PMC X-TAC Ammunition From GunMag Warehouse: Reliability and Affordability in Every Round

September 15, 2024 by Guy McCardle, Jr. Leave a Comment

X tac ammo

When it comes to finding a high-performance round for training, target practice, or even duty use, PMC X-TAC Ammunition is a name that consistently delivers. Manufactured to military standards and boasting a solid reputation among professional shooters and hobbyists alike, the PMC X-TAC line offers reliability, accuracy, and affordability in a market full of options.

For my review today, my friends at gunmagwarehouse.com sent me 200 rounds of their PCM X-TAC 5.56x45mm 55-grain full metal jacket boat tail (FMJBT) ammunition.

Let’s break down what makes this ammo worth considering for your next range day or tactical loadout.

Overview of PMC X-TAC

PMC (Precision Made Cartridges) is a South Korean company that is well-regarded for producing consistent, military-spec ammunition that is affordable without sacrificing quality. The X-TAC line, available in calibers like 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington (among others), is engineered for reliable function in semi-automatic and full-automatic firearms, making it a go-to choice for AR-15 enthusiasts, law enforcement officers, and tactical operators.

PMC ensures that every round in the X-TAC line meets or exceeds NATO standards (M855, M193), and shooters have come to rely on this consistency. The X-TAC ammo is also non-corrosive and features boxer-primed brass cases, which is ideal for reloaders looking to squeeze extra value out of their spent casings.

Performance and Reliability

One of the first things you’ll notice when shooting PMC X-TAC is its dependable performance. The ammo consistently cycles in a wide range of firearms, from AR-15 platforms to SCARs and other modern sporting rifles. Even under rapid fire or sustained strings of shots, you’ll find minimal issues with jams or malfunctions (I experienced zero). This is particularly important for those training for real-world scenarios or competitive shooting events where reliability is non-negotiable.

In terms of accuracy, the X-TAC line holds its own. While it might not boast match-grade precision, it’s more than capable of delivering solid groups at typical engagement ranges. Whether you’re punching paper at 100 yards or training for defensive scenarios, the rounds perform admirably with predictable ballistics.

Key Features

  • Mil-Spec Manufacturing: Built to NATO specifications, ensuring compatibility with military and law enforcement firearms.
  • Boxer-Primed, Reloadable Brass: Ideal for those who want to reload their own ammo, offering extra value in each purchase.
  • Non-Corrosive: Safe to shoot and store over long periods, which is a must for preppers and stockpilers.
  • Affordable: PMC X-TAC offers quality without breaking the bank, making it an attractive option for high-volume shooters. As of today’s writing, the price for a box of 2o cartridges is just $9.99. 

Real-World Applications

In tactical and survival scenarios, I see the PMC X-TAC as a dependable choice. Whether stocking up for emergency preparedness or just looking for reliable range ammo, the X-TAC line is built to perform. For those in the law enforcement or security sector, having ammunition that you can count on in critical situations is a must, and PMC X-TAC rounds won’t disappoint.

The X-TAC 5.56 NATO round, with its 55-grain full metal jacket (FMJ) bullet, is particularly popular. It’s designed to mimic military ballistics, so you can expect the same performance you’d see with issued ammo in a military training environment.

Final Thoughts

When it comes to PMC X-TAC Ammunition, reliability and affordability are the name of the game. For those looking for dependable performance without the premium price tag, PMC X-TAC is an excellent choice. Whether you’re a weekend warrior, law enforcement officer, or someone stocking up for whatever the future may bring, this ammo gives you the confidence to know that when you pull the trigger, it’s going to perform.

For shooters who demand a no-nonsense round that works, PMC X-TAC 5.56 delivers. Head on over to gunmagwarehouse.com and pick up a few boxes at $9.99 each for a box of 20. At that price, you can’t go wrong.
