Put almost 800 rnds through my Smith&Wesson AR15, only had a handful of duds. Very solid, accurate shot with these rnds. My first order of 1000 rnds and I couldn't be happier! (Posted on 11/22/11)

AMMO: I ran 500 rounds through a 16"bbl Bushmaster at a Tactical Patrol Rifle School last weekend without a single performance issue. The tempo of the school was fast-paced round count at distances to 300 meters.

DELIVERY: Prompt!! I hate waiting and certainly was impressed with the immediate shipping and delivery of BADC. Nice job!

PRICE: Comparable to other similar quality ammunition. (Posted on 8/8/11)

I've used this ammo within the past year. I use it in my RRA AR15 and my Savage Predator. Both shoot much better than I thought it would at 200 yds hitting whatever I aim at. It does however shoots better in my Savage than the AR maybe because it's a bolt action. (Posted on 6/28/11)

Good product with super fast shipping and super high quality customer service. I ordered ahead of time for a series of rifle courses I was teaching. I'm not kidding when I say the ammo was going to arrive TOO SOON. I was out of town teaching when I got an email saying the ammo would be delivered. I made a call to customer service and in no time had confirmation that they would be holding my shipment till I got back in town.

Great job BulkAmmo! I'll be ordering again! (Posted on 6/3/11)

Q: Is the bullet lead filled or steel. Most indoor ranges won't allow steel.

Posted On: 2/16/12 By: Kurt Miller

A: This PMC .223 Rem ammo has a lead core projectile with a copper jacket.

Q: Is this brass reloadable?

Posted On: 10/21/11 By: Tradd

A: Yes, this PMC .223 brass is reloadable.

Q: wondering how this ammo is compared to wolf, bear, etc....is it cleaner, more accurate, and able to be reloaded?

Posted On: 10/21/11 By: rob

A: PMC brass can be reloaded, and you might notice a slight improvement in cleanliness or accuracy compared to Wolf ammo.

Q: Is this ammo reloadable?

Posted On: 10/21/11 By: Anonymous

A: Yes, this PMC ammo is loaded with brass cases that can be reloaded.

Q: Is this a good bullet weight for a 1:8 twist 20" AR-15? I am not sure if I should go heavier.

Posted On: 10/20/11 By: David

A: Your 1/8 twist AR-15 will stabilize practically any projectile that will fit in the magazine, even at longer distances.

Q: Will this round work in a 1 in 9 twist barrel?

Posted On: 10/19/11 By: Anonymous

A: Yes, this round will stabilize in a 1/9 twist barrel to the stated maximum effective range of the firearm.

Q: I have a 5.56 AR. I keep on hearing conflicting statements that if it is a 5.56, that is all you can shoot, but if it is a .223, then you can shoot both. What exactly is the difference?

Posted On: 10/17/11 By: Ed

A: The truth is the opposite of what you stated. 5.56 chambers are sized to allow the relief of pressure as the weapon is fired, while .223 chambers are not. Combine these two with the fact that 5.56 ammo is loaded hotter than .223 Remington, and you have a situation in which a 5.56 chamber is safe to fire both types of ammo, but 5.56 ammo fired in a .223 chamber can result in unsafe pressures.

Q: Great ammo I use it often... What bulk discounts do you offer for 4-5 cases?

Posted On: 10/7/11 By: John

A: This is the best price we can offer at these amounts. We do offer significant discounts on purchases of $25,000 or more.

Q: I have read that the brass used for these rounds may not be suited for reloading numerous times due to thinness of the cases. Is this another internet rumor? How do these cases compare to Federal, Remington, etc..

Posted On: 9/30/11 By: Anonymous

A: Compared to Lake City brass, practically all .223 Rem brass is not as durable for reloading. However, this PMC brass is quite good and most competent reloaders can achieve a good number of reloads from it.

Q: Do you ship this to California?

Posted On: 9/30/11 By: Rick

A: Yes - see the "Terms of Sale" link at the bottom of the page for more information.

Q: Is there any kind of shelf life on ammunition? I have heard that there is not but I would think that the chances of hangfires or missfires would increase with time. Im not sure how fast I would get through 1000 rounds.

Posted On: 9/28/11 By: Dan

A: Unless it takes you many decades or even centuries to fire this ammunition, you are not likely to encounter misfires when firing it in a serviceable rifle.

Q: Can you explain the benefits of BT ammo?

Posted On: 9/28/11 By: Gray

A: Boat-tailed bullets have a higher ballistic coefficient, meaning that they retain more velocity and energy at range, drop less, are affected by wind less, and have a greater maximum effective range.

Q: what is the application for boat tail ammunition versus standard full metal jacket?

Posted On: 9/27/11 By: Jose

A: The "boat tail" design reduces drag, which translates into a higher ballistic coefficient. The benefit to the end user is that the boat tailed bullet maintains higher velocities and drops less as it travels through the air.

Q: Could you tell me what the approximate velocity of this ammo is as listed by the manufacturer?

Posted On: 9/27/11 By: Brad

A: From a 24" test barrel, the muzzle velocity of this PMC Bronze 55gr .223 Rem ammo is 3200fps.
