The 308 came onto the commercial market in 1952, and is now the most popular short-action hunting cartridge in the world. .308 / 7.62 NATO Ammo comes in a wide variety of applications from target to military to self-defense, but hunting is the aim of these loads. Sierra has been cranking out premium ammunition for over 70 years, and that continued quality shows in their products. This 308 winchester ammo is loaded with a 165-grain boat-tail (BT) Sierra Tipped GameKing bullet. The 308 hollow point has a polymer tip seated just right for fast expansion. Zeroed at 200 yards, it wallops game with 2,011.6 ft.-lbs. (foot-pounds) of energy. At that distance, the muzzle velocity of 2,680 fps (feet per second) has only dropped to 2,343.4 fps. Able to take down anything from deer to bear and moose, these are a powerful tool towards success on your next hunting trip.

So far this is the best shooting hunting ammo that my 308 MSR seems to like. I’m getting 3/4” 5 shot groups at 100 with my setup. Took it out on opening day this year, bagged an 8 point, 147 yard shot, buck went maybe 20 yards then expired. Unable to recover bullet as it was a pass thru. Minimal damage to meat. Exit wound was about the size of a quarter. Opened him up, major damage to lungs and top of the heart from the shock and energy transfer. Highly recommend if it shoots good out of your setup.

Accurate and effective on whitetail. My Tikka seems to like this ammo. Unlike my recent experience with some well known competitors this ammo actually fires every time I pull the trigger. If I can find it in 30.06 I will change to this ammo.
