I recently started purchasing bulk boxes of 5.56 tracer and was all excited to start stuffing it into Pmags! So I got about 20 mags loaded and realized, HEY dummy you have no idea what the heck you are doing!! Obviously I am not trying to imitate a mini gun or "other" type of weapon that fires at a high rate of speed but from what little I do know tracers are loaded between every 2-3 rounds of "standard ammo.
My question is, how do you guys load it, if at all? Do you stagger them between M855? Do you load a full mag of tracers and call it good? Or do you even see a practical use for tracer in 5.56 since most tracers rounds are used to "walk" your rounds onto your target correct? Or for night ops so you can see what the bullet trajectory is? Obviously the rate of fire for a non class 3 weapon or civii available AR is significantly less. I have probably 800 rounds of tracer and I would think that there is a very practical purpose for them at some point!! SHTF etc etc........ Your "non confrontational" opinion is appreciated!!!!!
