Core-Lokt 6mm Creedmoor 100 Grain Core-Lokt Pointed Soft Point Centerfire Rifle Ammunition
Since 1939, more hunters have relied on Remington Core-Lokt than any other big game ammunition, and for good reason. It has filled more tags on more continents than nearly any other load. Core-Lokt is the original controlled expansion bullet, and its time-proven performance has made it a top choice in hunting ammunition for over 75 years.
The 6mm Creedmoor platform brings modern precision to this classic hunting design. Many hunters choose 6mm creedmoor ammo like this Core-Lokt load for reliable field performance and consistent accuracy in real-world conditions.
The Core-Lokt bullet features a tapered copper jacket that is locked to a solid lead core. This design delivers controlled expansion, up to 2X expansion, and strong weight retention for consistent on-game results. This makes it a dependable choice when evaluating 6mm creedmoor ballistics in hunting applications.
Available in soft point and pointed soft point versions, Core-Lokt is offered in a range of bullet weights for virtually every centerfire hunting caliber. This 100 grain version in 6mm creedmoor rifles provides balanced velocity and terminal performance for large game hunting.
With a muzzle velocity of 3000 ft/s and muzzle energy of 1999 ft-lbs, this load performs reliably in the field. It is often compared in discussions such as 6mm creedmoor vs 243 and 6mm creedmoor vs 6.5 creedmoor, especially for hunters choosing between flatter trajectory and heavier bullet options.
The G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.272 provides stable flight performance for ethical shot placement at hunting distances. When reviewing 6mm creedmoor load data, this load stands out for its balance of speed, energy, and controlled expansion.
Core performance features include:
- Core-Lokt controlled expansion bullet
- Tapered copper jacket bonded to lead core

This ammunition is designed for large game hunting and is best suited for field use rather than match competition. It remains one of the most trusted hunting options for shooters using the 6mm Creedmoor platform.
