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 Soft Point Bullet
The Core-Lokt design locks the progressively heavier jacket mid-section to the lead core, preventing separation, yet allowing maximum energy transfer. The result is a bullet that stays together on impact, expands in a controlled manner, and mushrooms uniformly to nearly twice the original diameter.

The 8X57mm Mauser (8mm Mauser, 7.92mm Mauser) was introduced by Peter Paul Mauser in 1888. Though most famous as Germany's military cartridge through both world wars it was adopted by numerous countries and its .470-inch rim and base diameter established the standard size for most non-magnum rimless cartridges to this day. The original bullet diameter, designated "J", used a .318-inch bullet. In 1904 this was changed to .323-inch, the diameter we consider "8mm" today. The larger diameter is designated "JS" or "S." With older rifles it is important to know which bullet diameter, as all American and most European factory loads use .323-inch bullets. The 8X57mm remains a popular and common hunting cartridge in Europe and is often compared to the 30-06. With less case capacity it is a bit slower, but it is typically loaded with heavier bullets and has more frontal area, so its many fans believe it hits harder. It is certainly adequate for any game that one might hunt with a 30-06.
