PPU Standard .308 Winchester rifle ammunition (brand part no. PP3083) loads a 180-grain soft point bullet, part of a line PPU designed specifically for big game hunting. PPU builds the Standard line around best-quality components chosen for accuracy, dependability, and effectiveness rather than cutting corners to hit a lower price point. At 180 grains, this is a heavier, deeper-penetrating option than lighter bullets in the lineup, a common choice for larger game like elk where retained bullet weight matters more than a flat trajectory at extended range. For .308 Winchester or 7.62 NATO hunters chasing larger game, this rifle ammunition from PPU is built for exactly that.
