    Will buy again.

  • Rick said:

    These rounds worked just fine.

  • Steven said:

    The Ammo performed great. Consistent groups and accuracy. I experienced zero failures in the 300 rounds I fired. I used the ammo in a 1/9 twist barrel and Zerroed and Primary Arms LPVO in just 12 rounds. Once zeroed my shots stayed withing the 300 meter silhouette center mass circle. I'm verry impresssd. I did know what to expect since I always use the higher grain green tip from winchester. Many say you need a 1/12 twist barrel to get good performance from this ammo; I disagree.

  • Fiftysum said:

    I just bought a Colt LE6920 5.65 caliber. The closest thing I ever shot was my M16 when I was in the Army during the Vietnam era -- a long time ago. So my review is not based on a comparison with any other ammo brand in this caliber. I bought Winchester because it is a known brand, is labeled for target use, and I feel it was available for a good price here on Ammo.com. I know there are some premium brands, which I will try eventually, and there are lots of brands I never heard of. Some of them may be good, I just don't know anything about them yet. I'm giving the Winchester 5.56 target ammo five stars in each category because my shots were consistently within one inch of the bullseye at 25 and 50 yards. That I hit the target at all at 100 yards I will count as okay because I didn't have a scope and I could just barely make out the 100-yard target with my not-so-good-as-when-I-was-20 eyesight. I qualified "sharpshooter" when I was in the Army, having missed "expert" by one shot. It makes me happy that this Colt M4 is as accurate, if not more so, than my Army M-16. Good ammo should give consistent results. This Winchester target brand delivers for me.

    Man this ammo can in, in a matter of days nice quality

  • Joe said:

    Really good on the range. haven't had a problem yet

  • RONALD said:

    No surprise here but the price per round shows as 63.8 cents. With shipping and sales tax, that easily went to about 85 cents. I did receive it in a timely fashion and it was well-padded in a cardboard box but would have preferred different packing from the factory. My error. A range pack means loose rounds inside a box. The ammo itself is so-so for its intended purpose. I also purchased Belom 7.62x39 (no longer available here) and cannot address ammo quality yet, but the factory packaging (20 rounds per PLASTIC case) was phenomenal.

  • John said:

    Outstanding job, I will use this company and tell my friends.

  • Matthew said:

    Ammo was inexpensive and dependable. Shipping was on time. Would definitely recommend.

  • Justis said:

    I've used Winchester rounds in other calibers and never been disappointed by them, and I can say the same for these 5.56 rounds. Excellent training rounds, good pricing, and I've had no issues with the first 450 rounds I've used so far.

  • D. said:

  • Jacob said:

    The rounds were dirty, with some having excess powder or some kind of processing oil/grease on them. A few boxes had 18/19 rounds in them. Worked well in my rifle after 500 rounds so far and were a good price.

  • B.S said:

    Shot 250 rounds , no isues.
