Corbin .338" Standard Jacketed Firearm Die Set

Take Control of Your Ammunition with the Corbin .338" Die Set

Experience the freedom and reliability of crafting your own .338" jacketed bullets with the Corbin .338" Standard Jacketed Firearm Die Set. This versatile set allows you to create high-quality bullets featuring either a flat base, rebated boattail base, or both. The standard open tip nose design enables you to produce a variety of grain weights, giving you the flexibility to customize your ammunition to suit your specific shooting needs.

Advantages of Bullet Bases

  • Flat Base:
    • Simplicity and Cost-Effectiveness: Flat base bullets are generally easier and less expensive to manufacture, making them a practical choice for bulk production.
    • Stability in Shorter Distances: They perform well at shorter ranges, providing reliable accuracy for hunting and target shooting.
    • Ease of Swaging: The flat design simplifies the swaging process, making it an excellent option for those new to bullet making.
  • Rebated Boattail:
    • Improved Aerodynamics: The rebated boattail base enhances aerodynamic efficiency, reducing drag and improving stability in flight. This design leads to better accuracy over longer distances.
    • Reduced Recoil: The tapered design helps mitigate recoil, making it easier to handle, especially for high-powered rounds.
    • Better Feeding: The boattail shape improves feeding reliability in semi-automatic and automatic firearms, reducing the chances of jams.

Advantage of 6S Ogive Profile

  • 6S Ogive:
    • Gradual Curve for Stability: The 6S ogive features a more gradual curve, leading to enhanced stability and accuracy, particularly at longer ranges. This shape is ideal for standard shooting applications where precision is key.
    • Optimal Expansion: This profile often facilitates better terminal ballistics, aiding in consistent expansion upon impact.

Steps for Making a Bullet

  1. Prepare Your MaterialsGather your Corbin Precision Jackets, a 0.247" lead rod, and the Corbin .338" die set. Currently Corbin's do not offer an off the shelf 0.338" jacket, but you can purchase our 0.400" jackets (J-40-630 or J-40-143) and with a Corbin Jacket Reducing Die, reduce the jacket down to the 0.338" caliber. See the accessory products below for more information. 
  2. Cut the Lead Rod: Cut the lead rod to the desired length for your bullet's core, ensuring it fits into the jacket. 
  3. Swage a core: Place the cut lead into the core swage die to create a lead core that is the exact grain weight and diameter for your chosen jacket.
  4. Insert the Lead Core: Place the lead core into the jacket.
  5. Swage the Bullet: Using the die set, swage the jacket and lead core together. Apply steady pressure to ensure a tight fit.
  6. Adjust the Shape: If using a rebated boattail or specific ogive, follow the die's instructions to achieve the desired shape.
  7. Finish the Bullet: Place the jacket and seated core into the final point form die to shape the 6S nose of the bullet to your desired shape.
  8. Inspect Your Bullet: Check the final product for consistency and accuracy before using them for your intended purpose.

Additional Products Required

To get started with your new .338" die set, you will need a Corbin S-Press, 0.247" lead rod or Pre-Cut Lead if you know your desired grain weight, and Corbin Precision Jackets in .338" (J-40-630 or J-40-143) depending on the desired length and grain weight of the .338 projectile. Do not forget to grab a Jacket Reducing Die to reduce the .400" jacket to a 0.338" jacket.

You can produce .338" jacketed bullets with either a flat base or a rebated boattail base, with a 6S ogive.

In addition to the die set, you'll need a 0.247" lead rod and Corbin Precision Jackets (J-40-630 or J-40-143) along with a Jacket Reducing Die. You will also need a Corbin S-Press.

The die set allows for the creation of various bullet weights. You can adjust the amount of lead core you insert into the jacket to achieve your desired weight. You can also shorten the length of a jacket using a S-Press Jacket Trim Die (ET-2-S). 

The number of bullets you can produce is virtually unlimited, depending on the availability of jackets and lead. Once you have these materials, you can make as many bullets as you need.

While the basic process involves inserting the lead core into the jacket and applying pressure with the die set, it’s recommended to follow the detailed instructions on Corbin's website for best practices and techniques.
