Who carries 62 gr Win White Box 223?

[BigUglyMan]

The title says it all. I'm looking for 62gr FMJ White Box for my Black Special. Apparently the rifle quite likes this stuff (I haven't received it yet) so I want to get some of it rather than experimenting with somethign else and (likely with my luck) finding that it doesn't work worth a damn.

Fast responses are appreciated as I want to try the rifle out starting next week when I go on vacation in SK. A dealer in SK would be a good thing too but as long as they ship I'm cool with them.

CGN Sponsors preferred but I'll buy from whomever I can.

Have you considered the 62 grain fmj that PMC produces?

+1... and it's mil spec to boot... marked M855 w/ steel penetrator and green tips. The only issue would be shooting it indoors.

I don't see a reason that the PMC or AE should shoot much different than the Winchester, but the Winchester is a proven quantity.

Hell, I'd take any quality factory 62 gr. FMJ I can get my hands on...this 55 gr. crap is sh*t

Ellwood Epps has over 100 boxes of 62.gr WinUSA at 13.49/box (HOLLY SH*T)

10 boxes (200 rounds) shipped UPS is $173.35

BigUglyMan, Your new Swissarms rifle (if its like mine), will have an odd ball 1-10 twist rate produced, as I understand it, for optimally stabilizing the SS109 round. The theory, again as I understand it, is that SS109 is a C-hair longer for its weight than a lead core 62 gr bullet and the Swiss have taken this into account. This sounds to be ass backwards cause the longer bullet should need a faster rate but this is the yarn I heard.

Of course this might all be total BS but being a BSer, I thought I'd pass it along.

Al Simmon's in Hamilton has Federal AE 62gr. at $14.75/box (WTF) $280'ish for 500 round case (not bad)

Not so. The Swiss use a 63gr bullet, but it lacks a penetrator and is therefore shorter than a NATO SS109 bullet. Their rifles are optimized for the Swiss bullet.
In any event we stock the PMC M855 ammo for $599/1000 and the RUAG GP90 amm for $850/1000

Shorter bullet, slower twist, now that does make sense. Thanx for the explanation redleg.
