Pick up this 200 round case of PPU PPM338 338 Lapua Magnum 240 grain match solid ammo from Prvi Partizan. It comes from PPU’s match line and is built for long-range shooters who want consistent factory ammunition for their 338 Lapua Magnum rifle. Match ammunition at this level is a real investment, and keeping a case of a single load on hand lets you build reliable dope for your rifle and come back to it session after session.
The 240 grain match solid bullet has a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.643 according to the factory catalog, which helps it resist wind drift and hold velocity at extended distances. Prvi Partizan lists a muzzle velocity of 2,986 fps from a 690mm test barrel, with muzzle energy of about 4,750 ft-lbs. Your velocity will vary with barrel length. This load is made for long-range target shooting, steel and precision practice. It is a match bullet, not a hunting bullet, so pick a dedicated hunting load for game.
The 338 Lapua Magnum was developed in the late 1980s as a long-range military sniper cartridge and has since become a favorite of civilian long-range competitors. It is chambered mostly in heavy bolt-action precision rifles. It is not interchangeable with other 338 cartridges such as the 338 Winchester Magnum, so confirm that your rifle is marked for 338 Lapua Magnum before firing. Prvi Partizan has made ammunition in Serbia since 1928 and offers match grade loads alongside its standard rifle line.
This is new production ammunition loaded in brass cases with Boxer primers, and those large magnum cases are valuable for reloaders. PPU ammunition is non-corrosive, so cleaning is routine. The case contains 20 boxes of 10 rounds each, for a total of 200 rounds. Buying PPU PPM338 by the case keeps your rifle on one lot of ammunition across many range sessions. Store it in a cool, dry place.
