    The X-Tac line is great ammo, the Bronze line.....not so much.

    I've launched right at 10K of XTAC downrange in the past three years, and maybe 2K of Bronze.

    No malfunctions at all.

    But we were shooting carbine gassed Colts...

    The owner of PMC lives in America, his sister lives on Korea and works at/or owns, cant remember the factory up there producing PMC ammo.

    The one thing those little suckers can't do is put a bullet in straight.

    I measured a box of Q3131a1 (korean) and the runout was no less than .007" on every single round in the box.

    Good running ammo, and not too hot... but don't roll one on the counter top and look at it. You'll get sea sick!

    I like PMC. I only have a couple hundred rounds left. I have had no issues with it at all. If only the price were lower, but that is another story.

    Definitely good to go.

    I prefer the 55gr X-TAC over Federal XM193 and the 55gr PMC Bronze is the best 55gr .223 I've had the pleasure of shooting.

    As for the factory ammo, it's almost all I've shot the past two years and never had a cartridge-related issue.
    I'm a big LC fan too. The only LC brass I have has been crimped. It's a PITA.
    BTW what do you think about Winchester brass? I have a nephew who works there. He get's me 10 boxes of ammo a month at $8.50 a box. Haven't shot any yet so I haven't reloaded any. Just wondering if the cases are as thick as LC brass.
