More Details About This Black Hills Ammunition 77gr OTM 5.56x45 Ammo
This is a MK262 Mod 1 cartridge, which Black Hills Ammunition originally developed in conjunction with the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit. The specialized 5.56x45 cartridge was meant to provide absolutely unparalleled accuracy, and many would agree that it succeeded in that mission in full. Black Hills chose Sierra’s 77 grain open tip match (OTM) projectile for the round owing to its slightly greater accuracy than other comparable bullets during testing. The bullet’s hollow point does not bring about expansion during penetration, but rather increases the bullet’s stability by putting a greater part of its weight toward its rear. For this reason this round doesn’t satisfy the hollow point criterion that would have banned it for use during warfare.
Save for its more attractive packaging, this round is exactly the same as what the Armed Forces would use. It’s loaded according to Black Hills’ best practices, which are considerable, and is brass cased and non-corrosive Boxer primed. Be certain to use a scope when you fire this round in order to enjoy its true potential -- you’ll be amazed to find out just how much you can accomplish with it.
