Looking for an affordable 308 Winchester deer load you can practice with, too? Pick up this 200 round case of PMC Bronze 308SP 308 Win 150 grain pointed soft point ammo.
This load uses a 150 grain pointed soft point bullet. The pointed profile gives it better aerodynamics than a round nose, so it shoots flatter and holds energy farther downrange. The exposed lead tip starts expansion on impact, and the copper jacket controls that expansion so the bullet penetrates into the vitals. That classic design has taken countless whitetail, mule deer, black bear, and hogs. PMC rates this load at 2,820 fps and 2,648 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. With a 200 yard zero, you can hold on a deer’s vitals out to roughly 275 yards without much holdover. The 150 grain weight also keeps recoil moderate for younger and newer hunters.
The 308 Winchester is one of the most popular hunting and target cartridges in the world. It is chambered in bolt-action rifles like the Remington 700, Ruger American, Savage 110, Tikka T3x, and Winchester Model 70, as well as semi-automatics like the AR-10, M1A, and FN FAL. PMC, short for Precision Made Cartridges, has built reliable ammunition since 1981 and its Bronze line is known for quality at a fair price. Since you should practice with the same ammo you hunt with, a 200 round case lets you zero your scope, practice from field positions, and still have plenty for several seasons. Note that the 7.62x51mm NATO and 308 Winchester are closely related; check your rifle’s barrel markings before firing.
This PMC ammo is new production, brass-cased, Boxer-primed, and non-corrosive. The fired brass is reloadable. Each box holds 20 rounds, and ten boxes make up this 200 round case. Store the extra boxes in a cool, dry place and they will be ready for many seasons.
