Hornady .338 Win Mag Outfitter Ammo FAQ:

The maximum effective range of this ammunition is generally up to 400 yards, with optimal performance typically within 200-300 yards. Factors influencing this include the shooter’s skill, environmental conditions such as wind and temperature, and the specific game being hunted. The high ballistic coefficient helps maintain accuracy at these longer distances.

This ammunition generates significant recoil due to its high muzzle velocity and bullet weight. To manage recoil, use a well-fitted rifle with a good recoil pad, practice proper shooting posture, and consider using a muzzle brake or suppressor if permitted. Recoil management is essential for maintaining accuracy and comfort during extended shooting sessions.

While you can use this ammunition for varmint hunting, it is generally overpowered for such small game. The .338 Win Mag cartridge and 225-grain bullet deliver excessive energy for varmints, which could result in unnecessary destruction of the target. Smaller calibers are typically better suited for varmint hunting, providing adequate power without the excessive force.

Yes, the nickel-plated cases of this ammunition are reloadable, allowing you to reuse them after firing. When reloading, be mindful of the sealed primer and case mouth, as these may require careful handling to ensure they remain watertight. Additionally, the use of appropriate powders and primers is crucial to maintaining the performance characteristics of the original load.

Although primarily designed for hunting, this ammo can be used in long-range shooting competitions due to its high ballistic coefficient and consistent performance. The advantages include its ability to maintain a flat trajectory and resist wind drift, which are critical for accuracy in long-range scenarios. However, the powerful recoil and energy may be excessive for some competitive formats.
