I’ve used this ammo in my 8x51R Lebel rifle for several weeks. The consistency of the rounds is excellent. The boat-tail design improves accuracy and reduces wind drift. The energy retention at 100 meters is as stated in the specs. Easy to load and reliable in field conditions.

Good performance with stable velocity. The 200-grain FMJ bullet is well balanced for this calibre. I noticed slight variation in group size at longer ranges, but overall it’s dependable for training and practice.
