Beats the heck out of the Federal M series.
This is a much better option than the M series. Assuming you want accurate shots at 100 yards. BC is good. Not as good as high end Hornaday but twice the BC as the Fed M's.

Good, clean ammo. 62 grain designed for maximum performance
5.56 grain; specifically designed for maximum performance coming out of the 1:9 twist. Pros: Awesome ammo at very reasonable price.

1.5 MOA at 100 yards through Ruger AR-556
My Ruger AR-556 has a 1-in-8 twist and a 16" barrel. I'm getting groups around 1.5 MOA at 100 yards with no flyers. It's one group. For reference, I get around 3.5 MOA at 100 yards with Federal American Eagle. I'll be buying more of these for cost-effective, yet accurate ammo.
