Copper Bear Load Data

Copperbear bullets are premium, lead-free hunting projectiles manufactured in Sweden by ExCaliber AB, designed to combine match-grade accuracy with reliable terminal performance. These bullets are made from a single piece of copper (monolithic construction), making them environmentally friendly and compliant with modern non-lead hunting regulations. Their design typically features a hollow-point boat-tail (HPBT) configuration, which enhances aerodynamics and stability in flight while promoting controlled expansion upon impact.

A defining characteristic of Copperbear bullets is their balance between precision and terminal effectiveness. They are engineered to expand to roughly twice their original diameter while retaining nearly 100% of their weight, resulting in deep penetration, consistent wound channels, and minimal fragmentation.  Additionally, features such as reduced bearing surface and optimized grooves help lower barrel friction and recoil, improving shooting comfort and barrel longevity. Overall, Copperbear bullets are positioned in the high-performance segment of the hunting market, appealing to reloaders and hunters who prioritize accuracy, sustainability, and reliable performance across a wide range of calibers.
