The .45-70 Government 405 gr Core-Lokt SP Remington (29473) load delivers traditional heavy-bullet performance for shooters who rely on proven penetration and controlled expansion. It uses the Core-Lokt Soft Point (SP) projectile, which mechanically locks the jacket to the lead core. Because of this construction, the bullet expands in a predictable manner while retaining mass. Many shooters choose 405-grain .45-70 loads for their momentum, stability, and authoritative downrange impact from lever-action and single-shot rifles.
Remington loads the 29473 to a muzzle velocity of 1,330 fps and a muzzle energy of 1,591 ft-lbs from standard test barrels. These ballistics emphasize deep penetration and straight-line performance rather than speed. As a result, shooters experience steady recoil and consistent point-of-impact at typical .45-70 distances. In addition, the heavy 405-grain bullet weight delivers excellent momentum, which supports reliable performance through dense tissue and heavy bone. Consequently, this load performs well in wooded terrain and close-to-mid-range applications.
This product ships as 20 rounds per box and 10 boxes per case (200 rounds total). Therefore, buyers receive sufficient volume for sight-in, extended range sessions, and seasonal use. Remington manufactures this ammunition with reloadable brass cases and non-corrosive Boxer primers, ensuring dependable ignition and smooth feeding. Furthermore, Remington’s long-standing quality standards emphasize uniform velocities and consistent accuracy from lot to lot.
While optimized for hunting and field use, the .45-70 Government 405 gr Core-Lokt SP Remington (29473) also appeals to shooters who value classic cartridge performance. Ultimately, it delivers mass, penetration, and trusted Remington reliability in a time-tested .45-70 load.
