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

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.

Bought 500 rounds, been through 160 so far. No misfires, no bad brass, no deformation. Shot them out of an M1A socom and they run great. Only time I've found ammo cheaper is in limited quantity clearance sales. These are factory new, despite some mixed reviews i've found elsewhere indicating otherwise. All brass is marked AI USA 308 Win. I'm sure there is better quality ammo, but truthfully in times like this (10/22) with 308 averaging $1/rd everywhere for cheap crap this is a great bargain.

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!

Great round, going to buy more, thanks

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.

Found that this ammo was clean, reliable and accurate. Was at a good price point.

This stuff shoots as good as anything I have tried in my M1A scout squad.

Only shot one box so far but the ammo performed flawlessly in my M1A, as has all the ammo I have ran through this gun.

These Speer Gold Dot 308, 150 grain shells are great in my Ruger SFAR. The rifle is picky about ammo and worked best with polymer tip ammo. I tried these Gold Dots in 150 grain from 100 to 200 yards. Minimal exposed lead tip and chrome plated cases were accurate and reliable. Ruger SFAR prefers 150 grain for accuracy and these hovered around 1 3/8-1 1/2" at 100 yards. Sig 1x6 Tango, 2nd focal plane. Great ammo in light weight package.

I got a box of this stuff, and from the free container to the packaging to the asthetics of the ammo it looks like this company may be a very promissing ammo provider. I wish they would only add in a few more grains.

First box was all to the left and when I used other ammo I was bored in fine.and had a nf in the second box.

Brian said:
I ran these through my brand new rifle. And it did not cycle. I thought maybe it just needed a break in period but I ran a different ammo and it cycled. Just fine, my buddy put this ammo. Through his rifle and same thing, it would not cycle consistently. Not accurate at all. Just to all around garbage

Built a super light weight DPMS style AR10. This ammo runs perfectly. Been using it to fine tune the gas system. Works great. Not shooting for accuracy yet.

I purchased the Federal .308 American Eagle 150 grain FMJ-BT to shoot in my new FN FAL rifle, and boy was I impressed because I had never tried this ammo before. I was shooting at 50 and100 yards and getting .25" to .50" groupings. Also I had some Remington Cor-Lokt with me and it was noticeable that the Federal American Eagle had more recoil than the Remington. As a final note I shot 10 rounds at 250 yds at a clump of grass the size of a basketball and hit it every time from a hilltop on a powerline. Great ammo.

4 inch groups at 100 yds. 8 inch groups at 200. I had an expert confirm with my LMT platform. We double checked barrel lugs, optic lugs. I switched to Federal and groups were less than 2 inches at 100yds. Day after I had a gunsmith re-check barrel and optics. All checked out.

I've never had an issue with ammo purchased here. Quality stuff, and I didn't have to wait weeks to receive it. Ships fast!

Reggie said:
This ammo performs great, accurately, and I had zero malfunctions in my AR-10 with it. I will also say ammo.com is such a convenience for me since where I am has very limited options for ammo. Fair pricing as well ????????

Ammo shoots well, and performs great. Used on a 308 scout rifle and zeroed at 100 yards at a size of a nickel. Will work well for hunting.

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.
