Customer Reviews

  • Nate said:

    The ammo itself LOOKS beautiful compared to Lake City penetrators but I have not shot it yet so I can't comment on that. I paid more per round, but that is just the market, not Ammo.com.

  • Bigthiss said:

    Great ammunition for the price. I used to buy the federal loose bulk ammo in 500 and 1000 but there were always at least 10-20 that were either faulty loads or misfired. This ammo is hands down the best for the price that I have purchased and shot. Highly recommend!!

  • Josh said:

    Had two days of rifle training scheduled with a paid group. Both training classes cost around $1,000 for both days so the issue is when you pay for training you need ammo that will perform so that way you don't have to worry about missing out on what you've already paid for and this ammo did that! Not one misfire out of every round of the thousand purchased. Nice to be able to still find quality products out here.

  • Kyle said:

    I've used about 200 rounds and it works flawlessly.

  • Just a guy ~ said:

    This is my favorite 5.56 cartridge, hands down. Every component is top quality & PMC doesn’t cut corners. I’ve shot them all and this is the most accurate & reliable 5.56 factory cartridge. I prefer the 193 - wish it was 62 or 69 grains… The brass is excellent & should absolutely be kept for reloads (I safely get 3 reloads per). A small shop by me sells it for $8.99 a box in 2023… That’s a steal. Have fun & remember that firearms safety is 100% on us.

  • Ron said:

    I like PMC Ammo the 5.56X45mmNato is what I shoot. Great for range, self protection, The reason I purchased this ammo is because of who makes this.

  • Kenneth said:

    couldnt find ammo locally so i checked the net fully expecting 2-3 wks for delivery. ordered early on a saturday morning. was on my door step monday. impressive

  • txweld said:

    All good

  • Runner said:

    PMC is a very reliable ammunition , I would not hesitate to use if for self defense. It shot well and now that I have shot it and used it all, I`ll need to order more. BTW , I use PMC in my handgun for home protection and it is as good as it gets and the 5.56x45 is as great .

  • MM said:

    I shot about 200 rounds through my brand new SIG716. The very first 3-4 rounds wouldn't feed perfectly, but I attribute this to the brand spanking new equipment. After that, rifle and ammo performed flawlessly. Not a single issue with feeding, cycling, firing, etc. At 150 yards, I had all shots within about 2-3 inches using a cheap scope and no rest. Great product and especially GREAT SERVICE! Thank you guys!!!

  • D said:

    Great customer service, placed the order last friday fully expecting not to get the order with all that is going on, you won't find a better company to deal with, as for the Ammo, top notch perfect for my use.

  • CowwFace said:

    I got this for taking to the range, went through about 100 rounds and zero duds. works perfectly in 2 AR's. We were using Red-Dot scopes, and hit what we were aiming at about 100 yrds away. I would highly recommend this ammo.

    Shoots straight, flying fast.

  • T-bag said:

    For the price and quality, never thought I'd be using green tips as target rounds. My AR hasn't jammed up yet after 100 rounds or so, which is impressive. My AR is very picky on ammo, usually can't get 30 rounds out without a couple jams. But this stuff runs like butter through my AR, with some impressive penetration to boot.

  • Mick said:

    All ammo went down range with consistent velocity and tight groupings. Previously purchased ammo from another party had poorly seated primers, this jamming my fire arm.

  • olbull said:

    same as title

  • john said:

    good product / good price

  • Snake said:

    Great ammo! Shoots and cycles perfect. Will defiantly buy more.

  • lroberts103 said:

    Great company to work with. Fast shipping great price

  • Michael said:

    This 5.56 ammo was just what my AR needed.
