Just curious as to what everyone else shoots ?
For me ,Range ammo 55 gr fmj-bt or 62 gr HPBT. I save the surplus military bulk buys for SHTF. I have some Hornady 75 gr VLD for the long range stuff.
 
Rolling my own using RMR 69 grain HPBTs has produced the best groups for most of my rifles.
 
Whatever 55gr jhp is on sale. Store half of it, shoot the other half, reload it, shoot it again, till the necks start splitting or I don't recover it.
My RRA doesn't like the M855 for whatever reason, can't hold a group, looks like buckshot at 100 yds. So I just stay with 55gr ammo for it.
 
Field dynamics 55gr Hornady Vmax work well in my 20" AR out to 350yds. Good coyote killer.
 
XM193 or PMC
