The Hornady Match 30715 delivers match-grade accuracy for precision shooting applications with its 178-grain hollow point boat tail design. These .308 caliber bullets feature Hornady's Advanced Manufacturing Process (AMP) bullet jackets that ensure consistent wall thickness and optimal concentricity for superior ballistic performance.
What Makes This Different
Hornady Match bullets utilize AMP jacket technology that produces walls with virtually zero thickness variation, resulting in enhanced accuracy compared to standard hunting bullets. The 178-grain weight provides excellent ballistic coefficient and wind resistance for long-range shooting. The hollow point boat tail configuration optimizes aerodynamic efficiency while maintaining structural integrity at high velocities.
Key Features
- 178-grain hollow point boat tail design for maximum accuracy
- AMP jacket technology ensures consistent wall thickness
- Swaged lead core provides uniform density distribution
- Optimized for .308 Winchester and .30-06 Springfield cartridges
- Diameter: .308 inches with tight tolerance specifications
- High ballistic coefficient for flat trajectory performance
- Match-grade quality control standards throughout production
These bullets excel in competitive shooting environments where precision matters most. The 178-grain weight stabilizes effectively in standard 1:10 twist barrels while delivering consistent performance at extended ranges. Match shooters rely on the predictable flight characteristics and minimal velocity variation shot-to-shot.
