The Remington Core-Lokt 45-70 Govt 405 gr soft-point round brings the time-tested Core?Lok t hunting series to heavy-bore rifles, offering reliable controlled expansion and deep penetration for North American big game and brush country hunts; with a 405-grain soft point, muzzle velocity around 1600 fps and muzzle energy near 2302 ft-lbs, this load delivers the momentum and terminal performance needed for buffalo-sized game or dense-cover elk and bear situations where single-shot and lever-action platforms are common choices. Hunters who know the Core?Lok t name trust its consistent on-game results and straight-shooting trajectory at typical hunting distances, and the brass-cased, copper-colored cartridge is made in the United States to match legacy late?19th?century calibers chambered for modern ethical shots. As a full metal-jacket alternative is not needed here, the soft-point profile promotes expansion and weight retention suitable for broadside and quartering-away angles, while range officers and experienced woodsmen appreciate its predictable ballistics for trajectory planning and shot placement. If you carry a 45-70 Gov rifle into heavy cover or open prairie, this Remington Core?Lok t load is a dependable hunting choice.
