When precision and terminal performance matter, choosing the right factory ammunition can make the difference between a clean ethical harvest and a missed or marginal outcome. Hunters and long-range shooters who demand consistent velocity, reliable expansion, and compatibility across platforms need an option that raises the bar in the field.
HORNADY SUPERFORMANCE delivers that elevated performance through engineering and component quality.

Performance and ballistics
HORNADY SUPERFORMANCE uses progressive propellants engineered to drive match-quality bullets — including VMAX, NTX, SST, GMX, InterLock, and InterBond — to velocities 100–200 fps higher than conventional factory loads. For the 338 Winchester Magnum offering, that extra speed translates to flatter trajectories, greater retained energy at long range, and improved terminal performance for large game. This specific load features an SST bullet at 200 grains, a configuration known for reliable expansion and deep penetration on heavy-bodied game.
Components and reliability
Consistency starts in the components. SUPERFORMANCE uses high-quality cases and primers selected for uniform ignition and dimensional stability. Those consistent components produce repeatable velocities shot-to-shot and box-to-box, important when you can’t chase variables at the range. Importantly, the progressive propellant formulation is safe for use in semiautos, lever guns, and pump actions, making this load versatile across common hunting platforms.
Packaging and pricing
This 338 Winchester Magnum load ships 20 rounds per box and 10 boxes per case, priced at $53.99 per box. That packaging is practical for hunters who want ready ammo for extended trips or for those who prefer to stock match-condition factory loads for season-long use. View product details and pricing
Applications and tactical considerations
The 338 Winchester Magnum is a proven choice for long-range big game, mountain hunting, and situations that demand both reach and terminal authority. When paired with the SST 200-grain bullet and SUPERFORMANCE velocities, you get increased hit probability at extended ranges and robust performance on animals where deep penetration and controlled expansion are required. Consider zeroing with the higher velocity in mind and verify point of impact change versus conventional factory loads.
For shooters seeking a reliable, high-velocity 338 Winchester Magnum factory option that works across semiautos, lever and pump guns, HORNADY SUPERFORMANCE with the 200-grain SST is a strong, field-ready choice. Check current availability
