Could these loads be used for anything effectively?

say .308win??

Is this ammo loaded better than hunting ammo? tighter tolerances? costs more? or just match style bullets, higher BC's??

Think usually is just the bullet type. Non-expanding, usually. Flat or boat tail design. Usually for punching paper. I know sometimes the ammo is cheaper than regular ammo, sometimes more depending on manufacture.

Here is an article on another site I visit. Probably give you alot more details.
