The 168 BTHP and 168 A-max "Bulk" is the best ammo for the best price you will find.

I checked him out no doubt it's good stuff. I should have said, looking for some decent bulk 308 to go through that's not gonna leave me broke. I'm just learning long distance shooting and wanted to get real familiar with the rifle before I shelled out a lot for quality ammo.

That's what is so good about chads ammo you get high quality and its cheap. his bulk match was $83 a hundred even cheap core lok isn't that cheap per hundred rounds.

Buy some PRVI Partizan match ammo. Shoots well enough and can usually be found for $20/box or less. Or just buy the cheap PRVI ammo which can be had for $15 or less per box or in bulk. I think Cabelas has a 500rd can of it for $389.

I don't quite believe in the idea of break in ammo.

Regardless, I shot the first 300 rounds of my newly barreled 308 of Chad's amax and it performed very well and was very affordable. trying to get into reloading now but would have no problem going back to his 168 amax. Trust me, you'll get better results than "break in ammo" comparable to regular corelokt.

I mean if your just looking to shoot anything I believe Academy has 145gr. for $10 per 20 for Monarch.

but not sure if your looking for components to reload or just anything.

I shot 20 rounds out of 100 out of my bolt action 300 blackout from chad and got 5 Ftf. So it's not all roses
