Fiocchi loads this round with a 62 grain full metal jacket boat tail. Neither the FMJBT’s lead core nor its copper-alloy jacket are capable of attracting a magnet, and it lacks the M855 bullet’s steel insert. The FMJBT’s concentric jacket gives it good stability in flight. Its tapered base reduces drag, which makes long-distance shooting easier by promoting a flatter trajectory and faster downrange velocities. The slightly heavier bullet may have a lower muzzle velocity, although its greater heft does grant it better resistance against wind drift – excellent for outdoor target practice!
These are noncorrosive Boxer-primed cartridges, complete with the factory fresh and previously unfired brass cases that handloaders always like to see. This ammo is suitable for semi-autos and precision bolt-action rifles alike!
