Hornady 397110 ELD Match Bullet Seating Stems 338 Cal 270gr

The Hornady 397110 ELD Match Bullet Seating Stems deliver precision seating for 338 caliber 270-grain ELD Match bullets. These specialized stems eliminate bullet deformation during the seating process, ensuring consistent overall cartridge length and optimal accuracy potential.

What Makes This Different

Unlike generic seating stems that contact bullets at random points, the Hornady 397110 features a precision-machined contact surface that matches the specific ogive profile of 270-grain ELD Match bullets. This targeted design prevents bullet tip damage and maintains the aerodynamic integrity that makes ELD Match projectiles capable of sub-MOA accuracy. Standard stems often create inconsistent seating depths due to bullet deformation, while this stem maintains uniform contact pressure across multiple loading sessions.

Key Features

• Precision-machined contact surface matches 270gr ELD Match bullet ogive profile
• Eliminates bullet tip deformation during seating process
• Compatible with Hornady Lock-N-Load AP and Classic presses
• Maintains consistent overall cartridge length within 0.001 inches

Competitive long-range shooters rely on these stems to maintain the precision that ELD Match bullets provide at extended distances. The consistent seating depth translates directly to improved velocity standard deviation and enhanced accuracy potential beyond 1000 yards. Hunters loading for long-range applications benefit from the improved bullet alignment that reduces flyers and maintains point of impact consistency.
