Buying ammunition by the box from the same production lot keeps velocity and point of impact consistent from one range trip to the next. Keep a record of the load you carry, check your ammunition for dents or loose bullets from time to time, and rotate your carry rounds so the ones in your firearm stay fresh. These simple habits help you get the full performance Hornady builds into every cartridge.
Before you trust any new load, fire enough rounds through your firearm to confirm it feeds, fires and ejects reliably and that the point of impact matches your sights. Full-power loads produce more recoil and muzzle blast than typical range ammo, so practice with the Hornady 308 Win 125gr SST until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.
The .308 Winchester was introduced in 1952 as a commercial version of the 7.62x51mm NATO round, and it has become one of the most widely used rifle cartridges in the world. It offers a balance of power, accuracy and manageable recoil that works for hunting, target shooting and duty use, and regular practice with a consistent load is the best way to get the most from it.
