Hey all, just snagged by first 223/5.56 rifle. Looking for either

A) what ammo has been the most accurate for you that can be bought in bulk
B) who has the best deals on bulk preferably in calgary, or free shipping to calgary

This will be in a bolt gun btw

thank you for your expertise :)
 
Honestly it will depend on what ammo your gun likes as each gun is different, and it can vary from lot number to lot number, even. So you'll have to buy a few brands and play. :) Personally I find gotenda has the best prices on ammo but YMMV. Some have had poor experiences with them.
 
If you want a mild 223 load, I've had really good luck with Fed AR223 55gr bulk packs. It's a solid 1.5-2 MOA out of my XCR-L

If you want in a 5.56 pressure, try PMC 62gr green tip. Worked quite well for my last service rifle match. I was just finishing up the last of a batch and I was expecting bad results but I was pleasantly surprised.
 
I've not found bulk 5.56/.223 in Calgary that was reasonably priced so I unfortunately am still ordering from stores like Tenda, FOC, and SFRC or whomever has the best pricing. If you don't have a stockpile of it, The Shooting Edge and Calgary Shooting Center both have somewhat reasonable prices.
 
Saw a stack of Federal 223 ammo at ATRS last week. Didn't check the price as I have a ton of it already, but might be worth a call to check when they re-open.
