Berger’s 308 Winchester 185 Grain Classic Hunter rifle ammunition is a modern twist on a classic hunting round. The 308 Winchester has been a favorite for generations and continues to be a staple cartridge for hunting game of all sizes.
The 30 Caliber 185 Grain Classic Hunter Rifle Bullet is where the magic of this round comes from. This Rifle Bullet features a specialty hybrid shape which was designed to maximize Rifle Bullet BC while keeping the Rifle Bullet relatively short in comparison to other hybrid Rifle Bullets, which allows it to feed through magazine fed rifles effectively. This gives you the highest performing Rifle Bullet in its weight class that can shoot out of standard factory hunting rifle with a magazine. The slightly heavier 185 grain class Rifle Bullet gives you a better ballistic coefficient and more stopping power at a small amount of velocity loss over its 168 grain counterpart. It is ideal for a factory bolt rifle with a 1:12″ twist or faster.
We load this round with premium 308 Winchester brass, a temperature stable powder, and a match grade primer to ensure that the round will perform exactly as expected in varied temperatures and altitudes. If you have a factory 308 Winchester rifle that uses a magazine, this is an ideal round for hunting small, medium, and even some larger game such as elk.
