Hornady SST Bullets .338 cal .338" 200 gr SST 100/ct

The Hornady SST Bullets .338 cal .338" 200 gr SST 100/ct represents a precision rifle cartridge engineered for hunters and shooters demanding consistent, long-range terminal performance. Designed for medium to large game applications across North America, these .338 caliber projectiles deliver the flat trajectory and hard-hitting reliability that serious hunters depend on when pursuing whitetail, elk, antelope, and similar game animals. Available in boxes of 100 rounds, this ammunition component serves both handloaders and competitive shooters who refuse to compromise on accuracy or expansion characteristics.

The SST designation stands for "Super Shock Tip," a proprietary Hornady design that combines a streamlined polymer tip with a precisely engineered hollow-point cavity to ensure rapid expansion while maintaining structural integrity on impact. At 200 grains, this bullet weight strikes a balanced compromise between velocity retention and shock effect, performing optimally at higher impact velocities typical of .338 Winchester Magnum and similar cartridges. The flat-shooting ballistic profile minimizes wind deflection and drop at extended ranges, while the copper-alloy construction and advanced jacket design promote consistent expansion regardless of impact angle or terminal velocity variance—critical factors for ethical, one-shot kills in field conditions.

Tactical and hunting riflemen working with .338-caliber platforms—including .338 Winchester Magnum, .338 Lapua Magnum, and comparable cartridges—will benefit from the predictable ballistics and reliable terminal behavior these bullets deliver. Handloaders appreciate the consistent case dimensions and tight quality control that Hornady ammunition components provide, ensuring uniform velocities and shot-to-shot repeatability. Whether assembling precision hunting loads or developing competition-grade handloads, the 200-grain SST bullet integrates seamlessly into most reloading protocols and delivers the stopping power and accuracy required for disciplined, ethical game harvest at ranges from 200 to 600 yards.
