Bulk ammo delivered next day! Shipped right from my backyard. Count was off by three but was clean. Also bought 1000 of 9 mm. Shoots like a champ!! Price was high but at least they have it . Until you reload with yourself, reload with bulkammo.com. (Posted on 4/15/13)

When i opened the box i was impressed with how clean and perfect ALL the rounds looked. After pounding 25 rounds into one nice hole at 50 yrds with iron sites out of a 16 inch barrel i was more than happy; and yes i have shot the other more exspensive ammo too for comparison

This is the second time I have bought this ammo in bulk but the first time from Bulkammo.com These guys had a better deal then the other company I got the first one from and they shipped it to me really fast. This is about the best price per round your going to find until the prices come back down, if they ever do come down. Good looking ammo and no problems with them so far. (Posted on 2/17/13)

I have ordered several lots of ammo including these, shot well in bout my Mini 14's and my AR.
Every box of ammo I have ordered was shipped quickly, fairly priced (In todays market) and shot well. What else could you possible ask for.
The added facter of knowing what is in stock and not in stock is out standing, no drilling down only to find it was not in stock....
Great Job Guys, you're doing great.

A Bag O' Fun
Review by Olde Pharte
Ammo Performance
Bargain?
Reliable?
This is basic .223 ammo that shoots well, won't foul your rifle, and is reliable. There may be a better price somewhere, but I couldn't find it. What you get is a plastic bag of loose .223 inside a sturdy cardboard box. Mine also came in an "over-box", which I didn't think necessary, but there it was. Maybe stupid Illinois ammo shipping laws?

I have gone through around 2500ish rounds with this ammo and have never had an ftf or fte. All fired from an MP15. It's plenty accurate for high fire rate shoot and move shooting. Haven't shot it past 200 yards though. (Posted on 10/16/12)

I had never used this ammo before but I used it during a rifle class. Shot about 1300 rounds in 2 days, slow and rapid fire, cold rainy conditions. Only one fail to fire, no fail to eject. Cheap, reliable ammo. (Posted on 11/6/11)

Q: Are theses just the caseings?

Posted On: 2/5/13 By: Tina

A: This American Eagle .223 Remington product is loaded ammunition. No "handloading" or "reloading" procedures are required. This .223 ammunition will fire in both .223 and 5.56 NATO rifles. All components from American Eagle ammunition are non corrosive. The spent casings may be saved for the reloading process if desired.
Q: Does this ammo use corrosive powder?

Posted On: 11/8/12 By: Tim

A: American Eagle loads this, and their other products with non corrosive powder and primers. Their brass is boxer primed and great for reloading. The bullets used for this .223 Rem ammo feature a boat tail design for improved accuracy.
Q: What does boat tail mean ? How does it differ from FMJ ?

Posted On: 10/10/12 By: Kevin

A: The "boat tail" is the design at the base of the bullet; this is the portion of the bullet we do not see when it is seated into the brass. The boat tail feature is a property of a full metal jacket bullet. The purpose behind this design is used to improve bullet flight and keep it on track to its intended target. This American Eagle ammo from Federal is considered to be full metal jacket.
Q: Is this ammo made in the USA?

Posted On: 9/1/12 By: Kristi

A: Yes, it is. This product (as well as the rest of the American Eagle line of product) is made in Anoka, Minnesota. Our team has visited this plant on a few occasions and can attest to the quality of the process and the results (we've also shot a lot of it).
