Frequently Asked Questions

Does 120A mean a 120-grain bullet?

No. 120A is the Sako bullet code. The actual bullet weight is 8 g or 123 gr.

Is Speedhead a hunting cartridge?

Speedhead is primarily a full metal jacket cartridge designed for training and target shooting. For hunting, choose a bullet that meets the legal requirements for game animals.

Are there 20 or 50 cartridges in the pack?

The Range pack with this product code contains 50 cartridges.

Does the same sight setting work for hunting ammunition?

Not necessarily. The lighter 123 gr Speedhead bullet may hit a significantly different point of impact compared to a 150–180 gr hunting bullet.

When is Sako Speedhead the right choice?

Speedhead is suitable for regular training when you need a factory cartridge in .30-06 Springfield with consistent performance and a relatively light bullet. The 50-round pack is convenient for longer range days.

For hunting, choose Gamehead, Super Hammerhead, Hammerhead, or Powerhead Blade, depending on the game. For long-range competition shooting, a precision bullet with a higher ballistic coefficient may be more suitable.

Recommendations

We recommend using Speedhead for regular practice of shooting technique, positions, and trigger work. The light 123 gr bullet produces a different recoil and trajectory compared to heavier hunting bullets, so it does not replace final test shots with hunting ammunition.

Before hunting, always shoot a separate control group with the hunting cartridge you plan to use. After a long training session, let the barrel cool down, as a hot barrel can change the point of impact and increase dispersion. Use hearing protection and safety glasses when shooting, and store ammunition in a dry, temperature-stable, and properly locked location.
