Description
Have you ever wondered what it would have been like to live during the peak of the Britain’s imperial century, setting off toward some exotic corner of the world with nothing on you save for your pith helmet, flask of gin, and 303 British rifle? Nothing like those old times will ever be again, but you can still don a pith helmet, drink deeply of your flask, and experience authentic performance from your 303 British with this round from Hornady’s Match line of ammunition.
rThis round has an accurate 174 grain projectile that you’ll find behaves exceptionally rewardingly at the range. Its tapered base raises its ballistic coefficient, giving you the flat trajectory and resistance to wind drift that you need to peg tiny targets downrange. Its hollow point meplat is remarkably consistent, enabling you to make tight groupings provided you didn’t drink too deeply of your flask. (We must at this point insist that you fill your flask with chocolate milk instead of gin if you’re going anywhere near a rifle.) Hornady’s brass casing seats their bullet perfectly, further heightening its accuracy, and their propellant charge delivers a muzzle velocity which you’ll never have to guess at.
