Newly manufactured by PMC, this ammunition is great for target practice and range training. It is both precision manufactured and economical serving as a great alternative to the steel cased products that are available. Each round contains a boat-tail bullet for improved long-range accuracy seated in a boxer-primed, reloadable brass casing.

I use this to supplement my training ammo allotment from my dept. I've shot 2 thousand rounds and haven't had a single problem. It's just as accurate as some of these higher end manufactures at 100 yards. Excellent buy.

Just went to an indoor range cause it's cold up here in Michigan. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is I haven't tested the reach of this ammo. My local indoor range is only 70 yards but this did fantastic at that range. Cycled perfect and was very accurate at short distance

Absolutely exceptional ammo for the price. it's cleaner than federal or Blazer brass. Of course all ammo going to leave build up. Cycles well I've shot in excess of 5000 rounds and not One bad primer, miss feed or failure to eject. I work for UPS for 10+ years Lucky gunners shipping department does an exceptional job. They protect your ammo and pack it tightly like they should. Unlike other places! I am more impressed on lucky gunners shipping and receiving department then I am with Fed Ex because I am by bias. That being said I still will be a consumer! God bless America! For all the veterans who have served, currently serving, retired and deceased...I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your service to our country and for providing the freedoms that I will never take for granted! Thank you!

I have used this ammo to break in my del-ton AR midlength build. You can't really beat it for the price. It is brass cased and shoots pretty straight as far as I can tell. (iron sights) No failure to feeds or failure to eject any rounds so far. It can be reloaded which is a plus but since it is decently priced there really is no need if you don't reload in the first place. Not to forget, lucky gunner has been an excellent site to work with.

brass and reloadable, fired 1000 rounds have 2 thousand in eserve, reloads easy, brass is uniform, I sort cases by # of time fired, maker and by weight.
This ammo gives me 1 to 1.5 inches while other brands produce 3 to 4 inches, at 125 yards from a Remmie R-15, DPMS M-4 and double star 1:8 twist.
AVOID the new Hot Shot ammo by PMC, it is loaded with a different bullet profile, different powder and is dirty and not accurate.
PMC Bronze is awsome no matter where it's made.

Q: Are the .223 and the Remington 223 cartridges interchangeable in my AR15 223/5.56? Someone, please explain the differences between the 223/223 Remington and the 5.56/223 Remington. My Wyndam AR15 shoots 5.56/.223 ammo. Can I shoot the 223Remington in it?
Posted On: 4/1/13
By: Art
A: The use of of the ".223" term is essentially short for the term ".223 Rem". Some ammunition manufacturers will include the "Rem" while others will not. The 5.56x45 NATO round will appear to be the same size as the .223, though it is a more powerful round than the .223. Since your rifle is chambered for the higher pressured round, 5.56, the .223 (Rem) round will automatically be included as a round that is safe to fire in your rifle.
However, if you rifle was chambered for only .223 Rem, you would not be able to fire 5.56 due to the higher pressure.
Both the .223 and 5.56 round will serve your rifle well.
