Barnes VOR-TX TTSX 130 Grain 308 Winchester (7.62X51) Ammo - 20 Rounds

The dual labeling of cartridges as .308 and 7.62x51 can, and has, led to some confusion over the years. While both cartridges can safely be fired in the other’s chambers, the .308 is sometimes loaded to increased pressure and with a wider variety of bullet types. This does not mean it cannot be used in a NATO barrel, however. It simply means that these firearms benefit from a wide variety of bullet types, which in turn has led to this caliber’s adoption over much of the known world for both sporting and military applications.

Barnes 130 grain TTSX bullet has a stated muzzle velocity of 3125 feet per second with 2818 foot pounds of energy.
