Hey all,
My AR-15 in a Colt HBAR with the 1:7 twist, so it really likes 62 grain rounds best. Problem is, there's not alot of less-expensive 62 grain ammo out there. Herters does make a 62 grain .223 with steel casings. I was going to pick some up at Cabelas, but the sales guy in the firearms area said steel case ammo would "tear up" an AR-15.
Sounds a bit off to me, but I have heard stranger things. Any validity to this? Opinions? Thanks for the input.
