Product data sheet
GECO 8x57 IRS Plus 196 gr
8 x 57 IRS
The 8 x 57 IRS is a first-class cartridge for drillings.
Since there already was an 8 x 57 IR, the next logical step was to also
create a cartridge with rim for break-open rifles in addition to the
8 x 57 IS with the stronger 8 mm bullets. Well, the 8 x 57 IRS is the
rimmed version of the rimless 8 x 57 IS – both were introduced in
1905.
GECO is offering three loads with the 185 gr GECO Softpoint bullet,
with the 196 gr GECO Plus and with the 139 gr lead-free GECO ZERO.
GECO Plus
The GECO Plus is a precise projectile designed using the latest technology. The GECO
bonding technique is characterised by the extremely strong solder joint between the
projectile core and jacket. As a result of this the GECO Plus mushrooms with minimum
fragmentation and has excellent penetration even in heavy game or if striking bone.
The breaking points visible on the jacket control the deformation and ensure the bullets
effectiveness.
Construction GECO Plus bullet
For deep penetration with absolutely minimum carcase
damage for deer or even larger game.
1. GECO Performance Point: For precision and safe
deformation
2. GECO Grooves: For controlled effectiveness
3. GECO Bonding: For deep penetration and venison
protection
