Berger’s 300 Winchester Magnum 168 Grain Classic Hunter rifle ammunition is a modern twist on a classic hunting round. The 300 Winchester Magnum has been a long range favorite for years and continues to be a staple cartridge for hunting game of all sizes. The magnum stopping power of this cartridge allows effective long range shots at the cost of slightly more recoil than non-magnum 30 caliber cartridges.
The 30 Caliber 168 Grain Classic Hunter Rifle Bullet is where the magic of this round comes from. This Rifle Bullet features a specialty hybrid shape which was designed to maximize Rifle Bullet BC while keeping the Rifle Bullet relatively short in comparison to other hybrid Rifle Bullets, which allows it to feed through magazine fed rifles effectively. This gives you the highest performing Rifle Bullet in its weight class that can shoot out of standard factory hunting rifle with a magazine. Many customers have also reported great success shooting this round out of semi-auto platforms such as AR style hunting rifles. The 168 grain Rifle Bullet might have a slightly lower ballistic coefficient and stopping power, but it makes it up in a higher velocity compared to its 185 grain counterpart.
We load this round with a premium 300 Winchester Magnum case, a temperature stable powder, and a match grade primer to ensure that the round will perform exactly as expected in varied temperatures and altitudes. If you have a factory 300 Winchester Magnum rifle that uses a magazine, this is an ideal round for hunting small to large game.
