Product Overview

Best Uses for Federal Vital-Shok .338 Winchester Magnum 210gr Nosler Partition

The Federal Vital-Shok 210gr Nosler Partition represents decades of proven performance on North American and African big game. At 2830 fps with 3734 ft-lbs of energy, this load features the legendary Nosler Partition bullet - the original premium hunting projectile that has taken more trophy animals worldwide than any other design. The dual-core construction with its integral partition ensures the front half expands devastatingly while the rear core drives through for maximum penetration, making it the benchmark against which all controlled-expansion bullets are measured.

This ammunition is perfectly suited for elk, moose, and bear hunting where bullet performance on quartering shots through heavy bone and muscle is paramount. The Partition's unique design allows the front section to expand rapidly for immediate energy transfer while the protected rear core continues penetrating through the vitals regardless of impact angle. Alaskan guides have relied on the Partition for decades as their backup on dangerous game, and countless elk and moose have been cleanly harvested with this time-proven design.

For hunters who trust proven performance over marketing claims, the Vital-Shok Partition delivers the reliability that comes from over 70 years of real-world success. Whether you're hunting Roosevelt elk in the Oregon rain forests, chasing Shiras moose in the Idaho wilderness, or pursuing Cape buffalo in Zimbabwe, the Nosler Partition remains the gold standard for controlled-expansion hunting bullets that hunters stake their hunts - and sometimes their safety - upon.
