GGG is a Lithuanian ammunitions company, and the abbreviation stands for Giraitės Ginkluotės Gamykla.

In year 2000 GGG was officially established and registered to build up and assemble factory within next 18 months. In 2001 the first trial batch of 7.62×39 mm cartridges for AK-47 was manufactured and in 2002 the official beginning of the production of the ball rounds were delivered to the customers.

In 2004 GGG cartridges in 5.56×45 mm and 7.62×51 mm were sent for the qualification at the NATO European Regional Tests Center and a year later they received the right to mark cartridges with the NATO interchangeability sign. About 90 % of the annual production is exported abroad.

In 2011 GGG decided to finalize development of .308 WIN ammunition designs and in 2012 .308 Win type cartridge started. In 2016 GGG started to make a .223REM type cartridges.

I have used their .223 Rem in 69 gr quite a lot, as it shoots like a laser. With one of their .308 Win SMK I have confirmed hits with my Ruger Precision Rifle out to 800 and 900 meters, in hard side winds.

 

LabRadar doing its thing for each bullet. It’s a great tool for capturing velocities in a test like this.

I don’t think GGG are available in the USA. Please remember that TFB has readers in other continents as well.
