Remington's new centerfire ammunition for 2026
New for 2026, Remington Ammunition announces several centerfire rifle and handgun additions to its already vast and appreciated product line, including three loadings of the 7mm Backcountry hunting cartridge – an increasingly popular option on the US market.
Two new product lines – Subsonic Rifle and Hard Cast – are being launched, along with numerous new options will be added to the Core-Lokt PSP and Core-Lokt Handgun product lines.
The 7mm Backcountry high-performance cartridge utilizes the proprietary Peak Alloy case technology to deliver high velocities from shorter barrels, making it ideal for hunting with suppressors; three new loads – including Core-Lokt 175-grain, Core-Lokt Tipped 175-grain, and Premier Long Range Speer Impact 175-grain – will make it even more palatable.
The new Subsonic Rifle Boat-tail Hollow Point (BHP) loads include .360 Buckhammer 250-grain, .308 Winchester 190-grain, and .45-70 Government 300-grain options.
These three popular hunting cartridges are loaded to subsonic muzzle velocities to provide consistent and dependable performance when shot through suppressors.
The new Core-Lokt PSP loads include .300 Blackout 130-grain, 6.5mm PRC 140-grain, and 7mm PRC 175-grain options, for hard-hitting performance on large quarry at typical hunting ranges.
The Pointed Soft Point (PSP) is a traditional cup and core bullet; the jacket is locked to a lead core, delivering consistent weight retention and excellent expansion.
For handgun hunters, the all-new Hard Cast line includes 10mm Auto 200-grain, .44 Magnum 260-grain, .357 Magnum 180-grain, and 9mm Luger +P 145-grain loads.
Loaded with hard-cast, waxed-groove alloy bullets for ultimate penetration and a nickel-plated case for reliability, these four loads are ideal for dangerous game defense and for protection against large wildlife when out in the great outdoors.
Also new is a Remington Core-Lokt Handgun JHP load in .45 Long Colt, with a 237-grain bullet.
Classic Core-Lokt bullets feature a unique jacketed hollow-point (JHP) design, coupled with reliable nickel-plated cases, delivering excellent performance in hunting handguns or revolvers.
Finally, the Remington "We The People" line includes a mix of popular calibers packaged in 250-rounds boxes and limited-run commemorative buckets.
The Remington "We The People" lineup, launched to celebrate the 250th anniversary of America's independence, will include popular rifle, handgun, rimfire, and shotgun loads packaged in collector-focused bulk formats that will also be perfect for plinking and target shooting.
Each entry in the "We The People" line is available in a limited-edition run, and manufactured to strict Remington canons of performance and dependability.
