Great 308 Win ammo won’t make you a better marksman. But without it, you’ll never know how good a marksman you really are. Hornady Match ammunition is designed for sharpshooters who truly understand what they’re doing, as well as folks who are sharpening their skills toward nailing the coveted 1,000-yard shot!
This cartridge is loaded with a 178 grain boat tail hollow point match projectile. Right off the bat, put any thoughts of terminal expansion out of your mind. The BTHP’s nose cavity is only there because its lead core was injection molded to its copper alloy jacket, thus accounting for its heightened rotational stability.
Its sleek frontal profile and drag-reducing angled base both help the BTHP retain more of its velocity as it courses toward its target. Once the heavy bullet picks up a 2,600 fps muzzle velocity out of a 24” barrel, its 0.530 G1 ballistic coefficient will see that it doesn’t undergo transonic destabilization until almost 1,200 yards!
Hornady’s not wasting this ammo’s bullets on anything but the highest-quality brass cases. Each meets strict criteria for wall thickness uniformity, wall concentricity, capacity and weight, and contains the match primer and expertly loaded propellant that super-predictable ballistics depends upon.
