First round stiff coming off the enblock clip but to be expected.Also shot well in the HK & Mauser.Decent value for target shooting.

Shoots well - cleans up well - haven't had any issues in 500 rounds The only caveat is that there's some steel in the bullet - I don't think the entire bullet is steel but we were turned away when we went to shoot at a local indoor rifle range - the fella used a magnet to test the bullets One area where I was surprised was how clean the propellant burns - having listened to some folks talk, I expected to find a mess on the bolt face and in the receiver but that just has not been my experience

I've just finished going through all of my first can of this sweet ammo. Incredibly cheap and reliable, I've not had any issues with my PSA AR-10 while shooting it. Ammo is consistent enough for just shooting away an afternoon and not breaking the bank. I plan to buy more soon!

Great ammo and has very little sulfur smell when shot. Actual projectiles do have steel inside of them. So they are not range legal in California because of environmental hazards. Great value and accurate.

Have to admit that Malasian army surplus made me nervous, but after shooting a few hundred rounds off of my M1A and my Mossberg patriot I'm a believer.

There has been a surge in ammo sales and the availability is very limited ... or non-existant. Was glad to get this when I did. Hopefully will do more business in the future as supply of ammo picks up.

Wish they put a piece of tape to keep the box closed. I’m sure their rushing to get orders out, I recieved my package with an entire box open and rounds rolling around.

PC said:
The ammo is priced right and had zero mis-fires so far. As expected, it's a little dirty but effective.

D said:
This ammo works quite well in both my .308 semi-autos. It's not overly dirty and you don't run the risk of case fractures that you run with some of the older military surplus ammo. No reloading potential but if you're like me and don't reload but want some reliable plinking ammo this stuff is for you. It's not match grade, it's not reloadable, but it goes bang every time and I've yet to have a FTF/FTE in any of my rifles after around 800 rounds of this stuff. I've run it in 5-6 pistol and rifle calibers so far and had no trouble with any of it. Fair price, fast delivery, I recommend it. Thanks!

For a lighter cheaper round, this is a great bullet. Penetrated just behind the shoulder and severed the heart in half. The bullet did is job! Have shot all sorts of .308 and found this to be most effective.

Purchased 500 rounds of this ammo. Have fired 30 rounds so far with a total of 4 DUDS. Not a good ratio. Ammo is ok for just messing around and is pretty acurate given what I paid for it. DO NOT use this ammo for self defense or hunting, or any other time when you NEED the round to fire.

I shot a box of Wolf 145 grain FMJ 308's in my new Springfield M1A SOCIM-16 and they helped me break in the new rifle just fine. All rounds fired clean, no misfires, no jams. All rounds landed on my down-range target as expected. Will continue to use this ammo. All good. Happy shooter. Peter M.

DE said:
This ammo is garbage. Steel casing has hard time ejecting and ammo is flipping end-over-end until the target. Literally have lengthwise silhouette holes in the target with about an 18” spread at 100 yards. It’s like firing a curveball, you don’t know where it will hit unless you can predict the flipping rotation. Absolute garbage!

I've generally had good experience with sellier and bellot ammo. i will go for that over something like american eagle any day. it doesnt foul the gun up too bad and this .308 didnt cause any issues in my brand new SCAR. i would recommend this or PRVI Partizan (serbian ammo) over bottom of the barrel american stuff like blazer, magtech or american eagle. unfortunately it is FMJ so i had to buy some HP as well to make it shootable at some ranges.

Fired off 60 rounds and they were very consistant at the range I used. It was limited to 200 yards but they performed well. Will buy more when these are gone.

WildBill said:
Great round, going to buy more, thanks

Marty said:
Price was right, so far they have been 100% after shooting about 80 rounds.

Ash said:
Zero'd my new rifle in 2 groupings at 100yd. this round has not failed me in any regard yet, always hits right where I want it to and it hits hard. longest shot I've hit with this one is 870yd on a 7in x 5in target. I don't plan to use any other ammo for my rifle and I'd say if you're having trouble with groupings on your rifle that you give this ammo a try!

Dale said:
I always have these rounds on hand as they are truly one hole accurate from my Remington 700 with 26 inch bull barrel (with Zeiss scope) rifle. As most of you know the military "experts" use the match bullets for very long range work. This is exceptionally good ammo and the price for that is not measurable.

Cleggras said:
Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to shoot any of these rounds, however, these are the flavor that my rifle prefers. They typically group under an inch at 100 yards. They have just been so hard to find in stores in my area and at a price I can afford. Thank you!

Federal performed better than the Black Hills Gold Match I purchased for my Springfield M1A and will be purchase again.

Shooting this round for 10years. Pure bargain. 1:12 Twist, 20 inch barrel: 0.6 MOA every time!

This is so far the most consistent factory round in my bench gun and at a very low price. I have not been able to duplicate the consistency in a hand load yet.

I use my AR10 308 for whitetail deer hunting. I love and trust all of Hornady’s bullets for their engineering and each individual bullet style intent. Do your homework and get the right one for what game you are shooting.

I'm 82 years old and have been hunting whitetail deer since the late 1950s. I've hunted with just about every factory load available as well as my own carefully concocted handloads. This year, I bought a few boxes of Winchester Deer Season XP .308 150gr. When I sighted in my favorite Browning BAR rifle, I couldn't believe the 0.6", 100yd groups. I just double-lung shot a buck at 60yds and he dropped dead in his tracks. This is the absolute best factory load I have ever used.
