Cent Arms Mke 762Nato 147Gr 20/1000
Century Arms M80 7.62 NATO ammunition in 147-grain full metal jacket is a reliable, affordable choice for rifle shooters who want dependable centerfire rounds without the premium price tag. Whether you're zeroing a hunting rifle, running drills at the range, or stocking up for regular practice, this brass-cased ammo delivers consistent performance across AR-10s, bolt-action rifles, and other 7.62 NATO-chambered firearms. The 147-grain FMJ bullet is a classic military-spec load that prints predictably and cycles reliably in most semi-automatic platforms.
Century Arms has built a reputation for no-nonsense ammunition that does the job. This load uses boxer-primed brass cases, so you can reload if you're into handloading, or simply recycle the brass if you're not. The full metal jacket construction means this round is best suited for range work and training rather than hunting—but for shooters who want to build muscle memory and log rounds downrange without breaking the bank, it's a smart option.
Each box contains 20 rounds; a full case holds 50 boxes (1,000 rounds total), making it easy to stock up for extended range sessions or to keep your ammo locker ready. If you run 7.62 NATO and shoot regularly, having this in your rotation means less time worrying about inventory and more time behind the trigger.
