.308

Why 7.62 NATO Is This Navy SEAL Sniper’s Favorite Round and Should Be Yours Too

Ok, before we kick the hornets’ nest of the great guns and ammo debate allow me to just put the debate to rest with the next sentence. 7.62 NATO (or .308 in “Merica”) is a cheap and widely available rifle round. This should be enough to end the debate for most but for those die-hard […]

Sub-Minute of Angle .308 AR for Under a Grand? Diamondback Firearms

Sub-Minute of Angle .308 AR for Under a Grand? Diamondback Firearms

Diamondback Firearms’ DB-10 proves excellent in testing and has an price way below the competition.  The group pictured was shot by Erika and consists of five, not three, rounds of Federal Match .308 from 100 yards. Everyone has an AR-15 or three, and so now we look for something different.  The AR-10 is nothing new, […]

is 6.5 creedmoor better than .308

Is 6.5 Creedmoor Really Better Than .308?

If anyone tries to tell you that the old battle horse known as .308 Winchester (alternatively, 7.62×51 NATO) is washed up, you’ll know right away they’re either drinking the kool-aid or are drastically ill-informed as to hunting and war history.  The effectiveness of the .308 has been shown for many decades in deserts, rice paddies […]

Ultradyne Announces Apollo Max Muzzle Brake Now Available in 30 Caliber

.308 WIN is the classic mid-range thumper cousin of the round used in service rifles around the world and well respected for the energy it can deliver.  Ultradyne, an American designer and manufacturer of advanced shooting accessories, has officially released its Apollo Max muzzle brake specifically tuned for .308 WIN and compatible with related 30 Caliber […]

DoubleStar10B Bat Rifle: Graham Baates Video

DoubleStar10B Bat Rifle: Graham Baates Video

DoubleStar has been stealthily crafting some incredible rifles.  Their Midnight Dragon not only looks cool, but has given us the best ten-shot grouping we’ve ever accomplished when mixed with Nosler ammunition.  Aside from accuracy and build quality, part of what sets DoubleStar rifles apart is aesthetics. Looks may not be the officially important, but I […]

Sig Elite Performance .308 Ammunition: Good as Its Name

Sig Elite Performance .308 Ammunition: Good as Its Name

“Elite Performance Ammunition” is a presumptuous name.  How does it perform? Sig Sauer’s 168gr .308 ammunition is competitively priced and performs well.  With a couple boxes for testing we recently had the chance to run it through our 26″ Marlin X7VH. The X7VH has a preference for 168gr so we knew it would be a match. […]

First Look: Spike’s Tactical Roadhouse .308 AR-10

First Look: Spike’s Tactical Roadhouse .308 AR-10

Spike’s Tactical has a well-established name for making some of the coolest rifles out there.  From fun lowers to high-performance dream rifles they’re all available at Spike’s.  In our recent series of AR-10 rifles we came upon the Roadhouse in .308. Built like Schwarzennager should wield it, the Roadhouse is beefy.  Of course everything is […]

Shots Fired: Smith & Wesson M&P 10 Sport and Nikon BLACK Scope

Not long ago we gave you a tabletop look at Smith & Wesson’s M&P 10 Sport.  If you missed it, go back and see the report by following the link.  I didn’t have much experience with rifles from Smith & Wesson and wondered if the rifle would be of any real quality, or just another […]

G2 Research is known for finding new ways to make ammo wicked.  Most known for their R.I.P. line, they also produce loads for rifles.  Defensive and specialty handgun loads easily number in the hundreds.  But what about rifles? Aside from bonded bullets, and meat-destroying fracturing loads hunters aren’t left with many options.  G2 Research has […]
