Hi all! What's the best factory ammo for a Norinco M305/M14 clone?
I currently have batches of some various Milsurps rounds I'm messing with however I'm after something that's in always production (Hornady, American Eagle etc) that's very accurate with stopping power for both large deer & pigs out to 400m and feeds well. My Norinco M14 build has an adjustable gas plug so I can up to 180gr.
Having had a few of these I didn't find a single ammo that worked best in all of them. The Remington corelock 150 was probably the closest
Assuming you have the factory bolt with the overly generous headspace then stay away from stellar and bellot with its thin brass. Reloaded ex military brass is probably best. Also soft points used to get mashed going through the action is mine so Sierra 165 hpbt game kings worked the best. Something with a plastic tip would also work.
Nice. I'll check those out (Y) What kind of groupings are you getting with the Corelokt? Also have you tried American Eagle FMJ's? Apparently those work half decent.Quote:
