Home Forums Hunting & Shooting AR and Tactical Rifles RMR Bullets

For anyone who has used them.

What’s the verdict on accuracy and on critters. The 69gr apparent Sierra clone looks good but how good are they. The price is sure right.
Thanks

I can't give you first hand knowledge as I am still running through the supply of bullets I have but from what I have read on their facebook group page and a few forums they perform really well.

79s bought a bunch of them at the beginning of the year. Maybe he will report back on how they perform.

I saw in another thread here that guys are using them and getting similar results as they do with the sierra's. Some have even said the bc's are a hair better. Guys are being tight lipped because they don't want the word out buddy.. I'll buy some and report back..

Thanks bud. I saw a couple references to them myself. They look to me like a good alternative. Think I’ll put my 62gr bullets up for sale. For a one bullet fits all, an accurate 68-70 gr make a lot of sense.

An accurate less expensive bullet really makes sense. ha ha.. Sounds like a great idea to me.

Shootem, shoot me a PM . I'm just a couple of miles from you, and I've got a couple thousand on the way from RMR. I'll spot you a handful to try if you want.

I’m getting decent results with them using accurate 2200. I loaded some more up and used AR-comp and N540 to see how they do. I just haven’t made it to the range to shoot them. They are not quite a clone to the sierras. The base ogive on the RMR is longer than the Sierra 69gr OTM.

stick says they have a better bc than the sierra's. If they shoot as good, I'm all in..

We have our first match coming up next month. I will give these a run at 600yds. I will have a better idea on what the bc is after that match.

Just tried some in a Howa 1500 .223 with a 9 twist yesterday. Jury is out as I couldn't get them to group. Should've been a peas and carrots setup. More testing to come.

What powder did you try and how many different loads? I'm assuming you were working up to find accuracy node?

Tried XBR8208 and F205 primers in PMC brass annealed with AMP. Worked up from 22.8 gr to 23.8 gr. Velocity was b/t 2700-2870 fps. I plan on trying it again before running them in a 1/7 twist AR. Shotgun patterns at 300 yards....No keyholing.

Dang, that doesn't sound good. Have you tried the comparable 69gr SMK? You would think accuracy would be pretty good out of a bolt gun.

I have tried them at 100 yards. Sub-MOA if I recall correctly.

Seat them at 2.250-2.255, I use 22.2gr accurate 2200 with cci 41. Getting 2723 out of a 16inch barrel. Bc holding around .335

Thanks, I am going to try A2200. Been trying other powders with mixed results.

Ran SW Match all the way up to 26.8 grains and it was just starting to show ejector swipes but the grouping was not good with Rem 7-1/2 and worse with Fed AR Match.

8208 with the Fed AR primers were showing potential but I need to work that up a little more.

How are they doing at distance buddy? Did you shoot them at the 600? I still haven't bought any. Been too damn busy buying and fixing up old rifles and working on loads for them. Was hoping some of you guys would do a better show and tell before I bought some of these bullets. Mickey never did come back and say if he's tried them...??

This evening I will run them across the course 200,300 and 600. I only shot them at 200yds and they are shooting pretty good. Just hovering around MOA, this is out of my chepo AR I built with the $85 dollar ar stoner barrel. As of now RMR are out of these and backordered.
