The Mexican company Aguila Ammunition is known as a manufacturer of quality ammunition for various purposes. In this case, it's about high-quality .308 Winchester caliber rifle cartridges, which are popular in various situations.
The .308 Win caliber cartridges are generally popular for various applications – it's a popular rifle caliber for both hunting and sports shooting, as well as for service purposes for members of the military and police, or also for personal defense.
This is a perfect cartridge especially for target shooting and tactical operations, as its development and production primarily focused on high accuracy. The cartridge case features a centerfire primer and the bullet has a so-called boat tail, meaning it tapers towards the base.
FMJ in the name of the cartridge stands for Full Metal Jacket, which translates to "full metal jacket," which is probably a more accurate description in this case. The overall composition of the cartridge is quite minimalist, which is only to its advantage. Beyond the jacket, it contains only a 150-grain bullet, smokeless powder, and primer.
Also worth mentioning is the anti-corrosion treatment of the primer, which ensures reliable ignition in any weather conditions. Aguila calls this patented technology Non-Corr Priming.
