Description
The Nosler Match Grade .338 Lapua Magnum 300gr Custom Competition HPBT ammunition (Nosler part no. 43136) is a box of 20 rounds loaded for shooters who care about group size. Each round carries a 300gr HPBT Custom Competition Match bullet seated in Nosler Premium Brass. The hollow point gives the bullet a small meplat for reduced drag and better aerodynamic efficiency, while the pronounced boat-tail holds up its flight characteristics over a wide range of velocities. Nosler rates this load at 2650 fps and 4677 foot-pounds of energy at the muzzle from a 24-inch test barrel. It is built for target and match shooting from .338 Lapua Magnum rifles at the range and in competition.
