Details
This 5.56 ammo was produced to full NATO specs during the early 2000s by the Magtech/CBC facility in Brazil for the Singapore Armed Forces. Singapore is a coalition partner in the Global War on Terrorism and Singapore set the specs on this contract to be very demanding packaging this 5.56 ammo in a 50 round boxes inside of 200 round poly bags with desiccant. There are then 5 of the poly bags in a sealed m2A1 ammo can. This ammo was then stored in an air conditioned building. This ammo is being cycled out for a newer production run and as a result is brought to you at a great price point for true NATO grade military 5.56x45mm ammo.
This ammo features a sealed primer pocket and a sealed case mouth designed to prevent moisture intrusion. This ammo is brass-cased and features 55 grain bullets with a cannelure. The annealing is visible to pass military requirements similar to Lake City ammo that many AR-15 shooters are familiar with.

The Milspec Steel ammo can, complete with yellow paint i.d. markings, is pure military issue. The fact that it was mfg in the "early 2000's" is a total non-issue with me as the ammo issued in Iraq was scooped out of a cardboard drum, dumped into a plastic bag, and unceremoniously thumped onto a table (talk about "trustworthy")
This stuff is at least sealed and protected from the elements and appears to have been stored perfectly. (Posted on 9/12/2022)

Bought these and have gone through about 500 rounds with no problems whatsoever. The packing is great, 50rd boxes inside plastic bags with cardboard and foam spacers to keep things from rattling around. Fires clean and true. Very highly recommend. (Posted on 11/2/2017)

First purchase i ever made from this company and was a little concerned about being made in Brazil and being given 7 years old. Turns out I worried for nothing.

Bought this ammo for a range day with some buddies. As it was the cheapest per round. Spent at least 500 with no FTF. Had one FTE because the casing split and the extractor couldn't grip the brass. But every shot hit its mark. Will be buying another can (Posted on 7/3/2017)

I have used this ammo before with a friend who bought it. It fires just fine, but the "wow" is for customer service. I ordered this 1,000 rounds, 500 rounds of American Eagle 9mm and 525 rounds of Remington .22 LR on Thursday afternoon and it arrived the following morning. I can't get off my butt and get to a local store in that amount of time! Not to mention it would be much more expensive. The packing was excellent and the prices were very competitive. BulkAmmo has my future business. (Posted on 6/30/2017)

One of those things where you wish you hadn't even opened up the
ammo can it arrived we took it out to the farm and it literally took 5 minutes to get the lid removed from the can was that airtight after that we shot 650 rounds through an M4 with a zero failure....... lots of fun want to buy more as this is the ammo that you want to buy and squirrel away for a rainy (Posted on 5/18/2017)

Buy it or I will buy it all. Best 5.56 deal I've ever seen. Shoots 100% on par with Federal. Went through 500 with no problems and just bought another 1000. The packaging is completely airtight so this next 1000 will be put away unopened for a rainy day and I fully expect it to last years that way. (Posted on 5/14/2017)

Excellent ammo very uniform and obviously well made. This stuff is getting down out of a 20 in barrel, very accurate groups very consistent ejection. Only thing I can think of that would be a negative is you have more felt recoil versus any 223 out there and a bit more the some 556. All in all this ammo will definitely reach out and touch something. (Posted on 5/6/2017)
