Sierra 7.62mm 30 Cal 150gr FMJBT
The Sierra 7.62mm 30 Cal 150gr FMJBT is a precision component bullet for handloaders and shooters who seek reliable feeding, clean penetration, and consistent external ballistics in .30-caliber rifles. Featuring a .308‑inch diameter and 150‑grain full-metal-jacket boat‑tail design, this FMJBT bullet delivers optimal velocity retention and accuracy across cartridges such as .308 Winchester, 7.62×51 NATO, and 30-06 Springfield.
Specifically engineered for use in semi-automatic rifles, this 150gr #2115 bullet functions flawlessly in the M14/M1A, M1 Garand, and other similar platforms. The cannelure is positioned to yield proper overall length for both .308/7.62 NATO and 30-06 cartridges, ensuring dependable feeding and ignition in magazine-fed and clip-fed rifles. Its clean cycling and stable trajectory make it a trusted choice for range work and practical marksmanship drills.
Built with a robust copper-alloy jacket over a lead core, the FMJBT profile incorporates a streamlined ogive and a tapered boat-tail base to reduce drag and enhance wind resistance. This design supports sustained supersonic flight and delivers flat trajectories across mid-to-long distances—beneficial for shooters engaging paper targets, silhouettes, or practical steel setups.
In handgun applications, this 150gr FMJBT serves well for specialty hunting situations where pelt preservation is essential. The non-deforming jacket construction minimizes fur damage on small to medium game when loaded to lower velocities. Ideal for short-range hunting scenarios, it offers ethical lethality with limited expansion.
Manufactured to Sierra’s rigorous component standards—150.0 grains weight, 0.308″ diameter, and sectional density near 0.259—the bullet delivers consistent jacket thickness, concentric alignment, and repeatable accuracy in quality handloads. As a component bullet, it allows reloaders full control over powder selection, primer type, and seating depth to achieve tailored performance for both rifle and specialty handgun platforms.
