5.56X45 WINCHESTER USA VALOR 62 GRAIN FMJ M855 (125 ROUNDS)

USA VALOR doesn’t just stand for American-made 5.56x45 ammunition. It stands for philanthropy, too. That’s because Winchester donates a portion of the proceeds from every box of USA VALOR they sell to Folds of Honor, a nonprofit which sends survivors of fallen military members to college.

This is M855 ammunition, a fine choice for target shooting but also suitable for self-defense applications. The round’s 62 grain bullet contains a partial steel core beneath the tip of its jacket. This helps the bullet to punch through sheet metal and other tough barriers, making it highly effective for engaging threats shielded by light armor or vehicles. Just be certain that the M855 bullet is magnetic, and as a heavier projectile it delivers the best accuracy out of an AR-15 with a 1:9 or 1:8 twist barrel.

USA VALOR brass cases look like they may have been reloaded, but they are in fact brand new. Military-grade ammo has heat treated cases that stand up to intense pressure better, but which haven’t been polished up for cosmetic purposes. Alongside its non-corrosive Boxer primers, this ammo is perfectly reloadable.
