Bulk 223 Ammo For Sale
Overview of Bulk 223 Ammo
In 1962, 223 ammo was officially recommended by SAAMI, leading to its adoption by the U.S. Army in 1964 as the 5.56x45mm NATO, used in M-16 rifles during the Vietnam War. That same year, Remington Arms released the first civilian 223 Rem sporting rifle. The 223 quickly surpassed the popularity of the 222 Remington, and today, the AR-15 is the quintessential American rifle, with many manufacturers producing variations chambered in 223 for both bolt-action and AR-style semi-automatics.

The Ammo is great, but the one hitch in my "Giddy-up" is: The ammo on the website reads "FMJ-BT", but what showed up at my door was regular FMJ. I'll still shoot it, but I'll be wary, before I order from here.

Zero issue with this rounds performance, even with my limited rifle experience I was able to get 1 MOA accuracy out of my AR15 style rifle.

This round was very consistent, very clean. I don't think you can do better for price in a brass cased round. Shooting in a Daniel Defense m4v11 they were flawless. Definitely ordering more.

I've shot PMC ammo for years on the range, for .223, .45acp & 9mm, never had a misfire or failure to feed on any of my guns. Korean ammo is the only foreign ammo I'll buy!

J A said:
I have not shot any of this ammo as of yet because it is down the line in my rotation. But I was comfortable purchasing PMC ammo as I've never had any bad ammo from the company. The price was right at the time so it was a good buy for me. I look forward to purchasing ammo from your site again, thank you...

I have a remington Model 700sps varmint 223. with a bull barrel, n added a bipod, and a Barska 4-14 x 40 scope. i picked up a fiew boxes of the pmc bronze boat tail ammo in 55 grain simply because they wer only 7.25 for a box of 20. i was realy surprised on how consistant they wer. i placed 18 outa 20 rounds in a 3 inch circle at 150 yds. with a slight breeze. over all im realy pleased with this product, and will continue to use, an recommend this ammo.

Very tough exterior bag similar to some issue ammo during deployments. I see no issues that concern me. It saved me from doing my own storage prep.

I have a bear creek arsenal upper in 223 wild with a 20inch SS slick side charge and man I'm telling you that this stuff shoots 5 shots into 1/2 inch groups all day long, I bought this ammo because it shoots as flat as a 22,250 55 grain bullets do, I've yet to shoot any yotees yet but when I do you guys will be the first to know, I can't wait!!!!!
