Buy .308 Ammo for Sale

The 308 WIN cartridge is perhaps the most common type of cartridge in our time. Great lethal force and versatility.

The 308 WIN cartridge appeared in the late 40s as a replacement for the .30-06 cartridge, which was the main one for the American army throughout the Second World War. The new technology was distinguished primarily by its smaller size and weight, as well as more effective powder, due to which the 308 WIN received proper ballistics.

Taking into account the enormous capabilities of the American government, the cartridge was imposed on all NATO members as a standard, and even those countries that had their own rifle cartridges that fully met the requirements of the time had to buy the 308 WIN. In particular, Germany, France, England and Italy abandoned their cartridges.

However, after a few years, based on combat experience, it became clear that the power built into the cartridge was excessive for automatic fire, which required the development of a new low-pulse cartridge. As a result, it became the famous 5.56x45mm, which is still used as a NATO standard, and has spread all over the world not only for army but also for hunting weapons.

You can buy 308 WIN in a wide variety of versions, including tracer bullets, armor-piercing bullets, and so on. The sleeve is mostly brass.

In general, the characteristics of the cartridge correspond to the indicators of the domestic 7.62x54mm, which is used for SVD and machine guns.
