I left bad review for same bullet when loaded in Hornady’s factory load because they were supersonic and 2 MOA. Possibly it is more stable due to velocity, or more accurate because hand loads are more consistent. \n\nMost important factor for me was that these expand. I tested shooting through board/water/sand. Penetration was impressive. 7-10” of wet sand after 5/8 board and gallon of water.","textLength":488,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":true,"autoModerated":true,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":"4113458687","dimensions":[{"type":1,"dimensionId":3,"dimensionLabel":"Value","id":9,"code":"VAL03","label":null,"value":3},{"type":1,"dimensionId":4,"dimensionLabel":"Durability","id":16,"code":"DUR05","label":null,"value":5},{"type":1,"dimensionId":5,"dimensionLabel":"Quality","id":21,"code":"QUAL5","label":null,"value":5}],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[{"id":85978,"type":"photo","caption":"300 OTM vs SubX fired subsonic","imageType":"jpeg","width":3024,"height":4032,"locale":"en_US","published":true,"dateCreated":"2026-04-17T08:35:19-04:00","normalUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/media/TXOE2FrZzlhkSdesite/590d77ba924bc941b4b302c27a386179_1776429271176_0_L1000.jpeg","thumbnailUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/media/TXOE2FrZzlhkSdesite/590d77ba924bc941b4b302c27a386179_1776429271176_0_PZ320.jpeg","originalUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/media/TXOE2FrZzlhkSdesite/590d77ba924bc941b4b302c27a386179_1776429271176_0.jpeg","ipViolationFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"offensiveFlag":false,"spamFlag":false,"offTopicFlag":false,"tags":[]}],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":null,"firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":null,"state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":"2026-04-17T14:39:56-04:00","purchaseDate":"2026-04-15T10:54:32-04:00","dateCreated":"2026-04-17T08:35:46-04:00","customData":[],"acceptedTermsAndConditions":true,"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"catalogItems":[{"sku":"90255-33394","title":"Hornady SUB-X 338 Caliber Rifle Bullets","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/90255-33394","category":"rifle-bullets","reviewCount":1,"ratingCount":1,"averageRating":5,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":0,"2":0,"3":0,"4":0,"5":1},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]}],"offset":0,"limit":10,"total":1,"gtin":"090255333947"}"Full Description:\nSub-X® (Subsonic — eXpanding) bullets deliver big results without a big bang!
