PMC X-Tac 5.56

This is an unboxing/review-ish of a case (1,000 rounds) of PMC X-Tac 55gr. bullets. I also talk about the 62gr. Green Tip bullets from PMC as well.

The 62g X-Tac is an LAP bullet according to PMC's site.

@rjake61 You are correct. It also says LAP on the front of the box. It stands for "Light Armor Piercing", so I am guessing that they are "Armor Piercing", but not held to actual stantards.

@Alldickedup They were. I was using the 55gr. Xtac. Personally, I think the hogs up here are a little meaner.

[Alldickedup]

@WestTexasGunGuy were they both shot with xtac?

[WestTexasGunGuy]

@Alldickedup You are right about that. Where I currently live, it is actually harder do kill a pig than it is when Im down in South Texas where the rest of my family lives. I took a pig the other day down there and it took one shot to the chest but when I came home, it took 4 shots to do the same thing on a pig that was pretty much the same weight/size.

@WestTexasGunGuy Like everything in life, its all about preference. As long as you enjoy your setup. How does 5.56 do against pigs?

[WestTexasGunGuy]

@Alldickedup I liked my iron sights for awhile, but weve been having more and more pigs come onto our land. Sitting on the porch in the evening is nice down here, so its easy to shoot pigs from the porch.

[Alldickedup]

@WestTexasGunGuy I like iron sights haha.

[WestTexasGunGuy]

@Alldickedup Sounds like you really know what to do when it comes to sighting in your weapons. Until recently Ive only sighted in long guns, but when my optics came in the other day, I was finally able to do it for my AR.

[Alldickedup]

i have an plane jane a2 upper. no optics. I use the army's method of zeroing. so its a 36/300m zero. shoot point of aim/point of impact at 25 meters with your rear windage drum at 8/3+1 ( or 6/3+2 if youre using a detachable carry handle)
