Overview
Built for shooters who want a large supply of 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition on hand, this 62-grain FMJ load is positioned for training, range work, and other high-volume use. PMC’s X-Tac line is presented as a duty-oriented option with military and law enforcement use in mind, while the bulk 1000-round format suits those stocking up for extended sessions. It is also important to note the chambering guidance provided: although 5.56 NATO may fit in a .223 Remington chamber, it is not recommended for use there because it runs at higher pressures.
