  • Brad said:

    I'll keep re-buying PMC 223 until I have a reason not to. They're priced nice and always work in my different rifles.

  • Jerryaa51 said:

    I was very please with that courtesy and knowledge the people that I have talked to.

  • Kim said:

    Good stuff

  • Joel said:

    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.

  • Shooter magavin said:

    Have bought this ammo a couple of time and could not be happier

  • ammosmurff said:

    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...

  • Dave said:

    Very good ammo for the money! Reliable and accurate. Can't ask for anything more than that.

  • dkmatthews said:

    There's no doubting the quality of PMC Bronze. It's super reliable in every firearm. Thanks for a good deal on the case of ammo.

  • chris said:

    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.
