Current generation defensive 9x19 ammo bullet weights run 124-147 grains. There are some boutique loads that are lighter, but they're outside the mainstream. Older generations of 9x19 defensive ammo included 90-115 grain bullets, but current technology gives expansion with the deeper penetration provided by the additional weight.
What's the current "best deal" for decent, milspec (either actual military, or the functional equivalent) 7.62 NATO ammo? Bonus points awarded if it is reloadable. I've been looking around, and came up with the .308 page at Ammoman.com ... Questions: 1. Is the argentine 7.62 any good...
Hi guys I am looking at buying a Ishapore 7.62mm X51 rifle. i have read that using the NATO ammo in a .308 is okay, but not the other way around! Apparently the average head space in the NATO chamber is .013" longer than in a 308, and the potential for case separation at the head exists! So I...
Feb 9, 2016. #14. Toprudder, my Savage model 10 in 7.62x39 also has a .308 barrel and it shoots the .310 steel-cased stuff like a champ. Sub-MOA with steel-case .310 Hornady 123-grain SST's in fact. I figured I'd be loading .308 bullets for it until I shot some .310's.

Sep 24, 2017. #1. I'm planning the build for my son for an AR-15 and want to make sure in choosing a barrel, the match grade ammo available to us from local Turners store is covered as to twist rate. Ammo is: Federal 5.56 77gr. Federal Gold .223 77 gr. Federal Gold .223 69 gr. Am thinking I should get a Wylde chamber and twist of 1 in 8 or 1 in 7.
Early in March 2016 I built my Ultralite AR 308 using 2A Xanthos receiver set and are-profiled X-Caliber 16” 308 barrel. Upper weighed 58.2 ounces and lower 18.70ounces for a total weight of 77 ounces or 4.8 pounds. That is 5 ounces morethan my stated goal of 72 ounces or 4.5 pounds.
