The Winchester WB762M147X delivers consistent performance in 7.62x51mm NATO chambered rifles with 147-grain full metal jacket boat tail projectiles. This centerfire rifle ammunition provides reliable feeding and extraction across military-specification platforms and precision shooting applications.
What Makes This Different
Winchester's 147-grain FMJ-BT design optimizes ballistic coefficient for extended range performance compared to standard round nose configurations. The boat tail profile reduces drag and maintains velocity downrange, while the full metal jacket construction ensures consistent expansion characteristics. Military contractors and competitive shooters select this load for its adherence to NATO specifications and batch-to-batch consistency.
Key Features
- 147-grain full metal jacket boat tail projectile for superior ballistic performance
- 7.62x51mm NATO specification ensures compatibility with military and civilian rifles
- Boxer-primed brass cases enable reliable ignition and reloading capability
- 100-round bulk packaging reduces cost per round for high-volume shooting
- Non-corrosive powder and primers prevent barrel damage during storage
- Consistent powder charges maintain shot-to-shot velocity uniformity
- Factory-fresh brass cases sized to SAAMI specifications
Match-grade accuracy standards make this ammunition suitable for precision rifle competitions, military training exercises, and long-range target shooting. The 147-grain bullet weight stabilizes effectively in standard 1:12 twist barrels while generating sufficient energy for 800-yard engagements. Reliable feeding occurs in semi-automatic platforms including AR-10 variants, M1A rifles, and bolt-action precision systems.
