Cutting Edge MTAC Rifle Bullets .338 Cal .338" 227 gr BTHP 50/ct

The Cutting Edge MTAC Rifle Bullets .338 Caliber .338" 227 Grain BTHP (Boat Tail Hollow Point) represents a precision-engineered solid copper projectile designed for extended-range target shooting and precision rifle applications. Manufactured from lead-free solid copper bar stock via CNC Swiss lathe machining, these monolithic bullets deliver the ballistic consistency and accuracy demanded by long-range shooters and precision riflemen operating at all distances.

The defining feature of the MTAC line is Cutting Edge's patented SealTite® band—a precision-engineered band slightly larger than caliber diameter that eliminates fliers by preventing gas blow-by around the bullet. This design innovation reduces copper fouling, a persistent issue with monolithic bullets that can degrade barrel life and require frequent cleaning cycles. The 227-grain boat tail hollow point profile optimizes ballistic coefficient for sustained velocity retention, making these .338 bullets particularly effective for distance work where velocity preservation directly impacts terminal performance and wind drift compensation. The 50-round count per box suits both range development sessions and precision rifle competitions.

Precision rifle competitors, long-range target shooters, and hunters pursuing high-velocity .338 applications benefit from the consistency MTAC bullets provide. The lead-free solid copper construction meets range restrictions in environmentally sensitive areas and reduces contamination concerns during extended practice sessions. Serious shooters reloading .338 match ammunition will appreciate the tight concentricity tolerances and uniform weight distribution that monolithic construction inherently provides, eliminating the inconsistencies sometimes found in jacketed designs.

The .338 caliber occupies a distinct segment in precision rifle shooting—balancing the velocity of smaller magnums with the downrange energy retention that distinguishes it from 6.5mm platforms. The 227-grain weight class sits at the standard for this caliber in target and competition contexts, ensuring broad compatibility with established load data and established rifle platforms built on .338 LM and similar chassis.
