These are great for the price, I picked up more on a recent sale. Good 5.56, combat accurate, but like other 5.56 55 grain not meant for precision shooting. good groups. But again probably the best out there for the price.
Michael V.
Ammo fires well and is as accurate as standard 55 gn. 5.56. The packaging is poorly designed and has to be handled with care. 5 out of 6 box's came apart in my range bag. Again good ammo crappy packaging.
