The .348 Win. is a centerfire rifle cartridge, delivering powerful energy on target, which shapes where it fits between varmint work, big-game hunting, and precision shooting. A representative 200-grain loading leaves the muzzle at roughly 2520 fps and carries about 2822 ft-lbs of energy, with a G1 ballistic coefficient near 0.246. With a modest BC, it sheds velocity faster downrange and is best kept to shorter distances. Based on its energy and trajectory, ethical ranges work out to roughly small game and varmints to about 150 yards; medium game such as deer to about 225 yards; larger game to about 250 yards — always within the limits of your own accuracy and local regulations. Recoil is generally stout for the class, and our database tracks 1 factory loading so you can compare bullet weights and velocities for your specific use. Figures here are for reference and informational use — always verify against manufacturer data.
