Description

Fort Scott Munitions .308 Winchester ammunition (part no. 308-168-SCV) loads a 168-grain Solid Copper Spun Tumble Upon Impact for hunters and outdoorsmen who need maximum penetration on big or dangerous game. Fort Scott Munitions machines each bullet from a solid copper rod rather than casting or jacketing it, a different approach built around controlled fragmentation instead of expansion. Rather than expanding, this machined copper bullet is engineered to tumble on impact, creating an aggressive wound channel while resisting fragmentation. Brass-cased and 20 to a box, it is built to feed reliably through bolt guns and semi-autos chambered for the cartridge. In our rifle ammunition lineup, this .308 Winchester loading is a confirmed, dependable choice worth adding to the cart.
