Frequently Asked Questions

Will this work in a rifle marked 7.62 NATO? .308 Winchester and 7.62x51mm NATO chambers are dimensionally similar, and modern rifles chambered for either typically handle commercial .308 Winchester. Because .308 Win runs at higher pressure than 7.62 NATO military spec, check your rifle’s barrel markings or manufacturer guidance before using it in an older military-pattern 7.62 chamber.

Is this load good for practice and range training? Yes, this is a full-metal-jacket load built for affordable, high-volume range training rather than hunting or defense.

Is the brass reloadable? Yes, American Eagle uses new, never-fired brass that can be reloaded.
