5.56X45 ARMSCOR 62 GRAIN FMJ M855 (1000 ROUNDS)

Twenty rounds of 5.56x45 M855 ammunition? Why, that’s not even enough to warm up your AR-15’s barrel. No – a real firearm enthusiast such as yourself needs no less than one thousand rounds to get into the swing of things. And maybe even two thousand if it’s the weekend.

Unfamiliar with the M855 designation? That’s just a type of ammo the military commonly uses in combat, but it’s also extremely popular for regular range shooting for regular folks like us. The M855 projectile is a 62 grain full metal jacket. Its tip is painted green to indicate what’s special about it: the solid steel penetrator core. Because the front half of its core is made of pure steel, this bullet is going to attract a magnet. But it’s also going to pierce through sheet metal like it’s made out of candy glass!

This ammunition is not suitable for ranges which prohibit “magnetic” ammunition, and it’s also going to damage steel targets. But Armscor’s Philippines-made ammo is also noncorrosive and reloadable thanks to its Boxer-primed brass cases. You get 50 boxes when you order a case, and you also get our famous free shipping. Try and beat that!
