Where to find MK318 / Federal T556TNB1?

tj1371x · Jun 8, 2014

I can't find this stuff on gunbot.net or at PSA or G&R Tactical where I've seen it listed. Anyone have any luck finding this stuff anywhere? (It's a 62 gr OTM barrier blind round in 5.56)

I guess that's close enough. I know there are some other good barrier blind loads out there like the Speer GDs or the various bonded JSP loads, just looking for the MK318 clones like T556TNB1 or AB49.

What is a barrier blind round?
I'm not familiar with the term.

It's essentially a round that's engineered for optimal expansion and weight retention when fired through intermediate barriers like plywood, drywall, automotive steel, and windshield glass.

Windshield glass is one of the toughest intermediate barriers out there. The only thing tougher is four layers of denim.

That ammo is unobtainium right now.

This stuff should work well:
Hornady TAP Barrier 5.56 62 Grain Soft Point Ammo 8125N - a - 20 Rounds per Box
