Hornady Superformance .338 RCM 225gr SST 20rd 82236

Hornady Superformance .338 Ruger Compact Magnum 225gr SST ammunition is designed to deliver exceptional velocity and long-range hunting performance. Hornady’s advanced Superformance® propellant technology allows this ammunition to achieve higher velocities than conventional loads without increasing chamber pressure.

At the center of this cartridge is Hornady’s 225-grain SST® (Super Shock Tip) projectile, engineered to deliver rapid expansion and tremendous impact energy. The aerodynamic polymer tip improves ballistic performance while helping initiate consistent expansion and deep penetration.

The SST bullet features a precision-engineered jacket and internal InterLock® ring that helps retain weight and maintain structural integrity during expansion. This design produces large wound channels and dependable terminal performance for demanding big-game hunting situations.

With a muzzle velocity of approximately 2750 feet per second, this load provides flat trajectories, strong downrange energy, and reliable performance for large game such as elk, moose, and large deer species.
