With each rifle being different and what shoots well in one not necessarily shooting well in all, the best accurate round for your rifle will be the round you reload for it, specifically.

Suggest ya go to [url]www.ammoman.com[/url], go for one of his mix/match 5 box deals and make sure to get the Fed GM 69 grn. SMK rounds, for they MAY be the ticket for ya. You can get several other brands and try them, too, but stay away from the 80 grn. "throated" barrel rounds, which are probably too heavy for your (1/9 ??, ya didn't say, and should so suggestions will fit your particular twist rate) rifle.

Check with the guys in the ammo forum.

But it really is mosly a matter of trial and error.
Some ARs will eat anything, but some are very picky.

Wrong forum.

This gun will mostly likely outshoot you using any standard ammunition.

Start off with Federal American Eagle, then work up to more expensive stuff.

I'd also give [url]www.georgia-arms.com[/url] a try.  Great remanufactured ammo for good prices

all depends on how tight you can really shoot.

"rolling your own" - reloading, would give you the most accurate rounds.

Tip #2 - turn off the caps lock key.  On the Net, it's equivalent to YELLING!!
