Wilson Combat’s .308 Winchester TME load (brand part no. LA308155TME) pairs a 155-grain Tipped Maximum Expansion bullet, designed by Lehigh Defense, with a high ballistic coefficient tip built for a specific job: punching through hard, dry barriers like wood, drywall, bone, or sheet metal without deforming or losing effectiveness along the way. Wilson Combat markets this as a genuinely barrier-blind .308 round for shooters who need reliable performance whether the target is in the open or behind cover — a meaningfully different design goal than a soft point built purely for open-field accuracy. In rifle ammunition engineered for barrier-blind performance, this is a specialized .308 load.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I shoot this in a 7.62 NATO-chambered rifle? The chambers are dimensionally similar, and modern rifles marked for either typically handle .308 Winchester — but commercial .308 Win runs higher pressure than 7.62 NATO military spec, so check your rifle’s barrel markings or the manufacturer’s guidance before using it in an older military-spec 7.62 chamber.

What does barrier-blind mean in practice? The bullet is engineered to punch through hard barriers without deforming prematurely, preserving penetration and terminal performance on the far side.
