At the heart of this .338 Federal ammunition is the Nosler Partition® bullet.
The Nosler Partition® is designed with a fully tapered copper-alloy jacket, which ruptures instantly on impact, curling the jacket uniformly outward. The dual-core design assures rapid expansion of the foremost core while Nosler’s integral partition supports the expanded mushroom, allowing the enclosed rear core to remain intact, retaining more than two-thirds the original bullet weight for deep penetration. The Nosler Partition® special lead-alloy dual-core provides superior mushrooming characteristics at virtually all impact velocities on any game.
