Description
.338 Lapua Magnum 250 Grain Nosler Partition~ The .338 Lapua Magnum (8.6×70mm or 8.58×70mm) is a rimless, bottlenecked, centerfire rifle cartridge. It was developed during the 1980s as a high-powered, long-range cartridge for military snipers. It was used in the Afghanistan wart and the Iraq war. As a result of this, it became more widely available. The loaded cartridge is 14.93 mm (0.588 in) in diameter (rim) and 93.5 mm (3.68 in) long.

The Nosler Partition bullet has earned it’s respect with the following characteristics
1 Nosler Engineering
Nosler’s special lead-alloy, dual-core provides superior mushrooming characteristics at virtually all impact velocities.
2 Fully Tapered Copper-Alloy Jacket
Ruptures instantly at the thin jacket mouth, yet the gradual thickening along the bullet’s axis controls expansion and curls the jacket uniformly outward at high and low velocities.
3 Nosler’s Integral Partition
Supports the expanded mushroom and retains the rear lead-alloy core. The enclosed rear core retains more than two-thirds of the original bullet weight for deep penetration.
4 Dual-Core Construction
Every Partition® bullet in the Nosler line delivers optimum length, weight and ogive design for maximum in-flight and terminal performance.
