.366 | 225gr | RWS Doppelkern
by RWS
The RWS Doppel-Kern DK bullet is engineered specifically for hunting applications, featuring an innovative dual-core construction. This bullet consists of a front core designed for rapid fragmentation upon impact, facilitating immediate shock and tissue disruption, while a rear core retains its mass for deep penetration and critical weight retention. This ensures reliable expansion across various impact velocities, catering to hunters engaged in both close-range and distance shooting. Suitable calibers include popular choices like .308 Winchester and .30-06 Springfield, making it an excellent option for medium to large game such as deer, wild boar, and even elk. Typically maintaining a high degree of weight retention, the Doppel-Kern DK consistently delivers lethal results by creating a large wound channel. For handloaders, the DK's compatibility with a wide range of powders and seating depths ensures flexibility in achieving optimal velocity and accuracy, promising consistent ballistic performance. This bullet is a versatile choice for hunters seeking a balance of expansion and penetration.
