PMC X-TAC 556 NATO 55 Grain Full Metal Jacket Boat Tail ammunition is purpose-built for military, law enforcement, and serious rifle operators who demand reliability under field conditions. The X-TAC line represents decades of PMC's commitment to manufacturing ammunition to the exacting specifications required by professional end-users worldwide. Each round delivers consistent performance with a muzzle velocity of 3,270 feet per second, providing the velocity needed for effective terminal ballistics while maintaining controllable recoil characteristics in intermediate-length platforms.
The 55-grain full metal jacket boat tail projectile offers several performance advantages in duty and training applications. The boat tail design minimizes drag and supports flatter trajectories at extended ranges, while the full metal jacket construction ensures reliable feeding through semi-automatic and select-fire platforms without fouling or copper buildup typical of softer projectile designs. This ammunition is produced to NATO standards, making it compatible with military-pattern AR-15 and M16-variant platforms worldwide. The 20-round per box packaging allows for standardized magazine loading and efficient field organization during patrol duty, training cycles, or range qualification courses.
PMC X-TAC 556 NATO ammunition serves operators conducting patrol training, qualification events, and transition drills where consistent velocity and reliable function are non-negotiable. The full metal jacket construction makes this round suitable for steel-target facilities and training environments where jacket separation or splatter is a safety concern. Agencies and units conducting volume range training benefit from the consistency and cost-effectiveness of PMC's manufacturing process, which eliminates the variability that can occur with hand-loaded or remanufactured rounds.
