Hey fellas, I have a new LWRC M6A2 SPR. It has a 16in 1-7 RH twist barrel. I was hoping someone on here might be running something similar and can give me a good starting point for a good factory match round that will perform out to 500yds. I figure something on the heavier side obviously. If someone is running something thats working good for them in the same type of platform your input would be appreciated. I do reload but I'm getting ready to rotate back to the states and would like to compete in a couple of matches when I get back. I simply won't have the time to do load development and everything that goes along with it in time to compete. So yes I'm looking for the easy way out for now that is why I'm looking for a factory match round. Thanks in advance for your help.
 
Re: Round selection question?

Have you looked at the Hornady Steal Match ammo, the 75gr BTHP's have been performing good out of my 1 in 8 16" AR. And you will not have to worry about finding your brass at matches.
