Swift A-Frame .308 Winchester ammunition (Swift part no. 10049) loads a 165-grain A-Frame bullet for hunters who need one shot to finish the job on tough, heavy-boned game. Swift Bullet Company builds the A-Frame around a partitioned, bonded-core construction that controls expansion instead of relying on velocity alone, so the bullet performs the same whether the shot breaks at 50 yards or 300. At a rated velocity of 2,697 fps, this .308 Win load carries enough energy for elk-class animals without sacrificing the weight retention that drives penetration. For rifle ammunition built around controlled expansion and deep penetration, the A-Frame has earned its reputation on game around the world.

Key Specifications

• The chambering is .308 Winchester, one of the most versatile big-game and precision cartridges built.
• The bullet weighs 165 grains, a proven weight for deer, elk, and other North American big game.
• The bullet is Swift’s A-Frame, a partitioned, bonded-core design that keeps the front and rear cores from separating on impact.
• Expansion is controlled to 2.2 times original diameter, wide enough for a fast kill without shedding the bullet.
• Weight retention runs 95 percent or better, so the bullet keeps driving forward for full-depth penetration on quartering shots.
• The rated velocity is 2,697 fps, giving the load a flat trajectory at typical hunting ranges.
• Each box holds 20 rounds, enough to verify zero and still head into the field.

Frequently Asked Questions

What game is the A-Frame 165gr built for? Its bonded-core construction and 95 percent weight retention make it suited for deer-sized game up through elk and larger, tougher animals.

Why does the A-Frame use a partitioned design? The internal partition keeps the front and rear lead cores separate, so the bullet expands up front while the rear core stays intact and keeps driving forward.
