308 Win – 168 gr ELD-M – Black Hills (1C308BHGN11) – 100 Rounds

Long range shooters who run a 308 want a match bullet with a high ballistic coefficient, and Black Hills Gold pairs one with careful assembly. This listing is Black Hills Gold 308 Win 168 grain Hornady ELD Match ammo, MPN 1C308BHGN11, sold as 100 rounds. It suits precision rifle competitors, F-Class shooters, and hunters who want an accurate load for practice at distance.

Retail specifications list this load at 2,650 fps with 2,619 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The ELD Match, short for Extremely Low Drag, uses a heat resistant polymer tip that keeps the ballistic coefficient stable as the bullet flies, plus a boat tail base that reduces drag. Those features help it hold velocity and resist wind at long distances. It is a match bullet, built for accuracy rather than controlled expansion, so it is meant for target shooting and competition, not hunting.

This ammunition fits rifles chambered in 308 Winchester, including the Remington 700 PCR and 5R, Savage 10 and 110 Elite Precision, Tikka T3x TAC A1, Ruger Precision Rifle, Bergara HMR, Springfield M1A, and AR-10 pattern rifles. A common question is whether this ammo is safe in a 7.62×51 NATO rifle. Yes. Commercial 308 Win fits 7.62 NATO chambers. Another common question is how far 168 grain 308 stays supersonic. From a typical 24 inch barrel it stays supersonic out to roughly 800 to 900 yards depending on conditions, so check with a ballistic calculator.

Black Hills 1C308BHGN11 is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA in Rapid City, South Dakota. It uses reloadable brass cases with boxer primers and non-corrosive components. The listing ships as 5 boxes of 20 rounds for 100 total from one lot, so velocity and drop stay consistent through a match or a range day. Shooters who log their come ups can trust that data for every box in the case.
