Weatherby Select Plus ammunition is some of the highest quality production ammunition on the market today. A great deal of research and development went into Weatherby's Select Plus Line. Weatherby's goal during the development phase was to create a factory cartridge which is flat shooting, hard hitting, and of course accurate! With Weatherby's extensive knowledge and long history supporting hunters it was a natural fit. Weatherby was able to develop parings combining projectiles and cartridges which will fit any modern hunters needs. These unique combinations ultimately will provide you with a distinct advantage over any of your prey.

The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 338-378 Weatherby Magnum, introduced in 2005, is based on the big, belted 378 Weatherby Magnum case necked down to 338. It is thus similar in case capacity and velocity to the 338 Lapua Magnum, but the Weatherby case is belted and the Lapua case is not. Like the Lapua, velocity and long-range performance are spectacular...but there are prices in recoil and muzzle blast. A full-size magnum action is required, and results are best with barrels of 26 inches or greater. Weatherby is the primary supplier of both rifles and ammunition. Weatherby factory loads include a 225-grain bullet at 3180 feet per second and a 250-grain bullet at 3060. These figures obviously yield amazing downrange performance, making it an excellent choice for elk-sized game at longer ranges. —
