5.56X45 HORNADY FRONTIER 55 GRAIN FMJ M193 (1000 ROUNDS)
Imagine the best that Hornady has to offer -- a bullet manufacturer that has consistently innovated their industry’s technology since Harry S. Truman was in office, and now stands as one of the world’s foremost authorities on their craft. Now, imagine if they paired with the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, a massive production facility which is able to crank out high quality military spec ammo at dizzying quantities, and cost-effectively to boot. You don’t have to imagine too hard if you invest in this excellent 5.56x45 cartridge from Hornady’s Frontier line of ammunition, a round which represents the very best of the two organizations’ new and exciting partnership.This is an M193 cartridge like they issue for field use with the United States Army’s M16A1 rifle. Its 55 grain projectile is made by Hornady, and accordingly possesses the uniformly dense core and concentric gilded metal jacket that are conducive to intensely satisfying accuracy. The rest of this round’s components are made by Lake City, and have each been meticulously inspected by Hornady both before and after assembly to guarantee you some of the absolute best performance that money could buy.

Posted onIts good ammo. Its not the best but if your just looking for cheap stuff to plunk with at the range its good. I ordered some in spring for under $300 per thousand . not as good as feocchi but good enough for plinking.

Reports of it blowing up guns

Posted onI bought this awhile back based on some reviews here and on other ammo sights, and one online 'magazine' review. Subsequently, I've seen a lot of reports on forums that this ammo has seating and/or pressure defects resulting in ruined guns. Hornady/Lake City is apparently refusing to acknowledge the ammo's problems. Most of what I've seen has been limited to the 62gr. But I don't trust it. I'm keeping my fingers crossed (and way out on the barrel) while sending what I have left of the 55gr, and not buying it again.

Posted onWas a hell of a deal a week ago when it was under 300 hundred for a case. I don’t know if ammoman supplier is charging them more or if they are screwing there customers over by profiteering. I have always liked doing business with them so I would like to know

Good ammo--- mostly.

Posted onAmmo shoots well. No problems there. Groups nicely on paper out to 300 meters. Solid 2 MOA performance.
My disappointments, though, are the bulk packing--- when I... for no good reason... expected 20-round boxes.
The other negative is much more troubling--- to me, at least.
M193 ammo implies sealant at both the bullet and primer.
This ammo has neither. Thus, this is practice ammo--- not for long-term storage. -
great round

Posted onThese work amazing out of my AR's with a 1:7 and 1:8 twist. I can get groups of just over an inch all day. The 55 grain HP match gets me under an inch easy peasy.
