Frequently asked questions

What makes the 168-grain weight suitable for 308 Winchester precision shooting?

The 168-grain projectile balances bullet length and aerodynamics in standard 308 Winchester cases. ELD Match design minimizes wind drift at distance while maintaining stability in most rifle twist rates, making it popular for competition and long-range target work.

Does Superformance powder increase velocity compared to standard 308 loads?

Superformance formulation delivers enhanced velocity without pressure spikes. This consistent burn rate supports tighter velocity spreads, which directly improves group sizes at distance—critical for match shooting where every tenth of an inch counts.
