400 Rounds of 5.56x45 Ammo by Federal American Eagle in Ammo Can - 55gr FMJ

What does it mean to be prepared? It means you have a plan in place for the worst case scenario – when “SHTF,” as the prepper community endearingly calls it. Now, we hope the S never does HTF, but if it ever does then we also hope you have the supplies you need to weather the storm.

5.56x45 ammo is a crucial supply indeed. These 400 rounds of 5.56 are sealed up in a brand new military-style .30 caliber ammo can, so they’re going to stay fresh and uncorroded pretty much indefinitely so long as you store them somewhere cool and dry. Of course, if you’re prepping by working on your aim, you can crack open this reusable can the day it arrives at your doorstep as well!

The ammo itself is American-made, and exactly the same quality as the 5.56 which the U.S. Army would fire at the range and in battle. Each cartridge sports a simple 55 grain nonmagnetic full metal projectile, loaded to a conventional muzzle velocity of 3,165 fps. This non-corrosive ammo is loaded with virgin brass cases for clean, reliable feeding and extraction. It is reloadable, and the annealing scars the cases bear are proof they have been made more durable via heat treatment.
