Overview of Green Tip Ammo

Recognized by its distinctive painted tip, Green Tip ammo refers to M855 5.56 NATO rounds designed for enhanced penetration. Originally developed for military use, these rounds feature a steel core penetrator that helps punch through light barriers better than traditional lead-core FMJ ammo. While not technically classified as armor-piercing under federal law, M855 rounds strike a balance between range performance and added punch.

Most commonly chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO, green tip rounds are ideal for AR-15 owners looking for military-style performance. If you’re looking to compare options, visit our full selection of 5.56 NATO ammo, or save more by buying in bulk via our bulk 5.56 ammo deals.

    I've been using PMC ammo for about 40 years. NEVER had a problem with it and AMMO.COM has good prices too.

  • SAL said:

    LOVE THIS PLACE FOR MY AMMO. I AM ABLE TO DONATE TO WOUNDED WORRIER AND GET AMMO CAN'T BEAT IT.

  • Brian said:

    My son and I have shot thousands of rounds of the PMC with no complaints whatsoever. And you won't find a better deal on 62 gr 556 bulk ammo anywhere

  • Shooter said:

    The ammo performed awesome.

  • Bone Crusher said:

    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
