.308 / 7.62 NATO

.308 Winchester ammo and the 7.62x51 cartridge are very similar to one another but are not technically identical. Despite the minor differences, the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers Institute has deemed the cartridges safe to use interchangeably.

The commercial load, .308, is an incredibly popular round among recreational shooters and hunters in the United States. Widely used to take down game such as whitetail deer, .308 with a specialty bullet can also be used to take down much larger game like caribou or black bear. Look for a number of soft point and expanding bullets available to hunters looking to use .308 in the field. Among these, Hornady's Interlock, Remington's Core-Lokt and Federal's Fusion line-up are extremely popular .308 cartridges for sale.

7.62x51 NATO, the military round, was actually derived from .308. 7.62x51mm ammo offers similar ballistics to 30-06 rounds but does so with a case that's slightly shorter, allowing less brass to be used in the manufacturing process and permitting military members to potentially carry more rounds at the same weight.

Recent .308 / 7.62 NATO Reviews

  • ☆☆☆☆☆
    The most overlooked, underrated 308 load out there. Outstanding performance from a bonded bullet. It's technically made for Duty and Defense, BUT works well for hunting as well. Will easily take deer and hogs. Not much different than Federal Fusion except the nickel plated shell. Very good quality 308 load.
    Rob on 20rds - 308 Speer Gold Dot 150gr. GDSP Ammo

    Took a whitetail buck , 8-pointer, in west central Virginia with one shot of this cartridge from my Sako model 75 Deluxe. He took one step and dropped like a sack of potatoes. The measured distance with my Leupold rangefinder was 150 yards. Can attest these bullets expand as advertised with devastating results.

    Fires and extracts flawlessly. Will definitely buy again. Great service.
    Steve B on 500rds - .308 PMC Bronze 147gr. FMJ-BT Ammo
  • ☆☆☆☆☆
    Accurate, with extensive expansion without fragmentation. Sold as defensive ammo but great for deer, hog size animals, pass through on deer, stays in medium or larger hogs but devastating performance either way.
