The Federal AE308D American Eagle delivers reliable performance for high-volume shooting at an economical price point. This 308 Winchester ammunition features 150-grain full metal jacket boat tail bullets designed for consistent accuracy and reduced barrel fouling during extended range sessions.
What Makes This Different

The full metal jacket boat tail design provides superior ballistic coefficient compared to flat-base bullets, maintaining velocity and reducing wind drift at extended ranges. Each cartridge utilizes Federal's reliable brass cases and non-corrosive primers for consistent ignition across temperature extremes.
