308 WIN BLACK HILLS 168 GRAIN HPBT MATCH (500 ROUNDS)

The art of sniping is actually named after a certain game bird. The snipe, a handsome little bugger with a beak like an awl, is so well camouflaged and flies so erratically that being able to shoot one earned you a special title: “sniper.” And while this 308 Win cartridge by Black Hills may not be the first thing you’d use for a four ounce bird, it is perfect for sniping your way to victory at your next shooting match.

Black Hills armed this round with a 168 grain HPBT projectile. This bullet’s evenly distributed core and concentric jacket grant it excellent gyroscopic stability in flight. Its narrow tip and tapering base both let it meet with less drag as it whizzes farther and farther downrange, and its jacketed base provides a highly uniform surface for propellant gasses to push against. This isn’t the sort of hollow point you should look to for the terminal expansion you’d want for hunting. Precision is the name of the HPBT’s game.

And high quality is the name of Black Hills’ game. This 308 Win round is loaded by an industry leader, whose ammo is in high demand wherever accuracy is held in high regard. This round’s primer and propellant are both formulated for super consistent performance, and its brass shell casing seats its tack driving bullet ever so neatly. Hang onto that brass for yourself or any handloader who can enjoy it!
