Hornady 82313 Precision Hunter 338LapuaMag 270gr Extremely Low Drag eXpanding 20 Per Box/6 Case Centerfire, Rifle Ammunition

Overview

Hornady Precision Hunter .338 Lapua Magnum ammunition is loaded with 270-grain ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag eXpanding) polymer-tipped bullets designed for medium to large game hunting. The bullet incorporates a Doppler-verified Heat Shield tip that resists aerodynamic heating to maintain its shape and highest-in-class ballistic coefficient across its trajectory. Featuring a streamlined secant ogive, boattail design, and concentric AMP bullet jackets, it delivers match-accurate performance. At high velocities (0–400 yards), the thick shank and InterLock ring provide continuous expansion and 50–60% weight retention. At lower velocities (400+ yards), the tip drives backward to initiate expansion, offering a large mushroom, deep penetration, and 85–90% weight retention. This factory load uses clean-burning propellants in reloadable brass cases with a muzzle velocity of 2,800 fps and 4,699 ft. lbs. of muzzle energy.
