Very pleased with the Federal ammo. I fired 100 flawless rounds at the range through a new Bushmaster AR 15 & it really performed. Both the ammo & the AR.
Some cheaper ammo can leave your gun dirty, but federal was so clean.
Fastest service I've had too. Thanks Bulk Ammo. (Posted on 9/14/2014)

The 55gr. 1-9 twist this ammo hits it's mark OK . Shoots fine at rapid fire. I broke in a new AR with this and at 300 meters I was hiting in 3 to 5 inch groups with a 100 rds.
Seems to be fairly clean in the burn. (Posted on 9/11/2014)

I specifically bought Federal American Eagle 55 gr fmj because I've used it before. It's not the cheapest ammo there is. It's not the most accurate ammo there is. It groups almost as well for me as ammo that cost 3 times as much. I've never had a misfire and it doesn't crap up my gun excessively. It's the cheapest good ammo I've used. (Posted on 6/30/2014)

Q: How much cost a 500 count box of american eagle AR 5.56 cost at this time ?
Posted On: 1/13/2021 By: Gordon Bass
A: Thank you for reaching out Gordon! We'll update this ammo's price tag as soon as we get more in stock.
Q: what is the feet per second on this American eagle 55 gr fmj
Posted On: 7/21/2014 By: mike
A: Hello Mike,
These 55gr. FMJ rounds by Federal have a muzzle velocity of 3240 fps. They make excellent target rounds for your .223 firearm.
Q: Is this steel jacket or core (magnetic)?
Posted On: 5/28/2014 By: JR
A: Hello,
These 55gr. FMJ rounds by Federal in .223 have a lead core, copper jacket, and brass case. They are non-magnetic and will not attract a magnet.
Q: Where is this made?
Posted On: 4/15/2014 By: george
A: Hello George,
These 55gr. FMJ rounds by Federal in .223 are made in the USA. They will function great in any firearm chambered in .223.
Q: is this ammuntion reloadable?
Posted On: 1/12/2013 By: chris
A: This Federal American Eagle 223 Rem ammo is reloadable. The brass is factory new and boxer primed for reloading. All components used are non corrosive.
Q: Like most ARs (from what I hear/read) my gun doesn't like steel cased ammo or lacquer coated ammo. Given these constrictions, what would be your suggestion more ammo to buy in bulk and store?
Thanks!
Posted On: 9/28/2011 By: Kevin
A: If your rifle only shoots reliably with brass cased ammo, this American Eagle ammo would be a great choice. It is American made, to the highest quality standards.
