Norinco 5.56 55gr 1600 packs

Why not?

90% of thie issues reported with this ammo are form bolt action users. this ammo is 5.56 and not the commercial .223 spec. i have seen 2 friends use my ammo in bolt guns with extraction issues. i throw it in my ar's and its good to go

My bolt action Tikka WOULD NOT close with norinco ammo. Pretty BS if you ask me.

Ask tikka why they use a commercial size and not the standard 5.56? You will run into this problem with lots of surplus ammo. Your rifle was made for the finest brass and likely handloads

Considering it is stamped .223, not 5.56, maybe you should ask norinco why their ammo doesnt fit?

Makes an epic fireball...

A guy beside me yesterday was shooting it through his short barreled Swiss and it made a HUGE fireball...

I've shot close to 2600 rounds of this ammunition and I haven't had any problems whatsoever. It is noticeably hotter than the standard MFS ammunition that I regularily shoot, but much cleaner. I've put it through both my ACR and my Tavor with 100% reliability.

Shot around 100 rounds through my DD M4 with out issues, and today 60 rounds through SU-16 again no issues.

Prints about inch and half at 50 yards using vortex strikefire from bench.
