Federal XM80C. 7.62x51. 149g FMJ

What can you tell me about it?
How does it shoot? Is the brass any good for reloading?
Is $13the per 20 rounds a fair price?

If you don't get an answer you might want to join the M14 Forum and ask in their ammunition section. These guys seem to know their stuff concerning M14 rifles and 7.62x51 ammo.

It's Nato-spec ball. Good brass, boxer primed, etc.

It's probably not better than 2MOA. Not Federal GMM, but probably just fine for 95% of your needs.

Thanks, I picked up a couple of boxes to try out.

+1 to this, I bough a bunch of it a while back for about $11 per 20, I shoot it in my M1As with no problems.

This. I found it to be on the hot side.. it fed well in a rifle that was a very picky eater (lots of F2E issues with other ammo). Good reloading brass too.
