A few I didn't see mentioned, and haven't tried. Thoughts on these?
* Fiocchi M193. Heard good feedback that this is quality, accurate bulk for the $$.
* Win M193. Ok, so their story seems to change periodically from ok to not ok over the last 15 years or so. Seems like Win ammo has issues with consistency. I've never tried their any of their 5.56 ammo, but got solid accuracy/performance with their .45 230gr FMJ and 9mm 124gr NATO pistol ammo. Pricing is close enough to the other bulk options. Good to go, or currently one to avoid?
Couple other Q's on people's bulk ammo use:
* Does anybody just stock up on M855 as your single all-purpose bulk round for training, blasting, SHTF, whatever, so that you have more consistency with a 62gr bulk load for all your general purpose use and blasting across all rifles/optics?
* For bulk ammo, are you getting better accuracy out of M855 (pick your favorite brand), or M193?
