This 308 Win ammunition was originally made for the German military by Chemnitzer Sportwaffen und Munitionsfabrik GmbH, but has been repackaged for international commercial sale. These cartridges sport 148 grain full metal jacket projectiles, which are a lighter weight for their caliber. They take their distinctive color from the cupronickel that their jackets are made of, and they are magnetic because of the iron said alloy is strengthened with. These rounds’ low price tag and ability to prevent rapid bore fouling make them an exceptional choice for high volume shooting.

These rounds offer brass casings, although they’re not a great medium for handloading given their Berdan primers. Still, that the primers fitted into these likely 90s-era milsurp rounds’ casings are non-corrosive means that you can confidently invest in them. Note that the headstamps on these cartridges have been machined out, but the printing on their casings clearly indicates their caliber for convenient identification.

Q: Will Springfield m1a cycle this ammo.

Posted On: 9/19/2019 By: Sam Cheshire

A: While the .308 will chamber in the M1A, it typically has a higher pressure than the 7.62x51 NATO cartridge that the M1A is chambered in. This can cause more wear and maintenance on your firearm.

Q: are these bullets brass or steel or some bimetal? From the picture they look like steel/silver. Do steel bullets wear down the bore more quickly?

Posted On: 5/10/2019 By: nathan petersen

A: Hi Nathan. These projectiles are bimetallic and will attract a magnet, so make sure you can use them on your range! The steel used in the jacket is so thin and so soft that it cannot possibly damage the bore of your rifle.

Q: Are the primers in these corrosive or non-corrosive?

Posted On: 4/4/2019 By: Jason

A: Hi Jason almost all European surplus ammo uses Berdan primers for reliability. Unfortunately the primers range from corrosive to mildly corrosive. There should not be any issues provided you clean your rifle immediately after firing.
