Proposing new product 223 and 556 in 62 grain

[drill702]

What is the velicity of the 5.56 out of a 16" barrel?

 

[Jaz094]

Yes. Great to have a Canadian manufacturer

 

[koesdibyo]

Western Metal... any updates?

 

[Suchee]

69gr 556, yup

 

[$kull]

I vote for a lower cost option
We already can get 1000 rounds for $500

We need 1k for $375 as an option. In whatever grain. We need range ammo domestic and cheap.

62 grain would be great! some in 77 would be Awesome!

Seems to me that you have the response that you asked for, so where's the new ammo? Not that it much matters right this instant, seeing as how the 2018 summer shooting season is now drawing to a close. Will we see it in time for 2019?

 

[tibin245]

yes 62 gr

 

[yz295]

Yes !

 

[senecaty]

Yep

The 62 grain should be in production very shortly after we catch up on production from some unforeseen delays.

 

[Redmaple]

Too expensive. I'll reload myself.

Too expensive. I'll reload myself.

Interesting. I would reload if I had accuracy demands that couldn't be met through factory product. Otherwise, my time is better spent shooting, working, or with my family.

 

[Kanaskichuck]

Yes please.

 

[r34skyline]

Yes

 

[Ronjon73]

How bout some cheap bulk 8mm FMJ (.323) projectiles ?

 

[Western Metal Inc]

Just got all the components in and will be setting up the machines for production today!!!

 

[SigWig]

very good. What grain will this run be?

Edit: looks like from post 91, 62gn

 

[Maple57]

62 grain FMJ is good but 69 grain SMK HPBT or at least someone's cheap HPBT would really grab my attention.

 

[FyreFighter]

Well, since the thread title was 62g, I am going to go out on a limb and say 62g
