1.5 MOA through Ruger AR-556
These rounds are very accurate through my Ruger AR-556. I'm just an average shooter and I was getting 1.5" groups at 100 yards. In comparison, I get about 2.5-3" groups with Federal 5.56 55 grain. These shot better than much more expensive (around $23 for 20 rounds) Hornady Super Performance Match 5.56 75 grain, with which I was getting around 1.75" groups. Save $10 a box and get better performance? This is a no brainer. I'm stocking up a few of these.

Will 1:9 rifling shoot these accurately?
