This review covers the PSA 338 ARC pistol, highlighting its potential as a short-range hunting caliber, particularly for hogs and deer. The 338 ARC is based on a necked-up 6.5 Grendel case, offering approximately 250 more foot-pounds of energy than subsonic 300 Blackout. The pistol demonstrated reliable cycling with various magazines and suppressed use, though recoil from heavier rounds was noted as significant.
This video demonstrates the terminal ballistics of 338 ARC supersonic ammunition fired into a ballistic gel block. The test reveals a significant wound channel, with the bullet appearing to tumble and deviate, ultimately stopping within the gel. The performance is contrasted with a previous 300 Blackout supersonic shot that penetrated completely through the block.
