What's your Tactical Match Cartridge choice?

Because it's not a good choice for a cartridge for long range tactical matches and also some matches don't allow anything smaller than 6mm cartridges. </div></div>

Concur with Rob. I ran my 223 silver bullet at Black Hat and had a blast, but definitely couldn't run with the faster bigger bullets. On one stage with a flasher, the 75g AMAX just wasn't enough to make the flasher dance, so a hit towards the bottom of the target was called a miss. Lessons learned, I got a bigger gun. Other than that, I had a blast and still enjoy the 223 for its lack of expense and recoil.
