7.62x51 - 149 Grain FMJ M80 - Winchester - 20 Rounds

Did you hop on the internet in search of 308 Win ammo? Don’t be led astray by such totally different numbers! 7.62x51 ammo is perfectly compatible with rifles chambered for 308. It’s loaded to generate a slightly lower chamber pressure, but it’s still going to cycle a semi-auto and treat any other type of rifle just as nicely. This is Winchester’s own M80 ammo, the military’s go-to stuff for range and sniper training. Its bullet is actually a couple grains heavier than the standard 147 grains, but with its muzzle velocity of 2,790 fps you won’t experience any discernible difference in ballistic performance. The M80 bullet is a true full metal jacket, with a lead core and concentric copper alloy jacket that aren’t fashioned to expand inside game. There are hundreds of better options available for hunting. There are better 7.62x51 rounds for personal protection as well, but please don’t rule this ammo out for home defense. It’s 7.62x51 – it really doesn’t do human-sized threats any favors. This isn’t old military surplus. It’s non-corrosive new production ammo, gentle on a rifle’s chamber and bore before it becomes reloadable. Please be sure that this isn’t the 7.62x39 ammo you’d want for an AK-47.

45 ACP - 230 Grain TMJ - Speer LAWMAN - 50 Rounds

Speer® brought sport shooters and law enforcement the excellence of Lawman over 35 years ago. Back in 1968, the line included various calibers of centerfire handgun ammunition, and quickly earned a reputation as a high-performance and reliable product. Lawman is attractively priced, and the cases are reloadable with clean-burning propellants and reliable CCI primers to complete the package. Total metal jacket (TMJ) is different from full metal jacket (FMJ) due to TMJ bullets having no exposed lead bases, this makes TMJ bullets better suited for firing in indoor ranges since there will be fewer lead particulates floating in the air after firing .
