| Load | Class range | Classes | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| .308 Soft-Point | 4-8 | Expanding: big wound, best on broadside shots | |
| .308 Polymer-Tip | 4-8 | Penetrating: angled shots and the top of the class band |
Notes: AR-10 style semi-auto, medium-large game.

How to Use the ZARZA-10 .308
- Pick the load by the animal’s class first, then by shot angle: expanding loads (soft-point, hollow-point) for broadside shots, penetrating loads (polymer-tip, FMJ) for quartering and frontal shots or animals at the top of the class band.
- Aim for the heart and lungs just behind the front leg. A clean lung or heart shot passes the harvest check and keeps trophy integrity.
- Zero your scope for the distances you actually shoot on that reserve, and use the rangefinder before long shots.
- Shoot from a rest or prone when you can; it steadies the reticle far more than standing.
- Big game: it reaches class 8, so it can stop dangerous animals. Keep a follow-up shot ready on bears, big cats and buffalo.
