Beretta USA Brings Sako Cartridges to the US

Beretta is bringing the brand-new generation of Sako Cartridges into the US market. This launch will include six new and innovative cartridge families developed by Sako, including TRG Precision, the innovative, lead-free Powerhead Blade, Gamehead Pro, Gamehead, Speedhead, and Super Hammerhead.

Since 1928, Sako Cartridges has strived to maintain the same uncompromising combination of performance & craftsmanship found in their rifles. Utilizing the latest computer-aided R&D and CNC manufacturing methods, each case goes through a series of automatic and manual inspections to ensure the high-quality cases become the most accurate and consistent cartridges available to the modern shooter.

In addition, due to a proprietary heat treatment method and zero impurities of the case material, Sako cartridges have the industry’s highest reloadability and pressure resistance, maximizing the lifespan and safety of any rifle.

“The whole team at Sako is excited to introduce our range of ammunition into the US market. With a diverse group of products including the TRG line of Precision Cartridges and the innovative Powerhead Blade lead free family, Sako Cartridges are made using world class components to give reliability, accuracy, and repeatability – no matter if you’re on the range or in the back country,” Phillip Jones, Rifle, Ammunition, and Premium Guns Product Manager, said.

Super Hammerhead

With a bonded core that provides high weight retention and effective penetration, the Super Hammerhead is a heavy jacketed, strong, and non-fragmenting bullet that ensures controlled expansion. It is boat-tailed for high ballistic efficiency, which causes a flatter trajectory. It was developed and tested by Sako ballistic laboratories first, followed by actual extensive big game hunting tests. The bullet is designed for big game hunting at short to medium distances and is available in 6.5 x 55 SE, 6.5 Creedmoor, .308 Win, .270 Win, and .30-06 SPRG.
