Which would you prefer to shoot in your AR, and why?

Isn't Blue Box "remanufactured" meaning reloaded using once-fired brass while Red Box is manufactured using virgin brass? The Red Box cartridges also appear to have sealed primers while those in the Blue Box do not.Quote:

If you gave them to me for free, I would shoot them both. :D
I pick the 55 gr remanufactured because they use military brass and have the primers crimped in which is kinda hard to tell, the 55 gr FMJ also have a cannelure which is not present on the 60 grain soft points, not visible in pic - sorry.
My remanufactured ammo from Black Hills always looks shiney as new, they've done a great job on the stuff I have bought.
I have some Federal XM193 that has some black stuff on some cases, anybody know what it might be?:
