HORNADY 7MM-08 - 139 GR - SST - 20 RDS/BOX
The Hornady Superformance 7mm-08 Remington 139 Grain SST delivers a genuine velocity advantage of up to 200 fps over standard ammunition — without increasing chamber pressure, recoil, or muzzle blast. Engineered for hunters and precision shooters who demand more from every round, this 20-round box is a top-tier choice for deer, elk, and medium-to-large game.
- Superformance propellant boosts velocity up to 200 fps over conventional loads
- 139 Grain SST bullet delivers devastating terminal performance on game
- Muzzle velocity of 2,950 fps for a flatter trajectory and extended range
- No increase in chamber pressure, recoil, or muzzle blast over standard ammo
- Polymer tip initiates reliable, rapid expansion across a wide range of velocities
- Minimal temperature sensitivity and fouling for consistent, accurate performance
Who This Is For
This load is ideal for deer, antelope, and black bear hunters who carry a 7mm-08 Remington rifle and want maximum downrange energy without a punishing recoil penalty. It also suits long-range precision shooters seeking a factory load with genuine ballistic advantages over standard-velocity alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Hornady Superformance different from standard 7mm-08 factory ammo?
Hornady Superformance ammunition uses specially formulated progressive propellants that generate up to 200 fps more velocity than conventional loads — all without increasing chamber pressure, felt recoil, muzzle blast, or fouling. This means flatter trajectories, more retained energy at distance, and better terminal performance, while remaining safe and comfortable to shoot in any standard 7mm-08 Remington chambered rifle.
Is the 139 Grain SST suitable for deer and larger big game?
Yes. The Super Shock Tip (SST) bullet is specifically designed for medium-to-large game hunting. Its polymer tip initiates rapid, controlled expansion on impact, while the InterLock design retains core-to-jacket integrity for deep penetration. At 2,950 fps muzzle velocity, this load is highly effective on whitetail deer, mule deer, antelope, and black bear at distances well beyond 300 yards.
Will this ammunition work reliably in my factory 7mm-08 Remington rifle?
Hornady Superformance loads are engineered to SAAMI pressure specifications, so they are safe to use in any factory-chambered 7mm-08 Remington rifle in good working condition. The higher velocity is achieved through advanced propellant technology — not elevated pressure — making it compatible with standard bolt-action hunting rifles from manufacturers like Remington, Savage, Tikka, Winchester, and Ruger without any modifications.
