Sako .338 Hammerhead 250 gr / 16.2 g – Soft-Point Bullet for Large Game
The Sako Hammerhead .338 Win. Mag. bullet combines controlled expansion with deep penetration and strong stopping power. Its heavy jacket construction with a bonded core ensures the bullet stays intact on bone strikes and transfers large amounts of energy quickly to the target. The round nose and softer tip trigger immediate expansion; the design limits that expansion in a controlled way to preserve high retained weight. That makes the Sako Hammerhead ideal for large game and demanding hunting situations where stopping power, penetration and reloadability matter.
