TrackingPoint is expanding into the semi-auto realm with the new TrackingPoint 500 Series ARs, announced for 2014. Built upon the Daniel Defense DDM4 V7, the TrackingPoint AR utilizes the same Tag Track Xact technology as the bolt-action rifle scopes, but in a smaller frame. This allows for the user to make marked shots on targets traveling up to 10 mph out to 500 yards and utilize 2-12x magnification. Because of the integrated nature of the TrackingPoint system, it will only be available as a complete rifle w/ scope.
The rifles will be offered in offered in 7.62, .300 BLK, and 5.56 calibers. They are currently taking pre-orders. Delivery starts October 2014.

will this take there propietry loaded ammo like the other ones or can u use any 5.56 ammo and zero it
That’s a great question.
I asked the very same thing to the rep I talked to on the show floor, and I was told that there probably won’t be as much of a restriction ammunition wise when compared to the bolt-action rifles. I’m also not sure how sure the rep was, so I’ll call this one a maybe on the any ammo issue.
