My lot number of this product has been in continuous use since 1992 with no change in performance. I'm a very proficient handloader and it took years to MATCH this stuff...after I sorted it by bullet runout the group size shrank to where I don't even bother to try to match it with handloads. At present I use a Bersin tool to reduce runout to the minimum possible and a Tubb meplat uniformer to uniform bullet tips and can expect 1/2 MOA 5-10 shot groups up to 200 yards consistency from a 700PSS. If you're not a handloader, this is your target round...if you are, you can take the day off, safe in the hands of Federal ATK. Great product, great company.

Wow! This is some kind of great ammo. If you're looking for super accurate .308 ammo and aren't inclined to load your own, this is it. Very consistent and accurate.

This is THE best .308 ammo for long range shooting out there. I've tried several different brands and I always come back to the Federal. At 600 yards, I get between 3 and 7" groups. I'm sure a better shooter would improve on that. With outer ammo, the groups opened up to twice the size. I use a 26" barrel Ruger K77VT. If you don't reload, this is your target round. Any round can shoot at 100 yards. But this one performs for me at 6 times that range. At 200 yards, I can have the bullet holes touching.

This ammo produces the most consistent, tighest groups out of my Savage .308 with a 24" Hart match barrel/chamber. 3- shot groups average .5 moa at 100, 200 and 300 yards. It is capable of better with a better shooter behind the trigger. Expensive but you get what you pay for.

Shot a 1/4 group @ 100 yards with my HS HTR. Best accuracy you can get out of production ammo. Use the 175gr if shooting past 300-400 yards.

Sniper training in Ohio I shot roughly 500 rounds. It consistently shot dime size groups at 100 yds with three shot groups. (Remington 700 lt 20" fluted ) in addition it shot 2" groups at 300 yds. Great stuff!!!!!!!

Fantastic product. I used these with my Ruger 77 VT, 26 inch heavy barrel. All of my 3 shot groups at 100 yards were either touching or looking like 2 shot groups. This load set a standard that I hope all my handloads measure up to. I would recommend this product to anyone.

Shot this ammo for the first time out of my H-S Precision HTR. It gave the best group I had ever fired at 100 yds. measuring .396 for 3 shots

The first time out (after sighting in) I shot a .342 inch group (3 shots) out of an F.N. SPR with a Leupold M-1 scope at 110 yards. I did have a VERY solid rest but the ammunition certainly did its part. I have not had a chance to shoot at a longer range as of yet) I do not reload so this consistancy is a great value to me. I also purchased some competing match ammo locally to compare, even though I ordered only 3 boxes from Midway the lot numbers were the same, the local retailers supply was not. I would recommend a case purchase if able to do so simply for consistancys sake.

I normally shoot my own handloads through my 308 tactical rifle but this stuff is amazing. I bought a case of this stuff and after shooting it I also reload the brass. This is the best for the 308 period!

I shot this ammo from a Springfield M1A at 100yards,with unbelievable results, several shot groups at .49(4rounds) the shot group fit into a dime. (NO OPTICS), Federal, WELL DONE, will buy again and spread the word.

Quite simply the best production ammunition I have ever used. Inspection out of the box reveals a very nice finish and quality assembly. Performance at the range is outstanding; 5 shot groups out of my Savage 10FCP-LE HS are very literally one ragged hole.

My Remington 700 SPS Varmint has a very long throat. The only way to get 0.5 MOA (or better) accuracy is to seat bullets within 0.030 of the lands. I got 20 rounds of GMM and really didn't expect much in the way of accuracy. I was totally shocked when it shot just as well as my best handloads! I don't know how Federal does it but this is the best factory ammunition I've ever tried! Looks like I'll have to give the Sierra Matchkings a try next...

Using out of an M1A1 with Horus H-25 3x12x50 optics. Tried a lot of different loads and this runs a 3/4" MOA and is absolutely a ray gun on coyotes called with an electronic game call. Explosive knockdown. Really good stuff. Highly recommend.

I shoot this ammo out of my Remington 700 SPS tactical 20 inch bull barrel. Great grouping at a hundred yards. Shot a hog in the head with one at close range and he didn’t take a step, but anything at that range could of done that. Became truly impressed when I shot a buck at 60 yds, he buckled hard and ran a pretty good ways but all downhill. Once found he had a softball size hole were the bullet exited. Good ammo plan on continuing to use.

One of the finest factory loads I've ever used. Hole-in-hole group at 100 yd. with my custom Mauser. Last kill was a 350# black bear at 200+ yd. Bear went 4 steps and piled up. No need to work up handloads with this on the market!

I used this Ammo in my USMC M40A3, 1:12 twist with a 24" Schneider barrel in .308, and it is absolutely the best factory match ammo I have ever shot. After sighting in which only took 3 shoots with this ammo, I shot 3 groups with my worst being .45" and my best being .23". Group average was .34". Bottom line this is the best factory ammo out there. For going past 300 yards, the 175gr. steadily outpaces it...

This is the best factory .308 ammo around. Period. Shoots unbelievably well out of a variety of rifle platforms. My DSA SA58 FAL loves it, as does my PTR 91. And for good measure, it goes sub-MOA at 100 yds. out of my Kimber Longmaster. Just a totally consistent, extremely accurate load.

The best ammo I have shot, 1000 yards all day, with a spotter. Anything in between is child’s play. Worth every penny and Midway makes it possible with good pricing.

I purchased the 168gr FGMM for a class I had in August. In my Remington 700P, they performed very well (sub MOA) out to 500 yds. At 1000 I was hitting 12" x 12" steel gongs, but not consistently enough for my satisfaction. I like and continue to buy the 168gr FGMM for shorter range shooting.
