Incidentally, I keep coming across reference to the "brown tip" 5.56mm ammo but no details. I gather from the OP here that it is a 70-grain Barnes TSX loading optimised for use in very short-barrelled carbines only used by SOCOM. Some questions:
1. Does it have a SOCOM MK number, like the MK262?
2. Does it literally have a brown tip - i.e. is it painted?
3. Any data on MV in different barrel lengths?
