Description
These full metal jacket boat tail (FMJ-BT) projectiles from IMI match the specification for NATO M80 7.62x51mm Ball and are appropriate for handloading a number of .30 caliber cartridges; specification uniformity also means that these bullets are support by proven published formulas. Each bullet measures .308 inches at its major diameter where it possesses a toothed cannelure for secure crimping; this prevents jostling caused by recoil and rough handling in order to preserve final accuracy.
rThe tapered ogive and rear of the FMJ-BT profile are designed to resist drag while in flight which contributes to greater precision and tighter groups. A projectile weight of 147 grains makes these bullets great for making blasting ammo as well as long range practice loads. IMI, or Israel Military Industries, is well recognized for large scale munition production alongside firearms like the Uzi and Jericho 941. Their components and finished ammunition are manufactured to exacting standards in order to serve the country’s armed forces and commercial exports. This 500 count pack will give a reloader plenty of bullets to do a proper load work-up on their way to the perfect cartridge.
