Great plinker/ informal target ammo. Holds 1"-1.5" @ 100 yds. from my DPMS 16" bull barrel AR. Perfect feed & ejection plus much cleaner than some foreign ammo I've used.

By Joe

from Naperville, IL

Good price, nice brass to reload. I consistently shot .5-.70" 5 shot groups out of my 700 at 100 meters and .80-1.1" 3 shot groups out of my AR-Rock River at 100 meters. No issues at all. Now there is "better" Ammunition out there but it will cost 2-4X's more. I just picked up a case of 1000 for training over the winter.

Every box was new brass, no reused. Shot tight enough group for me, but more importantly, zero misfires or issues.

By WILLIAM

from FULTON, MO

*NOTE* Using this ammo in Saiga 5.56 (Russian AK in 5.56)Fed fine, fired fine, but pattern was HORRIBLE. Was getting 3-5 inch 100 yard groupings compared to 2-3 with brown bear and 1.5-2 with Hornady 55gr. I think its just the rifle since others report good things.

By Adam

from Essex Junction, VT

Shot a few boxes of this ammo last weekend with my DPMS AP4- overall the consistency and quality was what I expected. I would note that this ammo burns and fires MUCH cleaner than some other budget ammo I've used. For the price, I'll be buying more.

By Steven

from Lawton, OK

I like this ammo, shoots decently with my SW MP15 w/eotech 552. Only problem I have is the 2 or 3 rounds out of 20 misfeeds and the bullet gets pushed into the star chamber and gets pushed back into the casing. Scares the crap out me to try and get it out of the star chamber. Just watch out for this.

By Georgie

from Tarpon Springs, FL

Next to Winchester ammo these are the best .223's I have ever used! They feed well in both my Mini-14 and my AR rifle. No primer failures and no breaking off at the tip of the bullet. Dependable ammunition in this hunter's opinion.

By Joe

from Crockett, Tx

This was the first ammo I bought for my new R.R. 1-8 twist. It had no malfunctions and shot around 1MOA which surprised me as it was only 55gr out of the 1-8 twist. Shoots good on paper and smaller pigs which have overrun East Texas. Did I mention that the price was also great. A 1-9 twist might work better with it. Hope this helps

By mike

from Ft Sill, ok

For the money, there is no better load. It is very accurate and always consistent. You can easily get 1 inch groups at 300 meters with this stuff. There is one down side- the bullets themselves are not always perfect--- some have a flat tip and some have a round tip. However, at 300 meters, this did not seem to make any difference. Buy this stuff, you won't be disappointed.

By John

from CA, CA

I have used this brand quite a bit, but I did not realize how good it was until I shot side by side groups comparing it to other name brand ammo. Without a doubt, my gun shoots this product much better than the American Eagle red box 223 and slightly better than the Winchester white box 223.
