Product Overview

Take NATO-spec performance and dial it up a notch - that's what PMC accomplished with their X-TAC 7.62x51mm load. These rounds push a 147-grain FMJ-BT projectile to an impressive 2800 fps, exceeding standard military velocities while maintaining optimal pressure curves. Delivering 2611 ft-lbs of energy, these rounds turn paper targets into confetti and make steel plates sing with authority.

Beyond raw numbers, this ammunition excels during intensive rifle training. The boat tail design cuts through crosswinds with minimal deflection, while the carefully spec'd powder charge maintains consistent pressure curves even during rapid strings. You'll particularly notice the difference when transitioning between targets at varying distances - these rounds track like they're on a wire, letting you focus on form instead of fighting your ballistics.

Roll up to the range with a case of X-TAC, and you're set for serious trigger time without financial regret. These rounds cycle smoothly through everything from vintage G3s to modern precision rigs, maintaining consistent groups even as barrel temperatures climb. The brass takes multiple reloading cycles without showing stress, adding extra value for handloaders. When your training schedule demands volume but your standards won't tolerate compromise, this ammunition bridges the gap between budget blasters and premium match loads.

Strengths
  • Reduced felt recoil from optimized weight profile helps maintain accuracy during extended range sessions
  • Streamlined boat-tail geometry promotes shot-to-shot consistency when engaging multiple targets
  • Sweet spot between power and control makes rapid follow-up shots more manageable
  • Practical accuracy meets training demands without the premium price of match-grade options
Limitations
  • Shows increased drift in challenging wind conditions due to lighter bullet weight
  • Delivers less distinctive feedback on steel targets beyond mid-range distances
  • Basic performance profile limits effectiveness for specialized shooting disciplines
