Rifles Descriptions

308 - 165 Grain PSP - Fiocchi - 20 Rounds

Let the naysayers denigrate the 308 Winchester until they turn blue in the face. The trophies on your wall and the meat in your freezer say all that needs to be said about the 308 Win. Fiocchi loads their Field Dynamics 308 hunting ammo right here in America, so you can go ape on deer all you like and still support your countrymen. This cartridge has a 165 grain pointed soft point bullet, with a sharp meplat that streamlines its overall profile and promotes greater accuracy. The aerodynamic bullet’s 0.435 G1 ballistic coefficient means that it retains at least 1,000 ft lbs of energy until 575 yards, and remains supersonic until 1,015 yards. The soft point bullet is the more affordable approach to hunting medium sized game, as it relies only on its exposed core to let loose rapid terminal expansion instead of a polymer tip. Like the 308 itself, the soft point has stayed popular for so many decades simply because it works! Fiocchi’s Missourian factory loads brand new brass cases, as well as the non-corrosive Boxer primers and heavily standardized charges of clean-burning powder their bullets need to achieve consistent results. This ammo is reloadable – don’t forget to save your brass after you’ve bagged your buck!

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
