Theoretically... M193 is actual milspec, manufactured for a government contract and meeting all requirements. XM193 is a commercial clone. May or may not be the exact same as the milspec. In practice I doubt you could tell the difference.
In reality there is no commercial enforcement of the nomenclature. PMC M193 X-TAC is not milspec, but is some very good stuff.

10-4, I kind of want to practice with the M193. 35 cents a round is reasonable.

If you shoot that X-TAC stuff at night, you won't need a floodlight..........the muzzle flash will light it up.

I haven"t reloaded any yet. It runs heavy, like IMI. Nice heavy web and thick walls at the base. I like that nice radius at the web/wall interface. The Germans make good stuff, I'd buy it.

you do see a lot of PMC, which works fine nary a misfire, but pretty sure its not as hot as IMI M193.
