My 20" Krieger likes it a lot.... However, velocity from my rifle was rather slow.
At the price you are looking at... I would order a few boxes and try it in your rifle. |

I tried a couple of boxes in my PSA 20" CHF upper and it was really accurate. When I burn through my stash of ADI 69gr I'm going to switch to the PMC.

The .223 pressure SMK loads seem slow to me. The 69 that ADI loads only got me 2550 and my relatively mild 75gr handloads clocked 2600. This is in a 16" |

While that IS slow vs. all the other loads tested....I noted that it is pretty comparable to Federal GMM. My view on rifles is very simple- if they won't shoot FGMM well, it's a shitty rifle, sell it. Sure, it may shoot one load or another better, but across the board, nobody builds better ammo than Federal Gold Medal Match, not consistently and in the quantity they do. So....the PMC may not be in bad company.....I ordered quite a bit myself to test, I guess we'll see.
