Winchester's 308 Win 7.62x51mm NATO 147 gr Full Metal Jacket reloading bullets deliver the consistency and reliability you need to build precision rifle ammunition at home. These centerfire rifle bullets are engineered for shooters who reload their own cartridges—whether you're running a bolt-action hunting rifle, an AR-10, or a precision target gun. The 147-grain weight sits in the heavy-for-caliber sweet spot for the .308, offering excellent ballistic performance across medium to long-range applications while maintaining predictable downrange behavior.
