Is it $399 per 420 Rounds? Or does 1 can mean 1 thousand rounds?

Almost $1 a round for FMJ bulk .223??

Must be a typo.

 

[t_102]

Almost $1 a round for FMJ bulk .223??

Must be a typo.

With tax it'll be $1.07 for a round.

I think it's a typo. $399 for a 1000x Can makes more sense.

As stated:

This ammunition is packaged per 420 rounds on stripper clips in a metal ammunition can.

Retail pricing on this item (cat #XM855LC1) is $399.00 + taxes per can.

That's $399.00 per 420 rounds, and no, T_102, that is not a typo.

This is not standard factory-grade .223 Rem ammunition, but military-grade 5.56 NATO FMJ M855 rounds, much harder to find.

Green Tips M855??

 

[Harrier .45]

Green Tips M855??

That is correct. This is green-tipped M855 ammunition.

This stuff is awesome

 

[Harrier .45]

This stuff is awesome

That is exactly the same ammunition. Thank you TV-PressPass.

 

[t_102]

Please educate me on this, is the specs different between the PMC M855 and Federal M855? Or would they preform quite similarly?

Is it REALLY twice as good as the regular bulk Fed .223? I mean that's essentially how much extra you're paying. What makes it that much better? More accurate? Forgive my ignorance.

 

[t_102]

Your paying to be using the same ammo the military uses. When this stuff hit ballistic steel targets, the steel core inside it sparks up like a M#THER F####R.

Green tip ammo is generally not permitted at three gun matches that use steel....keep that in mind

 

[martinjozwa]

plus it probably has crimped and sealed primers, this stuff lasts forever in storage and is in huge demand in the states. suprised it made it all the way up here, if i was shooting 556, i woudl have gotten a can for a JIC scenario

Not worth a buck a round but it is great ammo. Lake City produces quality munitions.

Bulk .223 Rem / 5.56 NATO ammunition availale

I wonder why some dealers were able to do away with $0.4 a pop a year ago with PMC XTac.

 

[luke s]

Good stuff but 3x the price of norinco

 

[Dsiwy]

I just bought a can of 480rds for $199.99 "guess I better stock up if the new price doubled"

I just bought a can of 480rds for $199.99 "guess I better stock up if the new price doubled"

I bought some M855 back then when they were $0.4 a pop and plinked them away just like .22s

Wish those PMC XTAC comes back at the same old prices

Another dealer shell this 219$ when in stock... So at 399 this is dry rape!
