[G29 Man]

I am looking into buying a case of this ammo and wanted to know if anyone has any info regarding accuracy in bolt action 308s? I shoot a Savage 10FP.


Thanks!

I can't speak for bolt guns, but using the Portugese surp stuff, my M1A holds groups to the size of a half dollar at 100 yards, shooting with iron sights and offhand.

went throuhg 300rds with my 10FP (.308, Choate stock, bipod and Sightron 6-24x42 scope w/o breaking in the barrel) last weekend, i was getting 3rds touching at 100yrds. also hitting a 3" steel spinner at about 200yds.

I was very pleased with the Port. .308 I tried for the first time just a few days back. It was just as accurate as the good South African .308 I was using until my local shop sold out of it. That's when I decided to try the Portueguese. I like it and I'll use it from now. It was very accurate out of my Ruger M77 International. Hit everything I was aiming at at 100 yards.

I've shot thousands of rounds of this stuff through my M1A and my FAL. It is quite accurate for milsurp. (1.5" for the M1A and 2" for the FAL) I have never had an ammo related failure with it.

It is a copper gilded steel jacket if that bothers you.

It's not match ammo, but it's pretty good stuff. It would be great to use for honing your techniques and positions.

Is it Berdan or Boxer primed?

I shoot a lot of Portugese (FNM) through my CETME. It gives 2MOA with the iron sights.

In my Rem 700, it ranges from sub-MOA (1.7" at 200 yards) to 1.5 MOA. At that point, though, you are probably measuring my (lack of) shooting skill, and not the ammo's performance.
