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.

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!

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.
