Video Transcript:
Federal is one of the most recognized names in American-made ammo, and for good reason. They've been making ammunition for 90 years, and have established a reputation for consistency and reliability.
One of Federal's most popular products is their American Eagle 55 grain 223 Remington load, which Federal calls AE223. It's manufactured with a reloadable brass case, a lead core projectile with a copper jacket, and a non-corrosive primer. It also offers features not normally seen on commercial .223 ammo, like a crimp around the primer and sealants to prevent moisture intrusion.
This is an excellent choice for .223 ammunition. It will be stable and accurate from any twist rate that is common to these rifles. This is not 5.56mm ammo, but it was loaded hot enough to cycle every rifle we tested, even the mil-spec rifles, without any malfunctions. Basically, it's one type of ammunition that you can count on to be safe and reliable in any .223 or 5.56 rifle you own, whether it's a semi-auto or a bolt action rifle.
There are a lot of good reasons to buy AE223. Frankly, it's one of the best choices you can make if you need 223 ammo. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it for any recreational use.

HardWired56 said: "Every order I place gets here in 3 days-the shipping is fast and cheap and the online availability of inventory is the best. I have bought the Lake City reman .45acp and .380-super happy with both rounds. Ok, then I buy several different types of .223/5.56 just to see how they shoot-all were as expected and good stuff. Finally I had to buy more .22longs. Got Federal, Federal Champions and Winchester. I bought 3 bricks of ammo for what I would pay for 2 around here (not counting wasted gas and time). I will order again - Great work folks!"

Their online processing is one of the best I've ever used and EVERYTHING you choose from the catalog is in stock - not to mention you'll enjoy some of the best prices available! Shipping costs were very reasonable and delivery was made lightening fast. LG communication regarding order processing and shipping status is outstanding. You can order from LG with complete confidence."
