Federal Premium Gold Medal Model 338 Lapua Magnum 250gr Boat Tail Hollow Point ammunition represents match-grade precision at extended range. Purpose-built for long-range rifle competition and tactical precision applications, this .338 Lapua load combines Federal's exclusive primer sensitivity technology with Sierra MatchKing bullet construction—the most matched rifle bullet in competitive shooting worldwide. The 250-grain boat tail hollow point design delivers the ballistic consistency required for sub-minute-of-angle accuracy at distances where wind deflection and drop demand uncompromising performance.
The .338 Lapua Magnum chambering offers significant kinetic advantage over standard .308 Winchester—greater case capacity translates to higher velocity potential and flatter trajectory downrange. This Federal Gold Medal load achieves 2,950 feet per second muzzle velocity, providing the velocity stability and energy retention necessary for consistent long-range terminal performance. The boat tail hollow point configuration minimizes drag over distance while maintaining barrier-blind expansion characteristics. Federal's precision primer design ensures shot-to-shot consistency in ignition, a critical variable in match-grade ammunition where sub-0.5-inch groups separate winners from competitors.
Federal Gold Medal .338 Lapua ammunition suits precision rifle competitors, designated marksman applications, and shooters pursuing match-grade accuracy beyond 1,000 yards. The Sierra MatchKing bullet has won more precision rifle matches than any competitor offering—a distinction rooted in consistent construction and aerodynamic design rather than marketing. Each 20-round box is manufactured to Federal's rigorous tolerance standards, ensuring uniform loading density and consistent powder charge weight. This ammunition is best suited to bolt-action precision rifles and semi-automatic platforms chambered specifically for .338 Lapua, where the long action and case capacity can be fully utilized.
