Overview
Built for Service Rifle competition in M16A2/AR-15A2 platforms, this 22 caliber 69 grain HPBT match bullet is intended for shooters focused on precision and consistency at the range. It has been associated with record-setting accuracy, making it a strong fit for competitive use and other applications where tight shot placement matters. The design is not recommended for most hunting applications, and it is not intended to deliver the same level of explosive expansion as lightly jacketed varmint bullets. Reloaders should consult a reloading manual or powder manufacturer’s load data before use.
