This was made possible by the double interlock-type bullet design which prevented core shedding even at very high velocity. The 8x68S was the very next round to be released with a one-interlock version of this sensational new KS bullet.





About the only thing I would disagree with is the description of th Kegel-Spitz (KS) Cone-point.

It is not a game bullet, fragile and does not hold together. Basically a varmint bullet.

Pity as RWS factory ammo with a 300 gr KS shoots extremely accurate in my .375, virtually a three shot, .38 MOA group at a 100 metres, and with considerable velocity too.

I don't understand the purpose of these heavier for calibre KS buillets, 300 gr in .375, 220 gr in 8mm etc. What are they intended for?

I kniw RWS claims the KS is a game bullet but it doesn't perform, and is too heavy as a varmint bullet.
