Key Features
Projectile Design: 150gr InterLock Boat Tail Soft Point
This load utilizes a 150-grain projectile, a proven weight for the .308 Winchester, balancing velocity and energy retention. The InterLock design features an internal ring that mechanically secures the core to the jacket, mitigating core-jacket separation upon impact. This construction promotes controlled expansion and optimized weight retention, crucial for effective energy transfer in hunting scenarios. The boat tail configuration is integrated to enhance the ballistic coefficient, stabilizing the projectile during flight and maintaining velocity over extended ranges. A soft point nose initiates expansion reliably, contributing to the projectile’s terminal performance.
Ammunition Consistency and Reliability
Aguila’s manufacturing processes are applied to ensure lot-to-lot consistency in the 8090AG series. Each cartridge is assembled with high-quality components, including non-corrosive boxer primers and precisely metered propellants, contributing to consistent muzzle velocities and minimal extreme spreads. The brass casings are engineered for reliable feeding, extraction, and are reloadable, extending utility for experienced handloaders.
Application and Performance
Optimized for a balance of precision and terminal effect, the Aguila 8090AG ammunition is suitable for general-purpose rifle use, target engagement, and medium game hunting. The .308 Winchester cartridge itself is recognized for its inherent accuracy and versatility, and this specific load is formulated to leverage those characteristics, providing a dependable option for discerning shooters.
