Hornady Custom Lite 308 Win 125gr SST Ammunition - 20 Rounds

The Hornady Custom Lite 308 Winchester 125-grain Super Shock Tip ammunition delivers full-power performance with significantly reduced felt recoil. This specialized load uses Hornady's proven SST bullet technology while generating approximately 25% less recoil than standard 308 Winchester cartridges, making it ideal for recoil-sensitive shooters and extended range sessions.

What Makes This Different

Custom Lite ammunition achieves reduced recoil through optimized powder charges and lighter bullet weights without sacrificing terminal performance. The 125-grain Super Shock Tip bullet maintains devastating expansion and deep penetration on medium game, while the reduced powder charge generates less muzzle blast and felt recoil. This combination allows shooters to maintain accuracy during longer shooting sessions and provides a more comfortable experience for hunters sensitive to heavy recoil.

Key Features

• 125-grain Super Shock Tip (SST) bullet with polymer tip for rapid expansion
