Product Overview
Best Uses for Winchester Super-X .338 Winchester Magnum 200gr Power-Point
The Winchester Super-X 200gr Power-Point represents practical, affordable .338 Winchester Magnum ammunition for hunters who want proven performance without premium pricing. Launching at 2960 fps with 3890 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, this is the fastest load in the .338 Win Mag lineup, providing a flat trajectory ideal for open country hunting. The exposed lead tip Power-Point design initiates rapid expansion on impact, delivering effective terminal performance that has anchored countless elk and moose since the caliber's introduction in 1958.
This load is particularly well-suited for hunters who shoot enough to sight in properly and practice regularly before hunting season. The economical pricing allows for meaningful practice sessions that build confidence and accuracy - factors that contribute more to hunting success than premium bullet designs. For elk, moose, and large deer at typical hunting distances under 300 yards, the Power-Point delivers more than adequate expansion and penetration for clean, ethical harvests.
The Winchester Super-X is an excellent choice for hunters building their first .338 Win Mag load inventory or for those who hunt terrain where most shots occur at moderate ranges. Forest and timber hunting for elk, moose hunts in thick brush, or pursuing black bear over bait are scenarios where the Power-Point's rapid expansion and affordable pricing make it the practical choice. While premium bullets offer advantages at extreme range, the Super-X remains the workhorse load that has filled more freezers than any other .338 Win Mag offering.
