Description

PMC X-TAC 7.62x51mm NATO ammunition (brand part no. 762X) is NATO-spec rifle ammunition tried and tested by military and law enforcement organizations around the world, built to the exacting specifications those customers demand. PMC loads this M80-pattern round with a 147-grain full metal jacket boat-tail bullet in brass cases, pushing it to 2,800 fps for dependable, mil-spec-grade performance. The boat-tail base reduces drag in flight, helping the bullet hold velocity and a flatter trajectory at extended range. Among rifle ammunition, this X-TAC load favors shooters who want genuine NATO-spec ball for training and qualification work.
