TAC in 5.56/223?

Re: TAC in 5.56/223?

23.6gr TAC
Hornady 68gr BTHP Match
LC brass (mixed)
Remington 7-1/2 primers
COAL 2.255

This shoots very well (.5-.75 MOA out to 300 yards) out of my RRA NMA4. It also comes about as close as I could get to the Black Hills 68gr ammo I used before I started reloading.

TAC rocks the heavier bullets 68's, 69's, 75's, and 77's

Exterminator is better for the 55's

Rumor is that TAC is what Black Hills uses for their loads.

24.0gr. TAC
77gr. SMK
Remington brass
Remington benchrest primers
2.255 COAL

Groups have varried from 1/4 to 1 1/4 MOA, but the rifle is still new and needs to break-in.

No signs of excessive preassure for a max. load in an AR.

plinker load
25.5 TAC with any 55 gr bulk bullet

for match ammo, use varget.
