Lake City's M856, .223/5.56, 64 grain, tactical tracer ammo is made to military specifications by Federal Cartridge. This is the real deal and not remanufactured. Very limited quantities of a special run packed in commercial American Eagle boxes. Simply put, this is some of the best tracer ammo on the market at a great price. 20 Rounds per box.

Great tracers!, 04/04/2008 |
| Reviewer: Super Rebel |
| This ammo works PERFECTLY, but the box is mislabeled, M856 tracers aren't 64 Grains, they are from 61.2-61.8 Grains but besides that, they don't go bad over time and work well!!! and tarnishing happens, it will work in ur rifle, if U choose 2 polish them, thats fine but we don't care..... and jus so ppl kno, the other 5.56mm tracers (M196) (54 Grain) after long storage times the tracing compound degrades and they may no-longer ignite....just so U kno ;) |

What?, 03/13/2008 |

| I'm sorry, but that's what you get with a lot of brass military surplus ammunition.
It's not going to come to you shiny and new with a mirror finish.
This ammunition is Lake City Arsenal M586 placed in a new flashy box. When brass sits around for a while it will tarnish unless it's coated with a varnish.
I'm wondering when people will realize that military surplus stuff isn't always in brand-new condition because it comes from warehouses from across the globe that can be locked up for 30+ years. |
Very tarnished , 03/08/2008 |

| Each round I removed from the box was heavily tarnished and some had corosion on them. Five rounds in the box had small dents in them. These must be old military tracers that were removed from links and repackaged. I spent 20minutes cleaning the corosion off of each round. They should be paying me to take the rounds... |
Good Stuff, 03/03/2008 |

| These rounds fired fine for me without failure to burn. Just be careful where you are disharging your firearm though. Make sure you only use these at a range where you can make sure they terminate in a berm or catch so that you don't accidentally start a fire with dry grass or leaves.
They will continue to burn until the strontium and magnesium exhaust their material. So, if your round falls dead on grass it could possibly start a fire.
Mine would sit there hot burning red after terminating at my shale berm for a few seconds.
Have fun folks :) |
