Hornady SST .338 Cal 225 gr Super Shock Tip Reloading Bullets - 100/Box

The Hornady SST (Super Shock Tip) is a premium rifle bullet built around a proven cup-and-core design, engineered to deliver rapid, controlled expansion and deep, straight-line penetration on game. This offering is the .338 caliber variant loaded with a hefty 225 grain projectile, purpose-built for big-game and medium-game hunting in any rifle chambered for .338" cartridges.

At the front of each bullet sits a precision-molded polymer tip that initiates expansion on impact while helping the projectile hold a flat trajectory downrange. The tapered copper (gilding metal) jacket is engineered to upset reliably even at reduced velocities, and the lead core provides the mass needed to drive deep penetration through heavy muscle and bone. A cannelure locks the core in place and gives handloaders a positive crimp reference. The bullet's ballistic coefficient of .515 and sectional density of .281 speak to strong retained velocity and deep-penetration potential on heavy game.

Each box contains 100 projectiles, and the master case holds 15 boxes (1,500 bullets), making this an economical option for handloaders working up hunting loads in .338-class rifles. SST projectiles are a go-to choice for hunters looking for a balance of controlled expansion, deep penetration, and consistent downrange accuracy.
