    5.56 Ammo Sources

    Good Morning Gents,

    I'm looking to get some quality 5.56/223 ammo (without getting raped) for an upcoming Larry Vicker Class. I'm looking in the area of 2-3 thousand rounds delivered to Connecticut. Any suggestions??? Thanks for your help & advise.

    You could try BH blue box from Kiser Ammo or PMC Bronze from the Armory.

    Their description of PMC bronze is that it's made to M193 spec.... it really is not.

    I purchased 1K of 5.56 from the Hunting Shack for the EAG class I just took. Delivery took longer than originally quoted, but the ammo was of good quality with zero failures of any kind and cost me about $260 delivered. That was ordered in like June or July, so I'm sure prices have gone up since then, but it's worth a check.

    True! If you run it thru carbines it should be fine.... and that's what most of us shoot. I'd certainly run it for a class if it was priced good.

    But it does short stroke in rifles. GotM4 mentioned this.... I didn't believe him. So I tried a few boxes, and he was right.

    I disagree, it said PMC right on the box so right there you know it was probably lower quality than Wolf.
