    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    Correct, and I proved that the weapon system and shooter is capable of shooting <2moa by using my 70gr TSX to fire a 1.69moa 10 shot group off the mag as a monopod prone in a field, lol. It and my DDM4 just hate TMK. That DDM4 would put anything (MK262, MK318, 70gr TSX, good lots of M193...

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    I hate not being able to edit...about 300 rounds through the KAC barrel. As you can see, it's shooting the 70gr TSX probably near to the systems mechanical ability. The best group I've seen from 70gr TSX was 1.2moa fired from a Kreiger barreled weapon off a concrete bench with a 45x leupold by...

    Years ago, it was a DDM4 chrome lined CHF 16.1" barrel with about 8K through it. 1/7 twist with surefire 556-212 suppressor. Today it was a KAC 11.5" barrel, 1/7 twist, CHF, chrome lined, with QDC 556 KAC suppressor.

    The case. By my count thats 470 rounds total in 9 full 50 round boxes, and the remainder of the 10th box. I used 30 rounds for my evaluation. I say used, because I loaded a full pmag, and backpressure from the can dusted the mag pretty ugly.

    Gratuitous range picture to explain the shooting situation. I just used the mag as a monopod.

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    At this point, Im just rage quitting TMK. I bought some way back in the day when it first became a thing from Black Hills. I recall that it grouped like trash in known 1moa guns. I am a 1moa shooter behind an AR pattern rifle with 4x or more magnification. 10 shot groups, prone, off the...

    My friends and I have used 75gr gold dot, 70gr gmx, 70gr tsx, 64gr ra556b (nosler bonded), and none of us have recovered a single projectile on 120-180# deer, even hitting spine diagonally and ribs in and out etc.

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    I am working my way through this thread and have really enjoyed it so far. I killed my first deer with a 5.56 (RA556B), and each year give my friends different rounds to hunt with (One year it was 70gr TSX, one year it was 75gr Gold Dot, etc). So far we have harvested deer with: RA556B (The...
