Video Transcript:
American Eagle is Federal's top of the line 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 the same facility, which helps maintain a high standard of quality control.
For this review, we ran through a couple of boxes of American Eagle 180 grain, and 40 Smith and Wesson. This ammo features a reloadable brass case, full metal jacket bullet with a lead core and a non-corrosive primer. For our accuracy test, we fired a 10-shot group at 15 yards with a SIG P226 and got pretty good results. Kind of looks like a demented smiley face or something. Just as expected, it was really reliable, and we had no failures in any of our test guns.
I consider American Eagle to be some of the most dependable range ammo available. It's accurate, reliable, the brass is great for reloading, and even though it's part of Federal's Premium line of ammo, it's still pretty affordable.

Very consistent and accurate rounds. As others have stated, it shoots flawlessly every time. It may cost a little more, but after firing the cheaper stuff, you'll come back to American Eagle (Posted on 2/10/12)Performance Value Quality - Perfect for range training! Review by Bulls-i

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)

I have used them on at least four occasions and always the same great service. If only there were more online dealers who took as great care with their customers would make things so much simpler thanks gunner"
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!"
