Rifles Descriptions
308 - 150 Grain FMJ - Red Army Standard - 500 Rounds
Just to be sure, this 308 Win ammo was not made for the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army by the Soviet Union and then stored in a rickety warehouse for several decades. “Red Army Standard” ammo is made in Russia – very recently, and with non-corrosive Berdan primers that won’t blast the inside of your rifle with caustic residues. This 308 ammo is a budget-friendly choice for target shooting because it contains so much steel, which is a much cheaper metal than the copper that is usually used to make bullet jackets and cases. This round’s 150 grain bullet possesses a deformation-resistant bimetal jacket. It’s copper-washed on the exterior and has a lead core, but the steel which comprises the majority of a bimetal jacket does indeed make this bullet magnetic. Steel cases drive this ammo’s price tag even lower. They are designed to cycle efficiently through any kind of rifle, and they are also coated with low-friction and corrosion-resistant polymer. Steel’s main shortcoming? It doesn’t have the ability to contract back to its original dimensions following ignition, which makes reloading a steel case so difficult that it’s usually best not to bother trying!
Bushmaster Gas Piston 90294
The Bushmaster Gas Piston System Rifles bring new levels of reliability to the “AR” type rifle platform by eliminating carbon build up, gas leaks and heat within the Upper Receiver. The Gas Piston System operates by tapping gas pressure off the barrel much like the systems found on AK-47s and FALs * Functions with a wider range of ammunition - less gas pressure - lower cyclic rate * Offers improved reliability and control - with cleaner operation and reduced recoil * Keeps carbon build up and powder residue from reaching - and fouling the Upper Receiver and Bolt Carrier * A Detented Plug in the Gas Block allows easy cleaning of the Systems’ Hard Chrome Plated Piston
