    All of my ARs have 1/7 barrels.
    My competition and defensive loads have 75 or 77gr projectiles.
    My high density training ammo is either 62 or 55gr.
    I have shot examples of each that were consistently well under 2 MOA at 200 yards from a high quality barrel.

    Sounds good enough to me.
