Overview
Built for hunters and range shooters who want a .308 Winchester load with added velocity, this ammunition pairs Hornady’s Superformance line with a 150-grain SST bullet in a 20-round box. It is described as using progressive propellants and consistent components to support dependable shooting, while remaining safe for use in semi-autos, lever guns, and pump actions. The listed performance figures include a muzzle velocity of 3000 fps and muzzle energy of 2997 ft-lbs, making it a practical option when a bit more speed is part of the goal. Brass casing and the .308/7.62 NATO chambering add to its straightforward utility for hunting and target work.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- This is a 20-round box, so it may be better suited to sight-in, range work, or a specific hunt than to high-volume practice.
- The load is built around a 150 gr SST bullet in .308 Win / 7.62 NATO, so it may not match every rifle’s preferred bullet weight or hunting setup.
- Hornady notes it is safe for use in semi-autos, lever guns, and pump actions, but it is still important to confirm your firearm is chambered for .308 Win / 7.62 NATO before use.
- The product description emphasizes higher velocity and energy, but actual results will still depend on the rifle, barrel length, and conditions.
