Own the wind and clean up your vertical with Ammo Inc Compete .338 Lapua Mag 250gr OTM. Purpose-built for long-range and ELR shooters, this match-style load pairs a 250-grain Open Tip Match boat-tail projectile with clean-burning propellant, premium primers, and concentric, reloadable brass. The result is the kind of low SD/ES consistency you can trust when you’re stretching past a kilometer, validating dope at distance, or hammering steel in field matches.
Why Serious Long-Range Shooters Choose This Load
Match-Grade OTM Projectile: The Open Tip Match process focuses on perfected jacket concentricity and balanced cores—key ingredients for tight dispersion and clean, round holes on paper and steel.
250-Grain, High-BC Stability: Heavy-for-caliber bullet weight with a refined boat-tail yields excellent ballistic coefficient, cutting wind drift and preserving velocity deep into transonic territory.
Consistent Components: Carefully metered powder, reliable primers, and uniform brass help deliver predictable velocities and smooth extraction across long shot strings.
Built for Precision Platforms: Equally at home in competition chassis rifles and high-end hunting/target bolts with quality optics, brakes, or suppressors.
Case-Lot Confidence (200 Rounds): Run the same lot for training and matches to minimize point-of-impact shifts and simplify ballistic truing.

Note: Velocity and energy vary with barrel length, chamber, and atmospheric conditions. Always confirm your DOPE in your rifle and record density altitude, temperature, and pressure for repeatable results.
What “Open Tip Match” Means for Accuracy
Uniform Meplat Cavity: The small open tip results from the manufacturing method to precisely form the core, improving gyroscopic stability.
Boat-Tail Base: Reduces base drag and helps maintain downrange velocity, tightening vertical at 600–1,500+ yards.
Concentric Jackets: High concentricity minimizes yaw and precession for predictable flight and tighter groups.
Real-World Performance Advantages
Superior Wind Performance: The heavy 250gr projectile’s higher BC resists full-value winds better than lighter .338 bullets, improving first-round impact probability.
Low Extreme Spread: Quality components and careful assembly promote tight SD/ES, shrinking vertical at distance.
Cleaner Running: Clean-burning propellant helps reduce fouling in bores, brakes, and suppressors—ideal for long practice days.
Manageable Recoil Rhythm: Heavy bullets can produce a smooth, trackable impulse in well-braked or suppressed rifles, aiding spotter feedback and follow-through.
Ideal Use Cases
ELR & Precision Field Matches: Consistency you can rely on for 1,000–1,500+ yard engagements.
Bench & Zero Work: Establish baselines for optic tracking and turret data with confidence.
Wind-Reading Practice: High-BC bullet offers a forgiving learning curve for advanced wind calling.
Steel & Target Applications: Where accuracy and non-expanding match bullets are preferred.
Tips for Best Results
Chronograph Your Lot: Record a 10-shot string to true your solver; log DA, temp, and barometric pressure.
Tall-Target Test: Verify scope tracking and mount torque for trustworthy elevation data.
Barrel Management: Track round count and maintain a consistent cleaning schedule to preserve accuracy.
Document Your Data: Save box flaps for lot numbers and annotate weather conditions to repeat success later.
Storage & Handling
Store ammunition cool and dry, away from oils/solvents and direct sunlight.
Keep in factory packaging for lot control and quick round counts.
Rotate inventory first-in/first-out for freshness and consistency.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is OTM suitable for big-game hunting?
A: OTM bullets are designed for accuracy, not controlled expansion. For hunting, choose a purpose-built expanding bullet that complies with local regulations.
Q: What twist rate works best for 250gr .338 LM?
A: Many .338 Lapua rifles with 1:9 to 1:10 twists stabilize 250gr bullets well. Verify with your barrel for optimal results.
Q: Is the brass reloadable?
A: Yes—cases are brass and typically reloadable. Inspect and prep according to reputable load data and best practices.
Q: Will this perform in extreme cold or heat?
A: As with any load, external ballistics shift with temperature and DA. Re-true your solver in the conditions you expect to shoot.
Safety & Responsibility
Use only in firearms chambered for .338 Lapua Magnum and in proper mechanical condition. Always follow the four rules of firearm safety, wear eye/ear protection, and comply with all laws governing ammunition purchase, transport, and use.
