Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the 175-grain OTM bullet ideal for long-range .308 shooting?
The 175-grain Sierra MatchKing-style Open Tip Match (OTM) projectile offers an excellent balance of ballistic coefficient and stability, making it effective well beyond 800 yards from a standard .308 Win / 7.62x51 NATO barrel. Its high BC resists wind drift and retains velocity more efficiently than lighter .308 loads, which is why it has become the benchmark bullet weight for precision .308 competition and military applications.
Is this ammunition compatible with semi-automatic rifles chambered in .308 Winchester?
Yes. Federal Gold Medal .308 Win 175gr OTM is compatible with any rifle chambered in .308 Winchester, including semi-automatic platforms such as the SR-25, DPMS, and similar AR-10-pattern rifles, as well as bolt-action rifles. Always verify your specific barrel's twist rate — a 1:10" or 1:11.25" twist is recommended to properly stabilize a 175-grain projectile for optimal accuracy.
Can the brass casings be reloaded after firing?
Absolutely. Federal brass is renowned among hand-loaders for its consistent wall thickness, weight uniformity, and durability. Once-fired Gold Medal brass is highly sought after in the reloading community. After firing, inspect the cases for signs of wear, resize, reprime with a quality match primer, and reload to your preferred spec — many precision shooters get multiple reloads from Federal Gold Medal brass.
