FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What does Racehead mean?

Racehead is Sako’s match-ammunition designation. This load uses an open-tip, boat-tail projectile engineered for consistency and target accuracy.

Will this ammunition remain subsonic in every rifle?

Not necessarily. Its published velocity is approximately 1,050fps, but actual velocity varies with barrel length, temperature and the individual firearm. Some combinations may exceed the local speed of sound.

Is the Racehead projectile designed for hunting?

No. It is a match projectile and is not designed to provide controlled hunting expansion. Select purpose-built hunting ammunition appropriate for the intended game and local regulations.
