Designed to be used against vehicles and structures in situationswhen excellent penetration, incendiary and point of impact indication are required. The Armor Piercing Incendiary (API) bullet is designed to meet current insensitive munitions standards. Classified as 1.4S.
Lapua®’s Armor Piercing (AP) is the most accurate AP ammunition that is manufactured using proven match grade technology. It provides excellent penetration against extra hard targets.
Unbeatable accuracy over extra long distances. The Lock Base tail structure also provides exceptional precision at high pressures and high muzzle velocities. The full metal jacket boat tail configuration reduces drag and provides a flatter trajectory.
High Pressure Proof, Drill and Blank cartridges complete the .338 Lapua® Magnum family.
Scenar is an extremely accurate Open-Tip Match (OTM) bullet. A boat tail base delivers an outstanding ballistic coefficient. Lapua® Scenar bullets deliver superb results at long ranges.
Bullet construction with valve design provides maximum shock effect over a wide terminal velocity range (500–1 000 m/s). For operational purposes, the solid frame construction enables a straight bullet path through laminated glass without fragmentation.
