Video Transcript:
American Eagle is part of Federal's premium line of training ammunition. It has a great reputation for reliability and consistency. Like all Federal ammo, American Eagle is made in Minnesota, here in the US. The brass primers and casings are all made in the same facility, which helps maintain a high standard of quality control.
For this test, we shot some American Eagle 165 grain in a 40 Smith & Wesson. It has a reloadable brass case, full metal jacket bullet with a lead core, and a non-corrosive primer. Our accuracy test was performed at 15 yards from a bench rest using a SIG P226. You can see from the 10-shot group that we got pretty good results. It was just a little tighter than the group we shot with 180 grain 40 pellet test.
Just as expected, there were no failures in any of our test guns. And I couldn't be happier with the overall performance we saw. Because of its accuracy, reliability, and reloadable brass cases, American Eagle is some of my favorite range and training ammunition. And even though it's part of Federal's premium line, it comes at an affordable price.

Fired over 300 rounds and found that on two occasions, with my Sig, the slide would not close and on two other rounds I had as "Stove Pipe." These rounds are OK, but I prefer Western Lawman. (Posted on 10/6/12)Performance Value Quality - impossible to beat Review by Benjamin

A great purchase all around, this truly is top of the line ammo. Yes some of the bullets are slightly dinged up, and the finish on a few of the cases here and there are slightly tarnished, but this isn't a beauty pageant. i've already run through 200 of my 1000 round purchase, and they fire consistently and cleanlyPerformance Value Quality
This is the exact same ammo my local PD runs at the range, they can't afford to be throwing JHP's downrange and they trust this ammo 100% for reliability and consistency during their training
The price, are you kidding me? Even with shipping charges included you can't even come close to this price at a local shop, buy your firearms local, buy your ammo from LuckyGunner, period (Posted on 8/13/12) - Performs like a champ! Review by Jeff

I have literally shot tens of thousands of rounds of this ammo from American Eagle and never had a single problem - ever.Value Quality Performance
If this ammo jams in your gun - buy a new gun!
The same applies for Speer Lawman though - both are top notch (and I think made by the same parent company?) (Posted on 11/15/09)

SocomRaider said: "Wanted to try them out first. Ordered a couple boxes of hard to find ammo. I already have the product two days later and it as advertised. Very happy with my purchase and look forward to buying from this company again. I also like their straightforward inventory system. If it's not on their website, they don't have it! They also list how many of a particular item is left."
Jajar7 said: "This was my first internet order for ammunition. I will definitely be a repeat and referral customer. The price was extremely reasonable and I don't think I can find anywhere that could beat the shipping cost. The order was shipped quickly and I was able to track the shipment with the tracking number you gave me. I knew exactly what day to expect my order. Thank You and I look forward to purchasing from you in the future."
