I recently shot some .308 ammo purchased from ammo works.They are distributing ammo everywhere and they are supposed to have the best price in the country. let me just say this ammo was precise, accurate and efficient. It was made by a company in lithuania called GGG and is widely used by both nato and u.s. forces. this is a 146 grain, m80 ball, brass cassed, round. It has a boxer primer, it is reloadable and non corossive. I highly recommend anyone who is interested in .308 ammo to give ammo works a call there located in south florida and there # is 305-672-2479. They will be able to answer any further questions regarding their product. thanks happy shootin'!!!

ralphgun, welcome to G&G. Where are you located? Here in the states, we have many choices when it comes to ammo, depending on where you live, our choices may not be available to you.

I didn't see anything in his post stating he wanted to shoot at people with a gov't-owned firearm. It sounded to me like he was looking for ammo advice for a personally-owned firearm. If I was in that position, I'd want advice as well.
M118 LR is a HP round and it does not violate the Rules of War. In Afghanistan it was not terribly uncommon to see soldiers using 77gr HP 5.56. HP does not violate the rules of war. I would guess that SP or something like that would be a violation though.
BUT, the United States did not sign the above treaty, though the US military has incorporated it as being consistent with Art. 23e of the Annex to the Hague Convention IV which states "To employ arms, projectiles, or material calculated to cause unnecessary suffering;" (is forbidden) and we did sign that treaty.
The problem is, does using HP or SP rounds cause more or less suffering? I would say less, as it is more likely to kill a combatant than to wound, as an FMJ round will usually do a through-and-through unless it's designed to tumble... but who am I to question the military's logic? *snicker*

My question is this. If he have access to PC and internet and he have an M14 wid unherd of match barrel and he fire standard 7.62x51mm ball (NALC A130) why his grups so bod? BS if he has 7.62 NATO standard ball ammunition his "grups" is just fine. This sounds like a phishing expedition to me.
