I ordered some a couple weeks ago from wideners that came yesterday. It's IMI equivalent and it was all they had at the time. It cost the same as the 1,200 rounds of 55gr fmj back in December. I haven't checked back lately.

Quoted:
I would like some MK262 for HD but I can not find any in stock. Midway has some BlackHills 77 grain in stock, but it is not MK262. Does anyone stock it that actually HAS some in stock? Every time I look it takes forever to find some and when I do it is always out of stock. All I need is 31 rounds and I'm happy, a box, maybe two, but I can find not a round in stock. Anyone know where i can find some? Got 1000rds of this coming https://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.cfm?item_id=100001636. Neckbearded it after the 855 scare, when the idiots were buying up all of the 55gr 5.56 cause the SS109 was gone(lol), I thought it prudent. From what I hear it is great stuff. |

Christ, you can buy your own reloading setup and roll your own for less than that. I make "Mk262-esque" ammo with 77gr matchkings. It doesn't have the waterproofing or the crimped primers but it shoots straight and I'm not going to be shooting anyone underwater with it.
FYI Mk262 and clones are super-gassy through a can, if you have one on your HD rifle. |

I haven't checked back lately. I ordered 100 rounds of this same stuff. It is out on the truck for delivery today. I also have 120 rounds of the Silver State Armory 5.56mm 77gr. SSA OTM ammo as well as 32 rounds of Mk262 I got a few years ago. I only use this ammo on special occasions. I do plan on stocking more of this as time and money allows. |

As reported by Black Hills it is made from the same components, same powder, on the same lines and to the same specs as the military designated Mk262. That being said the IMI is better built. |
