Is this any good?

Is this worth a shit? Seems like a decent value for a "match grade" round... I have an 18" AR I'd like to see if heavier match grade ammo does better than 55gr bulk.

It's not Black Hills, but it's pretty darn good. On par with Fed GMM. It would be my pick if I weren't already hand loading a 75gr hornady

Barrel twist is extremely important when using heavy, long bullets. in 5.56, 68+ grain bullets won't stabilize in anything other than a 1:7 twist.

Crush, kill, mangle, maim, destroy.

It should handle up to 80 grain bullets, then.

Crush, kill, mangle, maim, destroy.
