DoubleTap Lead Free ammunition in .308 Winchester (brand part no. 308W165X) is built for shooters reaching out on prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and coyotes. DoubleTap backs this load with the quality control shooters expect from a name they already trust. At the heart of this load is the 165 gr bullet with a Solid Copper Tipped Hollow Point (SC-THP) design, matched to the .308 Winchester platform shooters already run. In our rifle ammunition lineup, this is the DoubleTap load built for that job.
