The all new MAXIMUS® line is a hybrid between our popular high BC MTH® bullets and our extreme trauma producing Raptor™ bullets. This truly unique line is the missing piece in the Cutting Edge Bullets product line offering.

-Extreme trauma

-High BC

-Heavier weight

-Competitively priced

- 0-1200yd effective range


We have offered an extensive number of bullet lines to fill every need, but the one thing that was missing was a bullet designed for high BC AND high trauma. The Maximus® line is a hybrid between CEB’s high BC MTH (Match/Tactical/Hunting)® line and their high trauma Raptor™ line, filling in the missing piece of the CEB product line offering.

The Maximus® is also designed to be more destructive and have deeper penetration than the Raptor series. After 1-2” of penetration, 4-8 blades break off and create one large, massive wound channel. The number of blades shed is dependent upon velocity. Eight blades will break off at impact velocities over 2400fps, and below that, 4 larger blades will break off down to 1400fps.

They feature a sleek, smooth profile and feature our unique SealTite® Band. This patented technology is a band slightly larger than caliber diameter around the body of the bullet which creates a complete seal as the bullet exits the case and maintains that seal until it exits the barrel. This in turn increases accuracy by eliminating gas blow-by and decreasing copper fouling.

The Maximus® line has also been designed to be heavier than the Raptor series making them more appealing to traditional, lead core bullet users.

I ordered a sample pack of 160 & 180 grain Maximus .358 diameter bullets to check dimension in my 357 Maximum CVA Scout Pistol. This is my 200 yard deer pistol. The 180s fit better so bought 50 to test for accuracy and velocity. A max load shoots the 160s at 2350 fps and the 180s at 2150 FPS. These speed are practical and safe because the bullets are seated long, with the seal-ring just kissing the throat for perfect alignment. Today I sighted in the pistol with 180s. Three bullets went into the same hole, 2" high at 50 yards, so I stopped there. This fall I will test them on game and report. Maximus' may not be economical for plinking, but I hope to live long enough to shoot the remaining 40 bullets at game. A true least-cost hunting bullet.

I have been a devoted user of the Raptors for about 5 years or more. I have loaded the Maximus for other calibers but had yet to get the chance to use them on game. I bought theses to load for my 35 Whelen to use for an Elk trip. Well I was able to put down a nice cow and fill my tag. The bullet entered broadside behind the left front shoulder and the base of the bullet exited directly across from the entry. The pedals did exactly as they were supposed to and the heart and both lungs were shredded. She never took a single step. I don't think they are quite as effective as the Raptor line but they are heavier across the board. I used this 180Gr because the raptors are only available in a 160gr in the .358 and I wanted a bit heavier bullet.
