Description
When 5.56×45 attracts a magnet, that’s usually because it’s low-budget bimetal jacketed ammo from Russia. But 5.56×45 M855 ammo is an important exception to this rule. This American-made AR-15 ammo by Winchester features the penetrator bullet, which contains a solid steel tip in its core that enables it to punch through sheet metal like it’s made out of candy glass (following close-to-medium range impact).
rThis round’s 62 grain FMJ is magnetic, of course, so it’s not going to be welcome at all indoor ranges. Check ahead of time! And if you’re shooting over long distances, you’ll want to utilize a 1:8 or 1:9 barrel twist for the best accuracy. Outside of that this 5.56 is awesome for all your target shooting and range training needs, and the M855 bullet’s ability to conquer barriers and bisect as it pierces soft tissue both present distinct tactical advantages as well.
rUSA VALOR series ammo is military-grade: non-corrosive, Boxer-primed, brass-cased and reloadable. These rounds’ robust heat-treated shell cases are brand spanking new, albeit gray around their shoulders because they are not polished at the factory. Order a case and take even greater satisfaction that Winchester donates a portion of their proceeds to the Folds of Honor Foundation!
