I went to 180 from 150, my Savage 110 308 shoots like a guided missile, 118 yds and 3 rds where under an inch. I used a rest to zero scope in, at least I know now, if I miss , Its me. My Savage has a 1-10 twist and it seems to work best with the 180 grain

This is the only factory ammo I have tried that shoots with hand-loaded accuracy out of my 18in. Ruger GSR (the stainless model). When making my bi-weekly ammo grabs, this is the only factory box I pick up for 308. I have only used a few boxes, but that’s because I hand-load 175gr SMK’s with the left-over brass. I\’m not sure how many times they’ll be reloadable, but I can say they’ve been reloaded at least 8 times. So in short, they’re consistent rounds with top-quality brass.

I bought this ammo for my Ruger American compact 308 after I figured out that my rifle is picky on the speed of the bullet. I have shot multiple deer with this ammo. Every deer was a bang flop. It’s definitely the ammo I’ll be sticking with with this rifle!

Fed very well with no issues. Accurate, and American made. Downside is boxes of 150 appear to be filled by weight with the scale set a bit light. All my boxes arrived taped shut and contained only 146 rounds vs. the advertised 150. The cost per round is bad enough without short selling customers.

Shot 1,000 rounds of the Winchester 36 grain 1280 fps .22 LR in 3 sessions over the last month out of a Remington 597 heavy barrel with heavy laminated stock. About half with a Nikon Prostaff Rimfire II 3-9x scope and half with a Bushnell 1x red dot, both zeroed at 50 yards. 1.5″ groups with the Nikon; 2.5″ with the Bushnell; both from an outdoor bench with barrel support. I am 71 years old and not as steady as I used to be. I am sure the rifle and ammo can shoot better than I can. Total of 6 FTF; all were good strikes on bad primers. Total of 3 FTE; one near the end of each session – probably from a dirty bolt. Did not clean the rifle except at the end of each session.

I bought a 150 round pack at cabelas for $90. That’s about .60 a round. Not sure why Midway is so much more expensive.

This is great ammo for a 22LR firearm take is suitable for supersonic Velocity ammo. Now my Ruger target from Ruger was not designed to shoot this velocity ammo. I have in stall all key parts required for supersonic velocity ammo and fires, feeds without jams. It’s not ammo when these things happen most often the gun was not designed to handle and would need converted.

Since reloading supplies are few and far between I decided to buy a 22LR and got a Savage MKII and put a Vortex Viper 6.5-20 I had lying around. I got this ammo and my rifle loves it. No misfires and I got excellent groups at 100 yards. I compared it to some CCi Stingers I had and the Winchester shot as well if not a little better. In a few days I’ll see how it does at 200 yards. I only wish Midway would have sold me 3 boxes instead of limiting me to 1 so I can shoot more but rules are rules.

I use the CMMG 22LR conversion kit in my AR-15 and have read that a copper plated bullet is cleaner than a lead-head bullet. After putting nearly 100 rounds through the barrel, I can say that it seemed like there was less residue when I cleaned the gun so I am very happy with these rounds.
