338 Lapua Ammo

A powerful rifle cartridge used extensively by both military and sport shooters, .338 Lapua Magnum ammunition was developed by Scandinavian defense contractor Nammo Lapua Oy in 1989. It is used by snipers in the armed forces of dozens of countries (often with rifles from Sako or Accuracy International) due to its long-range performance. As of 2016, the record for the longest-ranged sniper kill is held by a British soldier who used an AI L115A3 rifle chambered in .338 Lapua to kill two Taliban machine gunners in Afghanistan.

.338 Lapua ammunition typically fires a heavy 200 or 250 grain bullet at a muzzle velocity of about 3,000 feet per second. Match bullets can reach 300 grains, further enhancing the projectile's long-range stability.

It's no surprise with these specs that .338 Lapua ammo is capable of taking just about any large game animal that walks the planet. Shooters using this formidable caliber, however, would be well-advised to invest in a quality recoil pad for their rifle!

    We are about to deliver a 50-megaton truth bomb right to the center of your heart: You deserve to hunt with superior 338 Lapua Magnum ammunition. We didn’t reveal this epiphany to you for no reason, though. We’ve got Ammo Inc.’s absolute best stacked in our warehouse, and our finger is currently hovering over the “Ship to Our Favorite Customer” button. And our favorite customer … is you.

    The Super Shock Tip needs no introduction. Let’s introduce it anyway. Flat shooting and deadly accurate, the SST features a streamlined polymer tip, ballistically efficient secant ogive profile, concentric jacket, and drag-minimizing boat tail. But the SST doesn’t just home in on its target. It also kills the absolute heck out of it once impact drives the hard polymer tip deep inside the SST’s supple lead core. The SST’s tapered jacket features a thin rim which facilitates wider expansion at lower velocities. If you can hit it with a 338 Lap Mag rifle, then it won’t be long until its head is mounted on your trophy wall.

    Hyperclean Technology propellant. It’s formulated to undergo virtually complete combustion on ignition, and it makes this ammo one of the cleanest-shooting on the market. Throw in Ammo Inc.’s high-quality reloadable brass shells, and you’ve got yourself a pool party.

    You’re a deliveryman of sorts. But you don’t deliver packages to houses. You deliver big bolts of lead and copper to bullseyes and steel silhouettes – and you might deliver them from over 1,000 yards away.

    If the 338 Lapua Magnum is your long-range rifle of choice, then Barnes loaded this Precision Match ammunition for the sole purpose of impressing you. This Utah-made range load features the Match Burner, an open tip match boat tail bullet that is 100% designed and built for accuracy.

    The OTM BT’s precision copper jacket has an extremely narrow aperture in its nose, which its lead core was inserted through to guarantee peerless in-flight rotational stability. The OTM’s smooth jacket is uninterrupted by a cannelure, and its boat tail is set at the angle which best reduces air resistance and wind drift. Once the 0.716 G1 BC bullet clears barrel at a rate of 2,600 feet per second, it hugs a laser-like trajectory until finally becoming subsonic at approximately 1,600 yards.

    Don’t look to the Match Burner for expanding terminal ballistics – it may have a hollow point, but it is not a hunting bullet. Do look forward to smooth functionality when you fire this ammo, and keep its primo reloadable brass cases after you’ve emptied them.
