The Cutting Edge Maximus line stands as a testament to innovation in ballistic technology, bridging the gap between high ballistic coefficient (BC) performance and devastating terminal effects. This hybrid bullet design marries the aerodynamic efficiency of Cutting Edge's popular MT bullets with the formidable trauma-inducing capabilities of their Raptor series.
The essence of the Maximus is its dual purpose: to deliver both precision at long range and significant impact upon arrival. It fulfills a critical niche within Cutting Edge's extensive lineup by offering a projectile that excels in both flight stability and target penetration. Designed for those who demand versatility from their ammunition, it ensures that no shot is ever wasted.
Upon penetrating 1-2 inches into the target, an impressive mechanism activates—4 to 8 blades detach from the main body, carving out a substantial wound channel. The velocity dictates this transformation; velocities exceeding 2400 fps result in all 8 blades deploying, while speeds down to 1400 fps activate four larger blades.
A defining feature of these bullets is their sleek profile complemented by Cutting Edge’s proprietary SealTite Band technology. This band forms an impeccable seal as each bullet exits its case, maintaining barrel integrity until final exit. Such engineering eliminates gas blow-by—a common foe against accuracy—and significantly reduces copper fouling inside your firearm.
For those accustomed to traditional lead-core projectiles yet seeking superior performance metrics without compromise on weight or control, the heavier construction of Maximus provides familiarity alongside cutting-edge enhancements.
Whether you are engaging targets at extended distances or requiring assured lethality up close, trust in Cutting Edge’s Maximus line—where tradition meets technological advancement for unrivaled results on every hunt or mission.
