No. 110G is Sako's bullet code. The actual weight of this Gamehead cartridge bullet is 3.56 g or 55 gr. Is Gamehead a hunting bullet? Yes. It is a pointed soft point bullet with a thin jacket and unbonded core, designed to expand rapidly upon impact. Which to choose: 3.2 or 3.56 g Gamehead? The 3.2 g bullet offers slightly higher muzzle velocity. The heavier 3.56 g bullet has a higher ballistic coefficient and may retain speed better at distance. The final choice depends on your rifle's accuracy, barrel twist rate, and hunting conditions. Can the same sight settings be used for both bullet weights? Not without checking. Cartridges with different weights, velocities, and ballistic coefficients can have different points of impact. After changing cartridges, always check your sight settings at the range. When is the Sako Gamehead 3.56 g the right choice? This cartridge suits hunters who want a fast, but slightly heavier, semi-jacketed bullet in .22-250 Rem caliber. The higher ballistic coefficient makes the 3.56 g version a solid choice for open terrain and moderate crosswinds. If maximum muzzle velocity is your priority, the 3.2 g Gamehead may be more suitable. For training or competition shooting, it is recommended to use cartridges with full metal jacket or match bullets designed for that purpose. We recommend We recommend comparing the 3.2 and 3.56 g Gamehead in your rifle under controlled range conditions. A heavier bullet is not automatically more accurate, but may suit a particular barrel twist rate and wind conditions better. Evaluate groupings of several shots, not just a single successful hit. Due to rapid bullet expansion, always choose a clear shooting sector and appropriate target area. The light semi-jacketed bullet is not intended for penetrating heavy bones or for hunting game that requires greater bullet mass or impact energy. Always check current hunting regulations. After introducing a new production batch, verify the point of impact and record the sight settings suitable for your rifle. Store cartridges dry, in the original packaging, and in a properly locked storage.
