Hornady Bullets 30 Cal .308 - 160gr FTX ammunition components deliver match-grade precision for hunters, precision rifle competitors, and law enforcement marksmen who demand repeatable accuracy and terminal performance. These 160-grain rounds are engineered for the .308 Winchester platform and serve shooters preparing handloads for medium to long-range hunting and tactical applications where velocity retention and energy delivery are non-negotiable.
The patented Flex Tip® design sets these projectiles apart from conventional solid-nose bullets by combining a polymer insert that prevents deformation in magazine feed systems while enabling consistent expansion upon impact. With a ballistic coefficient of .395 and sectional density of .241, the 160-grain FTX profile maintains excellent downrange velocity and energy, translating to flatter trajectories and more reliable energy transfer at extended distances. The .308-inch diameter ensures precise chamber fit across standard .308 Winchester rifles, AR-10 platforms, and bolt-action systems, while the 100-count boxes—packaged 15 per case—enable efficient reloading workflows for high-volume shooters.
Reloaders accustomed to Hornady's quality standards benefit from minimal run-out variance and consistent weight distribution, reducing the need for extensive sorting before loading. Lever-action rifle users—particularly Marlin Express platform owners—find the FTX design essential, as the Flex Tip prevents round-nose deformation in tube magazines while maintaining the velocity advantages of bottleneck cartridges. This bulk 1,500-round case format is ideal for shooters establishing load development baselines, running suppressed rifle courses, or maintaining consistent practice ammunition for precision rifles in tactical or hunting contexts.
