Federal Vital-Shok Nosler Partition 180 Grain 308 Winchester (7.62X51) Ammo - 20 Rounds

Use of the .308 Winchester and 7.62 NATO round is approved for use in each other’s chambers. That is but one reason why the caliber has become almost a global standard of full sized rifle cartridges. Used for both military and sporting purposes almost everywhere provides all the proof one needs for its suitability for most any application save for extreme long distance shooting. Even then, however, there are attempts to make it work that are often successful.

Federal Premium’s Vital Shok 180 grain bullet has a muzzle velocity of 2570 feet per second with 2640 foot pounds of energy. This is a premium (says so in the name) cartridge designed for hunting medium to large game.

Federal’s Vital Shock uses a Nosler partition bullet to deliver maximum results to the target. Essentially two lead slugs that are separated by the encased copper jacketing with a soft point, the first slug opens on penetration and expands to the point of the second slug. This gives uniform expansion but retains the mass of the second to maintain deep penetration to deliver complete results in the field. Loaded with the best powder mis Federal has and in cases that are reloadable, it is easy to see why sports hunters choose Federal when heading out.
