Thanks for taking the time to test this stuff. Not that it still will not get the job done, but HSM 5.56-17T sure does not compare well with the other loads in the 20” Colt HBAR 1:7”.

Keep in mind that while the HSM loads might not be as accurate as the Hornady or Black Hills loads, they are still more accurate than the best M193 or M855 out there.

The T1C as it's referred to here at AR15.com. It's the 75 grain BTHP with cannelure.

I agree.

Ordered 1.5K for myself and 0.5k for my Dad back when it was still $370-$390. Just placed another order for another 1k a couple weeks ago.
