Superformance Ammunition - 308 Winchester, Cx, 165 Gr, 20/bx

Hornady Superformance Ammunition in 308 Winchester with 165-grain Copper eXpanding projectiles delivers velocity gains up to 200 feet per second without introducing the pressure, recoil, muzzle blast, temperature sensitivity, or fouling penalties that typically accompany such performance increases. Each box contains 20 rounds of factory-loaded ammunition engineered with progressive propellants designed to maximize efficiency across the burn sequence, translating to flatter trajectories and retained energy at distance.

The 165-grain bullet weight in 308 Winchester represents an optimal balance for modern rifle platforms, offering sufficient sectional density for deep penetration while maintaining velocity stability in variable wind conditions common to medium and long-range shooting. Hornady's Copper eXpanding bullet construction delivers controlled expansion with minimal fouling—a critical consideration for shooters maintaining firearms on extended range days or in operational environments where bore cleaning intervals matter. The Superformance propellant technology maintains consistent velocities across ambient temperature ranges, eliminating the velocity shift that compromises zero stability in variable weather.

This ammunition suits precision rifle training, hunting applications, and long-range shooting where accuracy and velocity consistency are non-negotiable. The 308 Winchester remains the standard for precision rifle work across military, law enforcement, and civilian marksmanship communities, and the Superformance loading maximizes what modern receivers and barrels are capable of delivering. Shooters upgrading from standard 308 Winchester loads will observe measurable velocity gains translated into improved drop compensation at extended distances and tighter shot grouping when fired through properly maintained rifles.
