I bought a few Remington 115gr FMJs, and have been wondering what kind of accuracy I should expect.  



Do you have a different bullet to recommend for volume shooting?

I have 2 boxes loaded up for ladder testing, just haven't gotten around to it yet. I hope it will be a good plinking bullet. They look uniform enough...

The 115gr FMJ are NOT an accuracy bullet,  I have some and they will probably sit around till they rot because as near as I can tell They shoot about the same for everyone.  3-5 moa.  Only reason I havn't thrown them away is because I figure someday I might want to plink with my 6.8 and not care about accuracy.

Seriously don't buy them and expect accuracy.

3 moa?  Isn't  that what the typical AK variant produces which seems to be fine for most people when it comes to plinking.

Using 28.5 grains of H335 pushing 115 grain fmj's and getting about .65 MOA at 100 yards out of a RRA 16in bbl.
