PMC‘s X-Tac Match ammunition in .308 Winchester (brand part no. 308XM) loads a 168-grain open tip match bullet built as a dedicated competition load, not a repurposed range round. PMC designed X-Tac Match to raise the bar, giving shooters ammunition consistent enough to shoot at their true potential every time they pull the trigger. The open tip match design and boat tail base are engineered for the accuracy and round-to-round consistency competitive shooters demand, rather than hunting-style expansion. The cartridge is also marked .308 / 7.62 NATO, reflecting its dimensional compatibility with 7.62x51mm NATO-chambered rifles. For .308 Winchester shooters chasing tighter groups, this rifle ammunition is built for the match table.
