SR 25 16" EM ammo recommendations
11/25/2011 6:22:03 PM
Happy 
to say I FINALLY have a SR25 EM inbound, should be in my hands next week. I do not reload and over the years I've accumulated quite a bit of 7.62x51 NATO ball ammo of various manufacturers. I'm curious if any other SR25 owners would share their experience as which commerically loaded match ammo gave the best accuracy in this particular rifle. Please be sure to share ideal bullet weight as well as the manufacturer.
Thanks, Lappy

I've only taken mine out to 200 yards so far but I was getting some pretty amazing groups with SWA 168 run and gun.

I've had my best results with Federal Gold Medal Match 168gr BTHP..

palmetto state has a great deal going on Federal Match 168 and 175. I'd get a couple boxes of each and start there.

If you use Federal GMM, I'd recommend using the 175gr if you shoot over 1000 yards.
