Again not a bad bang for the buck result from the PSA load.
Odd flyer from the BHA. Would you be willing to share your personal TMK load ? I seem to have a heck of a time getting the 77gr TMK group as well as I'd like. How do you suppose the bad TMK bullet got that way ? From Sierra or at PSA ? And could you cut in half the bad PSA case ? I am curious if the issue is inside as well. And Thanks for sharing ! |

Was the high TMK bullet the first round of the group?

Quote HistoryQuoted: Again not a bad bang for the buck result from the PSA load. No and if say you are thinking of this for hunting.......... do you care what the case looks like or the runout? Odd flyer from the BHA. IDK........ I looked at the cartridges (like all of them), didn't see anything unusual? ? Would you be willing to share your personal TMK load ? I seem to have a heck of a time getting the 77gr TMK group as well as I'd like. Only generally, Mag length, R15 get them around 2700-2750. I do use a bushing, so light tension. How do you suppose the bad TMK bullet got that way ? From Sierra or at PSA ? No idea, I don't know................ Are these actual SIERRA TMK's? As like the 77 rounds, it didn't "SIERRA" on the box, just 77TMK. ??? And could you cut in half the bad PSA case ? I am curious if the issue is inside as well. I already tossed all the brass into the recycle bin. FWIW......... I did the paper clip test and didn't feel any groove. The outside, I could barely catch it with the finger nail. ??? And Thanks for sharing ! |

Thanks for the answers. FWIW, the PSA webpage says "Features The 5.56 77GR Sierra Tipped MatchKing® Ammunition from AAC delivers superior performance when you need it most. Sierra Tipped MatchKing® 77gr Projectile:" |

Sierra Tipped MatchKing® 77gr Projectile:" Ok........ well thats pretty clear then. But no, I have no way of knowing when that damage occurred. PS: My load............ brass is usually lake city but for sure same headstamp. Otherwise nothing special. |
