    On edit: I missed the other thread

    I know this is a 69 grain thread but RMR has introduced a 75 grain bullet.

    From the website:

    DESCRIPTION
    This is a brand new product by RMR. Basically, all I have done is rudimentary accuracy tests to make sure that I’m happy with it’s accuracy capability. I’ve been using 75-77 grain load data from Hornady or Sierra with good results. Our bullet machine is not supposed to be able to make a bullet this long but we did some cheating and work arounds and we were able to get it to make a pretty awesome bullet. There is a small ring near the tip that is just part of the process of cheating the creation of this bullet, but accuracy is not affected. Initial testing tells me this bullet has a better BC than the Hornady, but I haven’t been able to test it fully at distance yet. Any feedback on BC and accuracy will be much appreciated.

    Also, keep in mind that these are polished in corn cob media and there will be tiny pieces of media stuck in the tips. It does not affect accuracy.

    Pappabear ordered some of the 75s. I actually have some Norma once fired brass with Wolf SRMs waiting patiently for the bullets. We'll shoot a bunch next weekend.

    And we shot a bunch of the 69s today. Still pure enjoyment from these bullets.

    Great thread! Love RMR bullets! Haven’t started loading .223 yet but their 9MM bullets are excellent!

    My 69s here Tuesday. Ignore corn cob, pick at/mash in with thumbnail, micro robotic removal surgery, or what?

    I poor mine into a plastic tote. The bottom of that thing was full of that damned media. I agree with MarshallDodge... just ignore it as much as possible.

    Markm- do you find the Federal AR Match primers to be a decent stand in for Wolf SRM?
