5.0 Rating Awesome - 6/20/2011Ammo 5.56x45mm Lake City Penetrator 62 Grain 20 Round Box M855 SS109 Made in the USA5.0000
Reviewer: Don- PA
I shoot this Ammunition from my Colt AR-15 HBAR MT Rifle only occasionally to save it. I've nearly cut Steel Re-bar in two with this stuff at 50 yds. (I put a Detachable Scope on my Rifle) Anyone with experience cutting Re-Bar can attest to it's hardness and this stuff slices right through it like Butter, consistently! CTD has the Best price I've seen, so if you want to do some serious cheese making this is your stuff... it's Military grade and as good as you can get. Shoot safe. Semper Fi!
4.0 Rating Just what I expected - 11/5/2010Ammo 5.56x45mm Lake City Penetrator 62 Grain 20 Round Box M855 SS109 Made in the USA4.0000
Reviewer: Redneck in NY
Just like all military ammo they have defects. Some are slightly dinged or dented in the casing and a few have a little black sticky stuff like grease or a glue. Other than that it’s a good deal I think. I haven't shot them yet but they appear to all be better then what I've been issued by the army in the past. I personally won't hesitate to put any of them through my rifle but it’s always a smart idea to inspect your ammo when coming from a source like this. I wouldn't expect competition accuracy out of them but that’s not why I bought them. Enjoy
4.0 Rating Not a nice looking round - 10/26/2010Ammo 5.56x45mm Lake City Penetrator 62 Grain 20 Round Box M855 SS109 Made in the USA4.0000
Reviewer: No Fancy Name
This ammunition came marked on the box Lake City 855 5.56. the bottom of the rounds are marked LC, NATO stamp, 08. I inspected every round of the 100 I ordered. 6 have dents that made me check twice. I believe that my LWRC M6A4 will fire them just fine. All rounds are typical Lake City, un-tumbled (dirty)brass, with chipping green tip paint. No frills at this price. For some reason, a clean car seems to drive better. I think that it is the same way with a shinny round.

I was nervous whether this stuff would work in my rifle. What I learned is that if your gun is 5.56, you are good. If your gun is .223 caliber you are good. If your gun is .223 remington DO NOT use it. My Mini 14 loved it and it was fun to see it does go through 3/8'' mild steel. I think you could kill an elephant with this stuff if you aimed for the brain.
