I need Black Hills 5.56 77gr mk 262 MOD 1 with the crimping. I know this us out of stock every where becuase this the main round our boys in the arm fources are currently useing, however since I shoot a AR with a 1/7 twist rate and a 18 inch barrel. I really don't have a chance to get into the top five at any meet shooting against guys that have it and they hold there sources like the holy grail. I have the complete spec sheet for any hand loader willing to take on the job. I look forward to any reply, if it's only to point me in the right direction.

Thank you,

Nathan

    Just because you have a 1:7 twist does not mean you have to shoot bullets that long (heavy), it just means that you can.

    If this is the load that works best for you then you would be well served by learning to reload.

    Just FYI, the 62gr loading is the standard issue for our service members.

    Reloading IS your best option.

    I would love to be able to contact this guy, Its the ammo am looking for. I only have email account with Live.com and Att.com. This site will not let me sihn up. I guess you have to own your own server or web site to have a private email address. They dont offer to give a credit card like Gunbroker.com. Is there a way you can seen him a message for me asking him if he still has it. I will buy it all, If you could just give him my email address. Redreaper@live.com. Thank you so much.
