Double-tap loads new Winchester SS109/M855 projectiles to 3300fps in a 22" barrel and 2950fps in a 16" AR barrel as per their testing.
They bill it as “match grade” accuracy as I recall. I doubt it is that, but it is basically premium grade M855 from what I can tell. They seal the primer and case neck also. I do not know about crimping primers though.
Is this good stuff for SHTF ammo, or should I save the $. It is $30 per 50 rounds.
Nice ammo…but got really expensive over the last year. Like everything!!!
If you can put out for a case of 1000 you can get it for less.
Saw a few sellers on Gunbroker at $475/case. (use to be less than $250).
I’d say buy a case and pack it away…too expensive too shoot!!!
MATCH grade and M855 are non synonymous.
The projectile itself, no way, but the rest of the load can be up to snuff and that would help a lot, even if it can’t fix the bi-metal core being a bit off sometimes.
