Hornady is top notch quality. I was impressed when taking the rounds out of the box on how smooth the brass was. I imagine it will help with feeding and also reduce wear on the chamber. It shot very close groups. I listen to the Hornady podcast and it has a lot of great background.
My only observation (not really a complaint) is that the tips are very fragile plastic. I ejected a round to clear the chamber and it damaged the red tip, so be careful if need to eject a round so you don’t mess it up.
Pros:
High quality
reliabie
close groups
Cons:
delecate front tip
Would recommend: Yes

This is pretty much going to take out whatever you need unless you’re trying to deep penetrate something. Then maybe go full copper. But these are really accurate, reliable and causes a lot of damage.
Pros:
great ammo
Cons:
None
Best Used for:
hunting
Would recommend: Yes

The 168 grain A-MAX round is outstanding for hunting deer. I use it in my Ruger American Go Wild .308 with a Leupold VX 5HD 3-15x56mm scope. The round is devastating on impact…...don’t let people tell you it’s a paper round only. I highly recommend this round for hunting deer.
Would recommend: Yes

My POF Revolution DI 308 with 16.5” barrel absolutely loves the Hornady Black 168 grain ammunition. It has ate any ammunition I have run through it with zero feed issues but anything below 150 grain ammunition is 3 plus MOA. With Hornady Black I can reach out long distance accurately. I have many 25 round Magpul magazines filled with this along with a few precision Hunter 178 grain for coyotes. I also keep at least one 30 caliber container full of the Black and another with the Superformance 150 grain SST. You cannot go wrong with Hornady Ammunition for any rifle or shotgun.
Best Used for:
Target shooting
Would recommend: Yes
