The Berger 338 Caliber 250 Grain Hybrid OTM Tactical bullet is one of those projectiles that earned its reputation the hard way, by winning matches and holding zero at distance. The headliner here is the hybrid ogive, which blends a tangent profile near the bearing surface with a secant profile up front. That combination gives you an efficient, high-BC shape while staying forgiving about seating depth, so load development doesn't turn into a weekend-long headache. With a G1 BC of 0.682 and a G7 BC of 0.349, this 250 grainer holds velocity and bucks the wind about as well as anything in the .338 class.
Berger builds these on the J4 Precision Jacket, the same jacket that backs their competition lineup. That means tight tolerances and the kind of consistency that shows up on paper and on the target turret. The bullet measures 0.338 inches in diameter with an overall length of 1.635 inches, a boat tail base, and a sectional density of 0.313. The open tip match design isn't about expansion, it's about concentricity and a clean, uniform meplat that keeps your groups honest.
Berger lists a minimum twist of 1:12 inches or faster for this bullet, with 1:11 being a common recommendation to fully stabilize it. That makes it a natural fit for 338 Lapua Magnum, 338 Norma, and other heavy .338 cartridges built for reaching way out there. The forgiving ogive gives handloaders a little breathing room when working up a load, though you'll still want to chase your rifle's sweet spot for the tightest groups.
This is a purpose-built long-range projectile. It's a favorite among precision rifle competitors and professional marksmen who need repeatable hits past a thousand yards, and it's equally at home punching paper, ringing steel, or running drills at the range. If you're feeding a serious .338 build and want a bullet that rewards good technique, this one belongs on your bench.
Berger lists a minimum twist of 1:12 inches or faster for this bullet. A 1:11 twist is a commonly recommended choice to fully stabilize the 250 grain projectile, especially at distance and in colder, denser air. Most modern 338 Lapua and 338 Norma barrels are cut with twists in this range.
This is a component projectile only, meant for handloading. The box contains 100 bullets with no cases, powder, or primers. You'll need your own brass and components to assemble finished ammunition.
No. The Open Tip Match design is about accuracy, not expansion. The small opening at the tip is a byproduct of forming the jacket from the base up, which produces a more uniform and concentric bullet. It's built for precision and consistency rather than terminal expansion.
This 250 grain bullet is well suited to heavy .338 cartridges like the 338 Lapua Magnum and 338 Norma Magnum. Its high BC and boat tail design make it a strong choice for long-range precision work, where it's popular with competitors and professional marksmen reaching past a thousand yards.
