Product Overview
Prvi Partizan 240-grain Solid Copper is a solid copper .338 Lapua Magnum load PPU catalogues as match ammunition. At 240 grains it is the lightest bullet the caliber is loaded with, and there is no lead in it. It leaves the muzzle at 2,950 fps with 4,641 ft-lbs and a G1 BC of .643.
Zeroed at 200 yards, it drops 6.4 inches at 300 and 18.2 inches at 400. Nothing else in the caliber drops less at that distance from that zero. From a 100-yard zero it drops 24.1 inches at 400.
If you're cross-shopping, Federal's American Eagle 250-grain is the closest load on weight and speed, 75 fps slower on a G1 BC of .555 and drops 20.0 inches at 400 from a 200-yard zero. Hornady's Precision Hunter 270-grain ELD-X carries a G1 BC of .757 over a polymer-tipped lead-core bullet.
- The softest-kicking load in the caliber
- No lead in the bullet, so it can be used where lead-free ammunition is required
- Still moving at 2,391 fps at 400 yards, faster than any other load compared
- A solid bullet with nothing in it meant to open up, whatever its weight suggests
- A lower G1 BC than Hornady's Precision Hunter 270-grain ELD-X and Barnes' VOR-TX 280-grain LRX
