Norma Bondstrike .308 Win 180 grain ammunition pairs a bonded polymer tip with consistent brass casing to deliver reliable accuracy and terminal performance across typical hunting distances and impact velocities. The 180-grain projectile weight in .308 Winchester makes this round a versatile choice for medium to large game hunters who want dependable expansion without sacrificing velocity retention or shot placement precision. Whether you're working inside 200 yards or stretching to longer prairie shots, Bondstrike's construction is built to track true and perform when it counts.
The bonded core design keeps the bullet together through impact, resisting the fragmentation that can occur with standard cup-and-core bullets. This means more consistent penetration and energy transfer, whether game is at close range or distance has slowed your round. Norma's ammunition is loaded to exacting standards, so you get the same point-of-impact and velocity shot to shot—essential for hunters who practice and expect their loads to perform the same way in the field as at the range.
This is working ammunition for hunters who've standardized on .308 Winchester and aren't looking for match-grade precision at 1,000 yards, but rather a round that'll handle a typical fall hunt or winter varmint season with solid accuracy and stopping power. Twenty rounds per box means you can keep your hunting rifle fed without overcommitting to a single load.
