PMC 308XM X-Tac Match 308 Win 168gr OTM - 20 Rounds/Box

The PMC 308XM X-Tac Match 308 Win 168gr OTM round brings match-grade precision to your rifle range or competition shooting. Built on PMC's proven X-Tac platform paired with Sierra Bullets' renowned ballistics engineering, this 308 Winchester load delivers the consistency and accuracy serious shooters demand. Each 20-round box contains carefully assembled cartridges designed to group tight and perform predictably downrange, making it a solid choice for target shooters, precision rifle competitors, and hunters who value repeatability and confidence in their ammunition.

The 168-grain Open Tip Match bullet sits at the sweet spot for 308 Winchester shooting—heavy enough to carry energy and buck wind, yet light enough to maintain velocity and flat trajectory compared to heavier loadings. The published ballistics show a muzzle velocity of 2700 fps with a clean rise of 2 inches at 100 yards when zeroed at 200 yards, putting the bullet on paper quickly and staying manageable through 300 yards. That 0.462 ballistic coefficient means the bullet cuts through air efficiently, which translates to less wind drift and more forgiving shooting in variable conditions.

PMC ammunition has built a reputation for consistency and value in centerfire rifle rounds, and the X-Tac Match line upholds that standard. Whether you're building loads for a bolt-gun competition, dialing in a new rifle, or stocking up for serious practice, this 308 Winchester ammunition gives you the ballistic data and build quality to dial in and stay dialed in.

These ballistics are consistent and predictable, making them reliable for dialing in drop at known distances.

Is this ammunition suitable for long-range precision rifle competition?

Yes. The combination of a dedicated match bullet design, published ballistic data, and PMC's quality control make this round appropriate for precision rifle shooting. The 0.462 ballistic coefficient and consistent velocity help minimize wind deflection and provide the repeatability competitive shooters need.
