Featuring a 168gr Sierra MatchKing bullet, the Sig Sauer 308 Win Open Tip Match (OTM) round has a muzzle velocity of 2,700 feet-per-second with a muzzle energy of 2,719 feet-pounds.

Sig Sauer engineers designed the round to excel in today’s precision autoloading platforms, as well as bolt-action rifles. The temperature-stable propellant in the cartridge delivers consistent muzzle velocity in all weather conditions, and premium-quality primers ensure minimum velocity variations.

All Sig Sauer rifle ammunition is precision loaded on state-of-the-art equipment that is 100 percent electromechanically monitored for geometric conformity and charge weight consistency. The shell case metallurgy is optimized in the SIG Match Grade OTM cartridge to yield consistent bullet retention round to round.
