Hornady 5.56 NATO 75 gr BTHP Superformance Match 20ct - Brass Casing

Glad I got them when they were $7.60.

I have been using this ammo for stash, defense, target, and hunting for many years. It works and is accurate. I have an Armalite Defender, 1/7 CL barrel zeroed at 50 yards with groups pretty much within an inch or the same hole. I can then reach out to gongs at 342 yards and hit consistently if I am doing my part. There are man size steel targets and then small head size ones. The small ones are harder to hit because of me but they can be hit and hard when it hits. I hit prairie dogs at 200 yards and at longer ranges but again I have to be on my game. The rifle and ammo are up to it. No doubt it will take larger animals. I may use it on a pronghorn. Definitely good for perps, bad guys, evil doers, and gremlins.

I have three Sig 516s with 16 inch barrels and 1:7 twist that I routinely shoot at 100 yards indoors. This Superformance 75gr Match ammo is truly match quality for me. It runs neck-n-neck with Black Hills MK 262 Mod 1 / SMK 77gr OTM for accuracy. On any given day, it's a toss up as to which will shoot the tighter group. All three rifles routinely shoot 0.50 inch 3-shot groups, 0.75 inch 5-shot groups, 0.95 inch 10-shot groups, and 1.7 inch 20-shot groups with this ammo. And I'm sure the ammo is capable of more accuracy with a bolt action and longer barrel. Only hand loads can beat them for accuracy. As a footnote: A couple of years ago, Hornady used to have a warning on their website about shooting this ammo in an AR-15 with a carbine length gas system, and listed some signs of damage to look for on the spent cases. My Sig 516s have carbine length gas systems and I've never seen any of the signs on any of the cases, and I've never had a single malfunction from over 1100 rounds of this ammo in my Sig 516s.

Great hard hitting match grade ammo. Its Hornady ad top of the line as all their products are. Great price and shipping.
