Product Overview
Prvi Partizan's 240-grain Solid Copper suits a shooter who wants a copper bullet with no lead core and less recoil than the 250- to 300-grain .338 Lapua loads. The bullet is solid copper all the way through, with no lead core and no separate jacket. It leaves the muzzle at 2,950 fps with 4,641 ft-lbs of energy.
Compared with Barnes' VOR-TX 280-grain LRX, which also uses a copper bullet with no lead core, the Prvi Partizan leaves the muzzle 350 fps faster with a bullet 40 grains lighter. The Barnes kicks about 18 percent harder in the same rifle.

If you want a load Hornady markets for large game, Hornady's Precision Hunter 270-grain ELD-X is the pick, though it kicks about 19 percent more in the same rifle.
