M193.
Yes, there is better stuff out there, and it has been proven time and again to be superior, both in windshield penetration and gel wound channels. Nope, I don't really care. M193 is good enough for me. |

My first mag up is a 20 loaded with old school Remington 55JSP's. Backup mags are 30's with old Winchester PowerPointPlus 64-grain moly-coated JSP. It's not a religion with me; I'd be content with a lot of different loads, as long as they're not way out on the fringe edges of available options.

5.56 75 gr TAP with the 5.56 FBIT3 TBBC load every third round. (I also have dedicated tap and fbit3 mags)
I'm really interested to see new gel shots from the black hills TMK ammo. I also have doubletap 223 77gr nosler rounds that could be used in a pinch. |

They are loaded up and in a drawer in my nightstand, but I bought most of it for hunting purposes (minus the PDX1, ballistics dont look so great for hunting. Seems to fragment after looking at test videos) But all of it will be good for HD so I figure why not keep it near by? Also have a lot of magazines filled with M193 or M855 as well, but its all in the closet since I have gotten what I listed above. |

Prvi Partizan 75 gr BTHP. It shoots 1.5 MOA from my SHTF rifle and has excellent terminal performance. It also costs a lot less than many other defense choices.
