Nosler 338 Cal 300gr RDF (100ct)

The Nosler 338 Cal 300gr RDF (100ct) is a precision-engineered bullet component designed for competitive shooters and tactical handloaders seeking ultra-low drag, exceptional long-range accuracy, and consistent ballistic performance in .338‑caliber rifles. RDF (Reduced Drag Factor) bullets feature a compound ogive, long boat-tail, and exceptionally consistent meplat to minimize variance and maintain a uniform profile for improved downrange precision.

Manufactured to a .338″ diameter, the 300gr RDF bullet achieves an advanced G1 ballistic coefficient of approximately 0.595 and a G7 coefficient of about 0.300, with a sectional density near 0.351. These ballistics reduce wind drift and maintain velocity over extended distances. Its tight-tolerance meplat removes the need for manual tip trimming, and the long bearing surface ensures minimal drag and consistent seating depth—ideal for long-range match applications.

Designed for high-precision platforms chambered in .338 Winchester Magnum and 338 Lapua Magnum, this bullet stabilizes effectively in barrels with 1:10″ twist rates or faster. The RDF’s hollow point boat-tail design ensures seating sensitivity is minimal, allowing custom-load builders to achieve tight groups with varying seating depths and powder charges while maintaining match-level consistency.

Competitive shooters and long-range enthusiasts report reliable sub-MOA groups and consistent velocity retention with the 338 Cal 300gr RDF. Its optimized aerodynamics and uniform profile make it a top choice for F-Class, PRS, and ELR competitions, as well as tactical and KE-type platforms requiring precise bullet behavior across environmental conditions.

This is strictly a bullet component—not factory-loaded ammunition. Handloaders should consult Nosler’s official reloading data and reputable manuals. Recommended powders include Hodgdon Varget, Reloder 17, and Vihtavuori N570 for stable burn rates in precision .338-caliber loads. Proper case prep, neck tension consistency, precise seating depth, and consistent cartridge overall length are essential to maintain accuracy and safe pressures.

By combining Nosler’s RDF ballistic design—featuring tight meplats and low-drag ogive—with precision manufacturing, the Nosler 338 Cal 300gr RDF bullet component delivers elite long-range performance, superior wind resistance, and unmatched consistency in .338‑caliber handloads.
