Thread: Recovered Amax

Mean. I am running the 168gr A Max in my .308. What sort of impact velocity can I expect them to open up down to? Spitting them out just under 2700fps with 2208 in a 24". Want to chop it to 18" and experiment with 8208 and 2206H

I still had impressive wound channel on nanny Tahr @705y launched at 2750 (I shan't be repeating that in anything other than perfect conditions)

Your range limit with 168s out of 308 is more dictated by wind(the slightest breeze) and abillity to accuratly land the shot than impact velocity.
