Details
The proven M855 ammo that is made to mimic the military specification and does so very well, while still not being contracted ammunition by spec. The steel core projectile is a 62 grain weight bullet that functions very well in 1 in 7, 1 in 8 and 1 in 9 barrels which allow increased performance at longer distances and effective shooting out past 300 yards when dialed in correctly. The Boxer primed brass cases are annealed at the throat and offer easy reloading with great flexibility and can be reloaded multiple times. Talk about a value add. This cartridge offers a great set of ballistics by the numbers with a velocity of 3020 feet per second and 1255 pound feet of energy at the muzzle.
This is the scary “green tip penetrator” your mother warned you about. Be aware that this will be dramatically effective on varmints, in home defense situations and against steel swinging targets. These tend to be ideal targets for this round and while it will work for big game including deer and hogs, it’s a great round for just going out and slinging lead down range at heavy object on stands, or at bottles of water. The plinking capabilities of this round are essentially unmatched with the storied green tip involved. If we didn’t know any better, we’d think the military created the XM855 spec just to have a bit of fun in their off time. Fun is delivered one round at a time through a green tip penetrator.
