The Hornady SST 338 Cal 225 Grain InterLock Polymer Tip Spitzer Boat Tail Bullets deliver reliable performance for reloaders building ammunition for .338-caliber rifles. SST bullets are engineered for controlled expansion and consistent accuracy, making them a solid choice for hunters and precision shooters who handload their own ammunition. This box of 100 bullets gives you the components you need to develop loads tailored to your specific rifle and shooting goals.
Built around Hornady's proven InterLock ring technology, these bullets resist core-jacket separation during expansion—a critical feature for reliable performance on game or at distance. The polymer tip and boat tail design optimize ballistic coefficient and aerodynamic stability, helping you achieve flatter trajectories and better downrange energy retention from your .338 rifle.
Whether you're fine-tuning loads for elk season, competing at the range, or pushing accuracy at extended distances, reloading with quality components like these SST bullets lets you optimize velocity, accuracy, and performance for your individual rifle.
