The Hornady LEVERevolution 338 Marlin Express 200gr ammunition delivers breakthrough performance for lever-action rifles and revolvers chambered in this cartridge. Built around Hornady's patented FTX Flex Tip technology, these rounds are engineered to function safely in tubular magazines while achieving ballistic performance previously unavailable to lever-gun operators. At 2,565 feet per second, the 200-grain projectile generates substantial downrange power with a significantly flatter trajectory than traditional lever-action loads.

The FTX bullet design combines a elastomer Flex Tip with a streamlined profile that increases ballistic coefficient and reduces wind drift at extended distances. This approach eliminates the round-nose limitations that have constrained lever-action ballistics for over a century. The 338 Marlin Express cartridge itself—a modern SAAMI-standardized round optimized for lever guns—generates superior velocities compared to traditional lever-action calibers, making the Hornady LEVERevolution load the factory choice for serious hunters and shooters. The 20-round box format allows shooters to stock adequate ammunition for training or field use without excessive redundancy.

This ammunition is purpose-built for hunters pursuing medium to large game at ranges where modern lever-gun ballistics become relevant—typically 150 to 300 yards depending on game size and shooter skill. Shooters transitioning from traditional .30-30 Winchester or .308 Marlin Express to the 338 Marlin platform will appreciate the terminal performance and trajectory advantages without sacrificing the ergonomic familiarity of lever-action operation. Reloaders and ammunition testers consistently report consistent velocities and reliable feeding through modern lever-action platforms.
