Description
.308 Winchester / 7.62x51mm M62 Tracer Range Grade Ammunition
This ammunition is manufactured in the USA by FedArm using Lake City manufactured .308 diameter (308 or 30-06) 147 grain pull down military M62 tracer projectiles with bright orange tips. Bullets may actually weight 144 grains, but are labeled as 147 gr. due to similar ballistic performance.
Only once-fired military brass is used in loading. This brass is acid washed, processed and trimmed to SAAMI specifications, and electromagnetically inspected for thin walls and defects to ensure safe internal tolerances.
In the loading process, FedArm uses only the top quality US made SMP 846T powder and CCI or FSAAP primers. Powder is dropped to a exceedingly tight tolerance to ensure the highest accuracy.
Note: This ammunition is labeled as Tracer and in our testing the tracer element lighted 100% of the time in testing with the M60 machine gun and M110 Sniper Rifle, both with very long barrels. Since this is range grade and not FedArm brand ammo, you should buy this ammo assuming the tracers may or may not light all the time in your specific gun (i.e. with shorter barrels), but nonetheless will shoot great/accurately.
Velocity/ Pressure: 2725 FPS (SAAMI and Mil-Spec pressure)
What is “Range Grade Ammo”? This ammunition is visually inspected in bulk and packaged by weight. It differs from “FedArm” brand ammo in that it is not case gauged nor individually inspected by piece. A very small count of these rounds may deviate slightly from typical mil-spec specifications and may (or may not) contain slightly off-seated projectile or similar minor functional defects, all easily caught when loading your magazine. The inspection labor savings on these rounds is passed onto you! You will receive more rounds than ordered (as per the below) for the chance you find an unsatisfactory round.
Note: Range grade ammunition does not fall under the FedArm satisfaction guarantee & return policy. If you want piece counted mil-spec ammo, please buy the standard “FedArm” branded ammo instead.
This ammunition is available in:
- 500 rounds within a heavy duty shipper box. Weight count over-packing will put approximate received quantity of (503 to 509 rounds total).
