Unfortunately, these are not available in the U.S. Even if they were, I don't think I'd be willing to pay the price.

The following link appears to be a U.S. dealer. They are expensive and would probably not be an option for all firearms due to being too slow in some and reaching sonic velocities in others. They are claiming 1050 fps with an 18" test barrel. I mainly posted this so those interested could view the hollow point bullet design.

This is a link to the same U.S. dealer for RUAG .308, 7.62x51, subsonics.

I see that I did not read your original posting very carefully. Sorry.

It's good to see that someone started importing this ammo. It was about a year ago that I was looking into it. The price is about what I expected. I might get some for samples, but can't see buying more than one box of each. This would be good for government agencies that cannot use handloads, though. Would anyone be interested in splitting a box with me?

Looks like Mil/LE only.

I might just have to see if I can get some of this, if only for the challenge
