RWS HIT hunting cartridge cal. 8X57 JS 160grs

RWS HIT 8X57 JS 160grs

The 8x57 JS is a top-quality cartridge for distances of up to around 180 m.

It is ideal for hunting in the forest and as a driven hunt cartridge. Additionally, it is an excellent big game cartridge for Central European game. It is also very commonly used as a universal cartridge. With it, one typically experiences less hematoma formation compared to fast, weaker calibers.




The RWS HIT projectile was developed as a lead-free alternative primarily for hunters who prefer fragment-free projectiles. Despite the quick expansion of our new lead-free projectile, the expanded residual body remains mass-stable. This guarantees high penetration and reliable exit even at very high impact velocities and/or large target resistances - e.g., in bone impacts. The projectile is suitable for all native game species, but it performs best in the medium to heavy game category.
