Description

Hornady's Superformance line uses a different approach to getting more speed downrange. Instead of cramming heavier powder charges into the case, they engineered propellants that work more efficiently at standard charge weights. The result is extra velocity without the extra pressure, recoil, or muzzle blast that typically comes with hot loads. With this .338 Winchester Magnum load delivering 3030 fps from a 200 grain bullet, you're getting impressive performance while keeping the shooting experience manageable.

What Makes Superformance .338 Win Mag Ammunition Special

The polymer-tipped SST bullet is the other half of this equation. When the tip hits soft tissue, it drives into the lead core and triggers expansion almost immediately, even at the impact speeds this load achieves. The bullet's InterLock ring keeps the core and jacket locked together, so you get controlled expansion and deep penetration rather than complete fragmentation. For a 200 grain bullet traveling at 3030 fps, this is solid hunting performance on elk-sized game at typical ranges.

Specs and Components

You get brass cases in every box, which means if you reload, there's value here. Twenty rounds per box, and Hornady maintains consistency with their quality control on both cases and primers. At 4076 foot-pounds of muzzle energy, this load packs enough punch for the game you're hunting. The temperature stability that comes with Superformance means your point of impact stays steady whether you're hunting in cold mountain terrain or warm conditions.

This is purpose-built hunting ammunition made in the USA, packaged in boxes of twenty with the same attention to detail Hornady applies across their entire line.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of game is Hornady Superformance .338 Win Mag suitable for?

This load is well-suited for elk, moose, and other large North American game. The 200 grain SST bullet at 3030 fps delivers the velocity and energy needed for hunting medium to large game out to moderate ranges. Many guides and experienced hunters favor the .338 Winchester Magnum for elk and consider it an ideal cartridge for that purpose.

What does Superformance mean, and is it safe in my rifle?

Superformance refers to Hornady's proprietary propellant technology that delivers extra velocity without increased peak pressure compared to conventional ammunition. The rounds are loaded safely within SAAMI pressure guidelines, so they're safe to use in all .338 Winchester Magnum firearms, including semi-autos, lever guns, and pump actions.

How do SST bullets perform on impact compared to other hunting bullets?

The polymer tip initiates rapid expansion while the InterLock ring mechanically locks the jacket and core together. This design provides controlled expansion and good weight retention for deep penetration. The SST is particularly effective at the velocities this Superformance load delivers, making it a reliable choice for hunting applications within its designed range.

Are these cases reloadable?

Yes, the brass cases are reloadable, which gives you flexibility if you want to develop custom loads or recycle cases over time. This is one advantage of factory ammunition with quality brass over cheaper alternatives with non-reloadable cases.
