Razor Core is the IMI version of the Black Hills MK262 Mod 1.  Widener's sells it for $370/500, while Black Hills is $500/500.  Both are cartridges actually used by the Military.

Razorcore is just a heavy BTHP.  it's no different than 75 or 77gr Sierra, Hornady, or Prvi.

My Mk12 Mod 0 clone can not tell them apart. Huge stack of the IMI stuff here.

The real question is why do you need a single round for both? All you are going to is end up with something that's more expensive than practice ammo but mediocre at self defense.

The differences in zero are negligible at normal training distances and can be mitigated trying several different rounds to see which has the closest POI.

If you were stockpiling 5.56 for everything from practicing to self defense, shtf etc. what one round would it be? xm193, m855 etc.

PPU 75 gr BTHP. More expensive than M193 but only by a small margin and it's much more accurate and terminally effective than M193.

Or TSX, only 2 I would consider.  One of my AR's is a 1/9, so no super-heavy stuff for me.
