New 250 grain Core-Lokt 338 Marlin load from Remington...
Just saw it on the Remington website. A 250 grain Core-Lokt load for the 338 ME. MPBR of 200 yards.
That sounds like the real deal! I can't imagine a more versatile levergun/cartridge combination for big game.
I want one now!

Sounds good to me. When I got my .338ME I bought 6 boxes of LE ammo so I wont need any for a LOOOOONG time but good to know anyway.
I probably will never hunt anything larger than Deer with mine. The Elk and Bear hunters will find the 250 gr. bullet to their liking I bet.

I don't need another levergun.....I don't need another levergun.....I don't need another levergun......
Oh who am I kidding I don't need most of what I've got now, but I'd sure like to have a 338 MX.

I too like the MX. I wish they offered a 20" with full length mag though. I just like that look a little better.
Hurry up tax refund!

darn thats good news, I have been holding off on a rechamber of my 33wcf, even if I have to buy the ammo, my "Q" bullet puller will go to work
Re: New 250 grain Core-Lokt 338 Marlin load from Remington...
i can't seem to find it on their website. What do they list for the balistics?
Re: New 250 grain Core-Lokt 338 Marlin load from Remington...
Hey Ben. Their new website is pretty pitiful, but try this link:
http://www.remington.com/comparison.aspx
If that doesn't work:
go to "Products",
"Ammunition",
"Centerfire",
"Core-Lokt",
"Core-Lokt Centerfire" (link in middle of page)
"Specifications"
Scroll down to "338 Marlin Express" NOTE: It is NOT in proper numerical order
Ridiculous huh?
Anyway, I hope you find it!

Just under 2200 fps. Not bad . They really didn't make that easy to find.
Re: New 250 grain Core-Lokt 338 Marlin load from Remington...
Kinda makes me wish I hadn't traded off my 338MX and sold my 338MXLR

That's great news for the 33 wcf shooters. Now we have several choices to choose from, assuming Rem eventually sells the bullets as components.

Dam I lost my post I made yesterday still new to the site.
I really hope they make that bullet in component form for my 33win I have a stock pile of 200gr Hornady's I paid only $8.00 a box for that's $8.00 CDN. It's a light wight 86 with a very thin barrel, and I toy with the idea of a .33win Imp I know it will kill the colector value but I will never sell it and I bet it would be just like my 71 in .348.
