Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Nosler Custom Competition ammunition different from standard 308 Win loads?
Nosler Custom Competition ammunition is built to match-grade tolerances that far exceed those of standard factory loads. Each piece of brass is individually inspected, neck-sized, chamfered, and trued, and flash holes are checked for proper alignment. Powder charges are hand-weighed for minimal shot-to-shot variance, and finished rounds are visually inspected and polished. The result is a level of consistency that translates directly into tighter groups at distance — something standard hunting or range ammunition simply cannot guarantee.
Is this ammunition suitable for semi-automatic rifles like the AR-10 or DPMS pattern 308?
Yes, the Nosler Custom Competition 168-grain 308 Win load functions reliably in semi-automatic platforms chambered in .308 Winchester or 7.62x51mm NATO, including AR-10 and DPMS-pattern rifles. The 2,750 fps muzzle velocity provides sufficient energy for reliable cycling in most gas-operated systems. Always verify your specific rifle's chamber specifications and confirm it is rated for .308 Winchester commercial ammunition before use.
How should I store this ammunition to preserve its performance?
Store Nosler Custom Competition ammunition in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight, extreme heat, and humidity. Keep rounds in their original box or an airtight container to prevent moisture exposure. Properly stored centerfire ammunition can maintain its performance characteristics for many years. Avoid storing ammunition near solvents, lubricants, or chemicals that could degrade the brass or primer compound over time.
