Any experience with this brand and/or comments? Looking at their .308 Extrema rifle ammo with either GKBT or SST bullet. Thanks.

I shoot some of their shotgun sheels occasionally...with no problems, but my buddy in Ca. bought a new 28 ga l/w Berretta for about $1800...the Auto..went to Argentina on a hunt and it jammed every 5th bullet..DD

I have used their shotgun shells and liked them very much. Shot them through a Beretta auto and never had a problem. Killed a lot of doves with them.
Bartender, bring me anything except brake fluid, cause I don't plan on stopping!

After my orignal post, I remembered putting some of their ammo thru my .223 a year or so ago, and it performed very well. Later, during cleaning, I thought the barrel was a bit dirty, but I had put several different loads downrange since the last cleaning, so maybe not.
I'm gonna give them a try in my .308 and see what they do. Thanks for the comments.

I have shot several rounds in my 223. With the 77 grain bullet, 3 shots will be touching each other @ 100 yds if I do my part. Makes a good hog round if you put it their ear.
