Details
It’s too easy to rip through ammo with an AR-pattern rifle. Let’s all admit it: no matter how expensive of optics and accessories we mount on our rifles, we really just want nothing more than to go cyclic at the end of the range session.
Independence 55 grain FMJBT may not exactly be the cartridge of choice for mag dump. This rocket-hot load of 5.56X45mm is well suited for punching little holes into all kinds of things. This is XM193 ammunition which means it is functionally identical to MIL-SPEC M193 but did not make the cut to be labeled MIL-SPEC for whatever reason.
Accuracy is trump to all other factors in shooting, period. This is why both MIL-SPEC 5.56X45mm NATO standard issue loadings are boat tail variety. These are designed to increase the ballistic coefficient and create a more stable flight. The military has long stressed the importance of consistent shot placement over all other factors, including larger chamberings. The M193 offers the best marriage of high accuracy with fragmentation over the infamous “green tip” M855. While offering improved penetration due to a steel core, the differences in all other factors are fairly minimal between the two.
This is an excellent opportunity to buy first-rate ammunition in bulk to feed your hungry M4, Tavor, or whatever else is in your stable. It is a highly accurate load which moves with great swiftness and can be purchased in bulk.

I have shot this ammunition on two different occasions and both times I had numerous blown primers. The first time I thought it was a bad batch and shot them again about a year later with the same result (a different batch). Serious overpressure issues here and potentially dangerous.

I have been shooting Independence M193 for a while now (years) and absolutely love the stuff. It is the hottest commercial M193 load available, with 150+ fps more velocity than any other M193 I've ever found. It is also highly accurate and functions flawlessly in all of my 5.56 ARs. ( DDM4 V9, Bushmaster Varminter, M&P15 and PSA AR pistol)
I have seen reviews of blown primer issues but I believe that is more the result of certain rifles/chambers not liking the high pressure as this is a very hot 5.56 load. (Posted on 10/24/2016)

Have had pretty good luck with this ammo for quite some time. Suppose it's only fitting that a bad experience will present and it did with this Independence 5.56 ammo. Four magazines deep, five blown primers and some duds. There may have been more blown primers but I only found five caps jammed in my lower (preventing trigger manipulation). Again, first time with this ammo but like any QC failure it will be hard to forget. (Posted on 7/25/2016)

I got a good bit of this when it was going for around $165ish.

Anything probably will. (Posted on 6/28/2016)

I have bought thousands of rounds of this ammo and never a problem until now. I bought 500 rounds a few months ago and every rounds primer has detached out of the brass casing. The problem is the primers are jamming the gun and even going into the trigger housings to clog the trigger. Hopefully it was just a bad batch. (Posted on 6/19/2016)

As a college students I don't have the luxury to buy nice ammo so I decided to go for this. I got to say it worked flawlessly though my Daniel Defense! The rifle is virtually new and so I was convinced that the rife would not give trouble. Shot through a couple hundred rounds and no failures. I was using iron sights and my sight is not the best, however, I impressed myself with my 50 yard grouping. The rounds are extremely good price for the quality when I cleaned my rifle it wasn't as dirty as I expected. Again I totally recommend this round for some fun day at the range and I would trust it for home defense if its needed. (Posted on 5/19/2016)

First time I took out my 10.5" pistol, the gun had 5 or 6 feeding issues (out of 150 or so round). On the last one, I saw what was going on, the primer cap from the previously fired round had lodged itself in the feed ramps and was preventing the next round from chambering. I switched over to some ammo my dad had, and it shot probably 300 rounds of that with no issue. (Posted on 5/3/2016)

I bought these rounds to be the first through my new Spikes Tactical ST-15 Crusader (1:7 twist). This was my first time ordering ammunition online. Service was fantastic and as promised, received my order on time. Feeds, fires and ejects with no issues through the first two hundred rounds. Getting three round groups of approx. 1-1/2" at 100 yards. Don't know that I would say that this is a very clean ammunition, but I would definitely say that it is a great ammunition for target shooting. Told a friend of mine about BA, he called on a Wednesday morning and had his order Thursday evening. BA has two more solid customers now! I will definitely order again. (Posted on 2/15/2016)

My first purchase of this ammo was from the retail gun shop where I bought my Colt AR 15. The 500 rounds I purchased at the store was more that twice as much as what I paid at Bulk Ammo. In fairness it was over a year ago and ammo and guns were selling at a premium. I shot 350 rounds of the gun store ammo with no problems, so when I saw this price for 500 rounds I jumped at it. Its reliable and I have had no accuracy problems. This is my first buy here and the delivery was fast . I will purchase all my ammo here, prices are unbeatable at Bulk Ammo. (Posted on 2/10/2015)

I bought this ammo on sale so the price was good. I was using a Mossberg predator bolt action 5.56. Ammo was clean. No jams/misfires. Groupings were adequate but greater than 1.5". Couldnt really seem to get a good grouping. Maybe the gun doesnt like this ammo since others seemed to have good results. I will try in some of my ARS. I like the PMC XTAC 55g better. Sub 1".
As far as Bulk Ammo.... AWESOME! First time buyer. Received the shipment 2 days later. Nicely packaged. I will definately buy from them again! They are in my favorites website list. (Posted on 5/21/2014)

Have shot a few hundred rounds of this through my LE 6920. No problems at all. Ammo shoots great with good groupings. Have read a lot of reviews on it jamming and running "dirty". Have yet to see those problems. Also Bulk ammo is where I will be making all of my ammo purchases from now on. Amazing customer service and great products. Thanks again Bulk Ammo!

Received this ammo very quickly, packaged very well and all ammo in excellent condition. Can't really say how much of a bargain the ammo is right now because we all know that the price of ammo is higher than it should be but Bulk Ammo is helping to bring prices down. (Posted on 8/13/2013)

Picked up a few boxes of Independence 5.56 locally and took them out to the ranch. The rounds feed well, groupings are tight at 100yds, and it's pretty inexpensive for today's prices. I'm not sure what constitutes a "bargain" now, but compared to Federal or PMC, this stuff is comparable and at least 10 cents a round cheaper. I'm not going to replace my match loads with them; but as a general purpose round for training, small game, or anything to that effect: go for it! (Posted on 5/28/2013)

Q: This page says this ammo is FMJ-BT, yet the box in the picture says FMJ only. Which is it?
Posted On: 7/21/2013 By: Paul
A: The BT feature (Boat Tail) at the base of the bullet is considered a standard with this m193 round from Independence. While the manufacturer does not include this information, the bullets will feature a boat tail for improved accuracy at longer distances. The rounds will appear and function in your rifle as a traditional FMJ round will.
