I'm pretty sure M80 is standard along with the 130 Gr. SOST MK319 OTM. If you are shooting a MK20 or going long with a 17, the 175 Gr M118 “LR” BTHP would be best. This is all from what I have read.

Someone like @Combat_Diver would know for sure I assume.

Yes, generally M118LR used in Mk17/20s. Not much Mk319 seen anymore. Do have some subsonic 147gr FMJ blue tip (sorry, don't remember the nomenclature). Still get M80 on 5 rd strippers/bandoleers but that's used on the range. Some delink M993 AP if needed. There's also the M80A1/M62A1 linked that can also be delinked. Haven't seen any M852 in decades.

I just got a set of Taco's and I'm digging them. They are on my battle belt and that's one reason I picked them, I can run the SCAR or the AR and not have to swap anything out.
