RMR 69 gr OTMs

[BuzzinSATX]

Here are target photos. Targets shot from bench at 50 yards. 10 shot groups unless otherwise noted:

Pic 1. left side targets shot with BCM upper w/Burris on 6X. Right side pics with DDV2 w/Aimpoint Pro (and old ass eyes!)

Top targets: Russian Steel 55 FMJ
Mid targets: Fiocci 55 Gr SP (8 each)
Bottom targets: RMR 75gr over 24.5 VV N140, mixed unsized brass



Pic 2: both middle target shot with BCM upper gun w/Burris 6X scope and RMR 75 gr. 10 round groups.




So from here…

I’m good with these RMR 75 grain rounds and the load. I will load out a couple thousand for use and to replace the M855 I have sitting in some pre-loaded mags.

I never had a nice AR trigger…wow! Getting another CMC. If I had that trigger on my BCM with the scope, I am convinced the groups would have been even better..with a factory duty grade 16” barrel.

I also really like that DD grip for put on the DD. Gonna get one for the SOLGW lower.

Man the Russians make some bad bullets. I remember subbing components into Herters steel cased ammo. And everything about the ammo was good except the shitty bullets. I could sub in a 69 gr OTM in place of the 62 gr bullet, and have nice ammo.

I can’t complain…my neighbor gave me 4,000 rounds of the stuff when he moved back to CA. Shoots good enough to get started sighting in…and for short range matches.

For sure. People always bashed the Russian ammo as cheap junk, but when I tore it down and weighed charges and stuff, it was pretty good quality. The bullet was the weakest part.
