Range Report what bullet is in XM193?

[jackinfl]

I ask this as I was shooting .223 Hornady 60gr TAPyesteday out of my Noveske. I was getting dope fr my new NF scope. As per hornady they load their 60gr Vmax bullet into their TAP ammo. The BC for this is .265. I was at 300 yards and dialed 1.5 mils and was hitting no problwm. I switched to Xm193 and with the same dope hit no problem. I just want to see what the round is so I can check the BC. that way I can practice with a much cheaper round...

Thanks

I hope your kung-fu is stronger than your google-fu. Mostly, weedhopper, I hope your ching-chang-pow is strongest.

55 FMJBT with cannelure. Bullet is supposed to be launched @ 3250 from a 20" barrel (AR15/M16A1,-A2, -A3) Estimate 25-50 fps velocity drop per less inches.

This stuff shoots at 3450 from my 26" barreled 12FV.
