The Hornady 30502 A-MAX 168-grain .308 rifle bullet is purpose-built for reloaders who demand precision and consistency. Each box contains 100 bullets, and you can order by the case (15 boxes) for volume shooters stocking up for serious long-range work or competitive shooting seasons. The A-MAX design has earned respect among precision riflers for its aerodynamic profile and dependable construction—attributes that matter when you're assembling ammunition tailored to your specific rifle and range conditions.
Hornady's A-MAX line emphasizes low drag and flatter trajectory through a refined ogive and boat-tail geometry. The result is a ballistic coefficient optimized for distance, which translates to less wind deflection and energy retention downrange. That efficiency comes from engineering attention: near-zero variation in jacket thickness across every bullet ensures uniform bullet-to-bullet performance, reducing the vertical spread that kills accuracy in handloaded ammo. When you're reloading, consistency is non-negotiable, and the A-MAX delivers it.
These 168-grain bullets are a versatile choice for the .308 Winchester platform—suitable for hunting medium to large game, precision rifle matches, or distance shooting at the range. Reloaders appreciate the A-MAX for its compatibility with standard .308 loading practices and its track record of clean, predictable expansion on game or target. Whether you're fine-tuning loads for a bolt-action hunt rifle or running a precision semi-auto, these bullets reward careful handloading technique with results.
