Remington core lokt

The only problem with Remington Core Lokts today is the price, I guess I'm just not up to date on ammunition costs today. Every time I pull out my old stock the pricing on the boxes makes me smile. It's the same with primers, my current Magnum rifle Remington primers has a $14 sticker on the box of 1,000. Sometimes I think what investments I made 20 years ago ...lol

I agree. Before the Scamdemic, Remington 225gr. .338WM Core Lokts were $52/box here. Barnes TTSXs were $46/box. Go figure. Now, since Vista Outdoors owns Remington ammo, they put a one cent plastic tip on the Core Lokt and want at least half again the cost for a box for any cartridge. Forget the .338s at their pricing.

I’ve actually shot all of my elk here with my Browning A Bolt .338WM with 225gr. Core Lokts. Until I became an AH member a few years ago and started reading all the bullet threads, I didn’t know the Core Lokts don’t work on game. Especially in Africa. I should have known better. LOL

In addition, my hunting buddy and his son went to Newfoundland four years ago and took my Browning as a “back up” rifle. Well, they ended up using my .338 with 225gr. Core Lokts and killed two moose, a caribou and a black bear with it. All one shot kills. Surprising because usually they can’t hit an old Chevy at 100 yds with THEIR rifles. LOL
