5.56 NATOThe long shot
77 grain HPBT
Match · Precision · Long range
Heavier match bullet built for stability and accuracy at distance. The boat tail cuts drag, holds velocity and shrugs off wind. Loaded into Lake City brass with matched headstamps, so case volume stays uniform and your velocity spread stays tight.
Worth knowing. Needs a 1:8 or 1:7 twist to stabilise. It will not shoot its best from a 1:9.
