Curious what you guys like in AR ammo heavier than 62 grain and why you like it.
My plan is to buy 20-40 rounds of multiple different loads and then finding the 69-77grain that shoots best in my gun. After finding that out I want to look for the closest equivalent cheap ammo to buy in bulk for practice.
I would like to find a barrier blind load that would be good for HD and good terminal to 500 yrds.
Check out the 77 grain OTMs. Great for distance work and also excellent for close in SD. I use IMI 77g 5.56. There is a video on TFB where they gel test the IMI stuff and it was very impressive. A friend of mine was put in a home defense situation and he was using 77g OTM in his AR pistol. 9 shots into the perp that shot his dog, including 2 to the head. All the rounds stayed in the subject, even the head shots. Needless to say I find that very impressive. So now the 77s are my primary round with the 62s and 55s for training.
