Does anyone have any experience with this stuff?  I'd be shooting it out of a M1A, and LMT308MWS.

I searched, wasn't able to find much information on it.

MEN is up there with Privi, LC, IMI and PMC X-Tac.

Good stuff.

thanks for the replies...

What about GGG and IMI?

Is there a 7.62x51 ammo sticky somewhere I should know about?

It's very good stuff. I'd rate it better than LC, IMI(as mentioned, it can vary quality wise lot to lot), and a little better than PRVI. About on par with PMC.

PRVI is the most accurate M80 I have shot, it shoots about 1.5  MOA out of my blaster AR-10. I have purchased a lot of Winny M80 and it's not as near consistent as PRVI...

Was the opposite for my my Dad's M1A. He had 3" group at 100 yards with it. ZQi gave him the best group in his.

 



GGG stuff I had was slower than most M80 I've tested

If you're not into reloading consider the Hirtenberger SGammo still has in stock. It's great ammo still in pristine condition. Berdan primed noncorrosive.

I just broke open a box of hirtenberger for my SCAR, and so far I really like it. It shoots very well for ball ammo, especially for the price.

How does Hirtenberger compare to MEN 7.62x51 accuracy wise?

I have Hirtenberger, and my FAL seems to like it, but it is about 2.5MOA
Would MEN ammo be more accurate?

I've only been shooting 3 shot groups, from a scar with a TA-11, with that said, they're usually about 2.5 also. 5-10 shot groups would open that up, but a precision rifle and better optic would make the groups smaller so I'd wager the difference would likely be a wash.

Thanks for the input, I think I will try a few boxes then decide which one to buy more of
