CUTTING EDGE BULLETS

.338 / 225-gr ESP Raptor™ in monolithic brass, truly versatile: run without tip (hollow point) for lever guns/shorter ranges, with tip for higher BC and magazine feeding in bolt rifles, or flip it to shoot as a solid for maximum straight-line penetration. BBW#13™ nose on both ends; 6 petals shear after 1–2 in while the base drives straight. Required twist 1:9.5″ or faster (not recommended faster than 1:6″). Includes 50 uninstalled Raptor Tips™. Minimum expansion ≥ 1500 fps.

Use / positioning
Multi-mode hunting bullet:

  • No tip: great for lever guns and moderate velocities.

  • With tip: increased BC and magazine feed in bolt actions.

  • Flipped (base forward): solid mode for maximum penetration.

Design & terminal effect
CNC-turned brass. BBW#13™ profile on both ends for very straight penetration. Raptor mechanism: no mushrooming—6 petals at 1–2 in while the solid shank continues straight for depth.
