The Browning Max Point 6.8 Western 170-grain ammunition delivers exceptional long-range performance for big game hunting applications. This premium cartridge combines Browning's proven Max Point bullet technology with the flat-shooting 6.8 Western caliber to extend effective hunting range while maintaining devastating terminal performance.

What Makes This Different

Max Point ammunition features a polymer-tipped bullet design that initiates rapid expansion upon impact while maintaining structural integrity during flight. The 170-grain projectile weight provides optimal sectional density for the 6.8 Western cartridge, delivering superior penetration compared to lighter bullet weights. Factory-loaded cartridges ensure consistent powder charges and precise bullet seating for repeatable accuracy across multiple boxes.

Key Features

  • 170-grain Max Point polymer-tipped bullet for controlled expansion
  • 6.8 Western caliber optimized for long-range hunting performance
  • Premium brass cases with consistent wall thickness
  • Factory-loaded with temperature-stable powder for consistent velocities
  • 20 rounds per box packaging for convenient range sessions
  • Boxer-primed cases suitable for reloading applications
  • Nickel-plated cases resist corrosion in harsh conditions
Field testing demonstrates consistent sub-MOA accuracy potential when fired from quality bolt-action rifles chambered in 6.8 Western. The cartridge maintains effective terminal performance on medium to large game at extended ranges where traditional cartridges lose energy. Weather-resistant case construction and sealed primers ensure reliable ignition in temperature extremes and high-humidity environments.
