Description
These .308 Winchester rounds offer potent energy to get the job done right when you’re on the hunt for big game like wild hogs, whitetail deer, and even smaller moose or black bears. Winchester manufacturers this ammunition in Illinois using top-tier assembly processes, inspection points, and component materials. Each round is based on a reloadable brass casing which has a non-corrosive Boxer primer affixed to its bottom. The cartridge is finished with Winchester’s own Power-Point projectile which weighs in at 150 grains: a proven weight for the .308 caliber that matches many military surplus and range loads.
rThe Power-Point bullet goes above standard soft points by including small skivings where the copper jacket meets the exposed lead tip along with a toothed cannelure at its crimp point. The former promotes reliable expansion at a wider range of impact distances while the latter prevents the jacket and lead core from separating; components that separate don’t penetrate as deeply and can shallowly wound an animal while leaving it to run off, an inhumane outcome that no hunter wants. When this round expands in a target, it passes its energy to vital areas and promotes faster bleeding for a quicker kill and more tasteful meat that isn’t laced with adrenaline.
