Hirtenberger in Remington LTR

[rgkeller]

I will be shooting 168 Federal GMM in my .308 LTR.

If I also shoot Hirtenberger NATO 147, will this cause any problems with function or accuracy with the Federal GMM sessions.

Same question with Cavim NATO 147

I understand that the zero will be different.

Thanks

No problems with the ammo. Accuracy will be different. If you clean between brand switches and pop a couple of fouling shots, there should be no difference with the Fed 168s..

Test it out and verify that your rifle is not the 1 in a million one...

Be careful with NATO 7.62...

I don't know your rifle but the chamber on mine was tight with min headspace. I shoot only 168FedGM. Some of the surplus .308 has a copper wash on a mild steel jacket -- use a magnet to check. Your call if you want to use them but I went to the British Radway Green for 7.62 fodder in my other .308's.
