i ended up buying this from the reviews and i got to say it shoots wonders for my sig 716 patrol. so far went through over 200 rounds in one day and no problems. i always clean my gun after and it didnt even seem to leave much behind. cant wait till it restocks because its one the best bang for your buck for target pratice.

Unfortunately my Savage Axis had trouble with the ammo- no fault of the ammo- the firing pin had trouble with the military primer
Folks in customer service immediately determined the cause and provided me with return
Will buy from them again (Posted on 11/23/16)

Shot only 25 rds from a Remington 700 and made a happy face on the target. It's accurate ammo and very clean. Good buy and Bulk ammo, great company. (Posted on 4/13/16)
Not worth the trouble IMHO very disatisfied with this.

Orderes a pack of 240 rounds fired the first 20 rounds with 2 serious jams and several very difficult exrtractions. cleaned at and tried again with same results I fired a total of 60 rounds with 12 jams and 19 seriously deformed brass. I switched to American Eagle and not a single jam or difficult extraction. My Ruger Scout just does not like this ammo. I will be giving these away (Posted on 4/13/16)

Good ammo. Shooting out of a dsa sa58. Tight groopings. Only feed problem was because of gas setting and surplus mag. Out of a good mag no feeding issues no misfires. Will most definitely be buying again. (Posted on 3/27/16)

I gave this ammo 5 stars because it works well and its cheaper than competitor ammo "BUT" if you plan on reloading this ammo forget it!!.
instead of a single flash hole in the center it has 2 "small" flash holes on the sides of the primer pocket, you cant decap these rounds.
so shoot it n leave it on the ground at the range.

Shoot 500 rds through a Rem700, with and without silencer.
855yards was a 70% consistent hit on a 2 ft plate. Not bad for surplus ammo. Since it's light, it doesn't do too well with medium wind. but would buy it again (Posted on 3/8/16)

Just shot about 100 rds thru my National Match M1A and have to say that this is definitely reliable ammo...fun to shoot with no problems... However...like so many things in life, you get what you pay for.. this ammo is NOT very accurate... My M1 has been zeroed with 175gr Gold Metal Match thru a Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x50, and although his is 146gr, it is all over the place... Like I said..no real complaints here...it's reliable and not dirty... Fun for your kids or friends or girlfriends to shoot... Just don't hunt or compete with this stuff.. (Posted on 3/3/16)

WOW. I wish I had the money to buy another 960 rounds. Best bulk .308 I've ever shot. Reliable and super accurate. Shot 60 rounds out of my ruger scout and it looked like I shot maybe 10 rounds out of it because it's super clean. I'm going to start reloading .308 and I Wish I knew what kind of powder they use.

Never had a FTF and never had any issues with unburnt powder left over inside the rifle. It fired every time and it was very easy to clean afterwards. Comparing it to ammo from say PMC, it doesnt leave a bunch of gunk inside your rifle and residue everywhere. Sure the brass looks slightly aged compared to PMC, but the packaging and quality is amazing. Each case is sealed in a plastic bag and even has a carrying handle. You cant go wrong with this ammo!

Bought this and some others for an affordable shtf AR with a 16 inch barrel. Nice groups at 100 and 200 yards so accuracy is good and all the rounds went bang. Going to order some more before they disappear. (Posted on 2/3/16)

I never used Hirtenberger before and was skeptical on buying 960 rounds but it paid off very well. My AR-10 is custom built using JP Ent. Silent Capture Sring Kit, JP BCG, adjustable gas block, and barrel is a Rhino .308 18". No miss fires, no feeding issues and just no problems at all. Ammo is clean and packaged very well. All shots fired where accurate and again with no problems at all. I will surely purchase them again and from Bulkammo. Thank you! - Thrasher Tactical (Posted on 12/30/15)

Have now run about 800 rounds through Springfield M1A (socom), with no trouble. Some have said its a little dirty, but I didn't see that yet. Packaged nicely for storage. Have found accuracy is not an issue - It hits where I aim...and I am shooting iron sights. Need to work some OT so I can order more soon. (Posted on 11/28/15)

I used Hirtenbeger .308 ammo extensively in the 90's when it and British RadGreen dominated the surplus market It is clean, very accurate and I never had a FTF when using it.
I ordered this ammo on a non business day and it was delivered
two business days later; great service. Pricing and shipping from Bulkammo was less than other on-line competitors and believe me I did a lot of research before ordering. The ammo I received was head stamped 08, clean and professionally packaged.

My first bolt action rifle was a Weatherby Super Varmint Master I purchased in the early 90's. Hertinberger surplus was prevalent everywhere and that is what I took to the range with me. I soon discovered that, with the aid of a Leupold 6-18x40 scope, off the bench, I could take out the target patches that come with Shoot & See targets (half inch circle) at 120 yards. Due to range limitations I never had the opportunity to take it out further. Consistent, accurate, and reliable and hard to beat at the price being offered. Getting ready to order because I haven't seen this ammo offered for over 15 years. (Posted on 9/6/15)

Q: are these cases Brass, copper washed steel or steel lacquered cases
Posted On: 8/7/17 By: Tony
A: Hello Tony,
This ammunition is loaded in berdan primed brass casings.
Q: Is this brass reloadable?
Posted On: 8/1/17 By: Scott Brown
A: Hi Scott,
These are not typically considered reloadable as they use berdan primers. Berdan primers are difficult and require special tools to be able to reload.
Q: Is this ammo corrosive?
Posted On: 2/1/16 By: Mike
A: Hello Mike!
While the Hirtenberger ammunition is a surplus round, it is loaded with all non-corrosive components. This ammunition is one of the highest quality surplus rounds on the market currently.
Q: Is there any steel in this ammo? Will it pass the magnet test?
Posted On: 9/6/15 By: William
A: Hello William!
This ammunition does contain steel in the bullet and will not pass any magnet tests.
Q: When was this ammo manufactured?
Posted On: 6/20/15 By: Mitchell
A: Hello Mitchell,
The Hirtenberger ammunition was manufactured in the 1970s.
