Details
This bulk buy of 5.56mm NATO rounds not only gives you ammo to shoot, but a military-grade steel box to stash it in! These rounds from Federal are manufactured to the M855 standard, which has been in use with the United States military for decades. As such, each round fires a 62-grain full metal jacket projectile with a boat-tail rear (FMJBT) and mild penetrating tip; the steel tip is colored green for easy identification.
The FMJBT's tapered rear gives it slick drag resistance, while its toothed cannelure locks the bullet into its crimp in order to preserve accuracy. Both of these features help tighten groups downrange and deliver excellent results on target. Other components include non-corrosive Boxer primers which are accompanied with moisture-repelling sealant when they are loaded into reloadable brass casings. Each case is annealed, or heat-treated, at the neck and shoulder for improved flexibility which resists splitting while yielding consistent chamber pressures.
Each 800-round purchase includes a steel ammo can which includes a carry handle, secure clasp, and water-resistant gasket for safe storage.
