Hornady .308 155gr BTHP Match Reloading Bullets
Precision reloading bullets designed for competitive target shooting and serious reloaders seeking consistent performance. Part of the Hornady Match line, these 155 grain Boat Tail Hollow Point bullets feature the Advanced Manufacturing Process (AMP) jacket with virtually zero runout and near-zero wall thickness variation.
The secant ogive profile reduces drag and improves trajectory flatness compared to a tangent ogive, offering optimal bearing surface for stable flight. A precision swaged lead core ensures uniformity and balance. The boattail design is specifically optimized for the .308 caliber to enhance aerodynamic efficiency and consistency.
