One Cartridge not a box: 360 Buckhammer produced by Remington Arms Company, using new Remington brass cases with “R-P 360 BUCKHAMMER ” Headstamp and loaded with 200 Grain JSP (Jacketed Soft Point) bullets.
History of the 360 Remington Buckhammer:
Introduce by Remington Arms Company in mid 2023 as a “rimmed”,“straight walled” cartridge for lever-action rifles and maybe likely bolt-action rifles in the future. I would say a tapered case or similar in design to much older tapered calibers, and designed for use out to 200 yards, and to be used mostly in the states that allow only straight wall cases that produce less velocity which means bullets that travel less distance to “allegedly” help stop accidents in rural residential areas due to stray bullets. Remington’s Web-Site reads:
“360 Buckhammer is straight up better than other straight wall cartridges. The ultimate deer hunting straight wall cartridge, 360 BHMR is accurate and deadly out to 200 yards and optimized for lever action rifles. Easy to shoot with energy, velocity and drop similar to 30-30 Win, 360 Buckhammer is the best hunting cartridge when you want to use a lever action rifle.
Buy 360 BHMR ammo direct from Remington.com or at your local ammo dealer. Remington offers two 360 Buckhammer loads in trusted Core-Lokt. Options include a 180gr soft point, or a 200gr soft point. Federal Ammunition offers 360 Buckhammer Power-Shok and 360 Buckhammer HammerDown.
Mild and pleasant to shoot, the 360 Buckhammer shoots like a light load shot from a 30-30 Winchester lever action rifle. Both the 180gr and the 200gr 360 BHMR Core-Lokt loads recoil at roughly 14.1 ft-lbs, less than 30-30 Winchester (16.3 ft-lbs) and much less than 450 Bushmaster (22.2 ft-lbs)
