308 WIN HORNADY AMERICAN GUNNER 155 GRAIN HPBT (50 ROUNDS)

BOOM. BOOM. BOOM. That’s the sound of you kicking down my door. You finally bust through, pause to flick a splinter off your shoulder, and elegantly step into the room. “So, Ammo Man,” you say with cool collectedness. “Where’s the precision target 308 Win ammunition? Hmm?”

I put down the spoon I was using to eat Honey Nut Cheerios, pat my mouth dry with a napkin, and look up at you. “Ah,” I say, also cooly. “I’ve been expecting you. Here.” I toss a box of Hornady American Gunner 308 Win ammo to you. You catch it between your thumb and your forefinger.

I continue speaking: “This ammo hails from Nebraska, where it is loaded with flat-flying 155 grain hollow point boat tail projectiles. I know someone like you won’t mistake the HPBT for the kind of bullet you’d want for deer hunting. But between its low-drag external geometry, thin and concentric jacket, and rotationally stable swaged core, it provides precisely the ballistic performance you need to group your shots tighter than than the pasta in a bunch of spaghetti. Now, will there be anything else?”

“Yes,” you say, clearly impressed. “Just one more thing. Did Hornady report this round’s G1 ballistic coefficient?”

“Indeed they did,” I answer, turning back to my cereal before I resume speaking. “It’s 0.405, and Hornady’s test barrel is 24” long.”
