The tradition of hunting America’s most dangerous game has a long tradition in the shooting sports, but it’s also making its mark in combat zones, a hunter’s forum. The .338 Lapua Magnum is one of the most popular and powerful magnums, often used by long range shooters, and is named after one of Finland’s most famous firearms – the 338 Lapua Magnum Express. The 338 Lapua Magnum Express is generally used in long range shooting competitions and matches. The .338 Lapua Magnum Express works in conjunction with a tipped match-grade bullet, to provide the flattest trajectory possible for the .338 Lapua Magnum. The 338 Lapua Magnum Express chambers the cartridge’s neck and is cased in .338 Velocity-plus Match (XTP) bullets, which are coated in Sierra Tipped MatchKing or GM-Tipped MatchKing. The difference between a Sierra Tipped MatchKing and a Sierra MatchKing is that the former is tapered at the waist, while the latter retains the jacket shape near the head. The former provides a thin, hollow point cavity and the latter retains the crimped jacket shape near the head, so the crimped jacket does not spread out like a J-cuff. The design of both the .338 and .338 MatchKing allows use of the crimped nosed bullets for the full, reliable range of 338 Lapua Magnum loads.
