For AR-15 competitors in 3-Gun, NRL22, and precision rifle matches, the 77gr match is the bullet weight that wins. Sub-MOA groups are standard in quality platforms with proper barrel twist.

Frequently Asked Questions
What twist rate do I need?
1:7 or 1:8 twist is required to stabilize the 77gr bullet. Most modern AR-15 barrels come in 1:7. A 1:9 twist will not stabilize this bullet reliably.
Is this better than 55gr or 62gr match ammo?
For accuracy at distance, yes. The 77gr has a much higher ballistic coefficient, meaning less wind drift and more energy on target. It’s the preferred match bullet for .223/5.56 competition.
Can I shoot this in my 5.56 NATO chamber?
Yes. .223 Rem can be safely fired in 5.56 NATO chambers. The reverse (5.56 in .223 chambers) is not recommended.
Is the brass reloadable?
Yes. Match-quality new boxer-primed brass, fully reloadable.
What is the minimum order?
Minimum order is 100 rounds. Bulk pricing on 200+ rounds.
