Velocity, energy, trajectory, and 10 mph crosswind drift are published by Remington. Trajectory uses a 100-yard zero with sights 1.5 inches above the bore. Remington does not publish 100-yard-zero trajectory beyond 300 yards on these product pages, so those cells are marked “Not published.”
Bullet Design and Intended Use
The 120-grain CuT bullet uses a polymer tip and monolithic copper-alloy construction. It is a lead-free option intended for big game and long-range hunting, with the tip improving aerodynamics and initiating expansion.
