Which of the these brands should I stock , the Silver Bear 62gr HP .223 or Wolf FMJ 62gr FMJ ? I will be using it mostly for plinking and I was thinking in buying around 2000 rds , because of the price... !!! Has anybody used the Silver Bear ? Is it smoother that the steel coated Wolf ? I have not shot my AR-15 yet (brand spanking new) and I need to start piling up some ammo without breaking the bank... Thanks very much josey88

I like both but the silver bear shoots tighter groups for me.

Are any of you guys shooting the Silver Bear through a 1/7 barrel?

There was another post in which the user stated Silver Bear was key holing targets through his Colt 1/7 barrel.

I was at the gun store the other day and they had cases of 700 rounds for $257.95.

Just for plinking my vote goes for the cheapest of the two...:D

I've fired several thousand 55gr and 62gr silver bear through a 1/7 without issue.
