I received my entire order from CTD with no problem. Only had time to open one box and inspect it. Bullets are in great condition. Look forward to firing some rounds in the near future. Will write a post-follow-up review for that.

Reviewer: dickwood
I bought 300 round of this ammo, loaded a mag and then loaded the boys up and went to the gun range. The round's went thru my wife's AR15 with no problems. All rounds lite up and I am ordering 300 more rounds rite now! Loved them!
4.0 Rating These tracers work! - 2/1/2013Ammo 5.56x45mm NATO American Eagle Tactical Tracer FMJ 64 Grain 20 Round Box 3020 fps XM8564.0000
Reviewer: Randy
These rounds work good and seem to shoot straight from my 14.5" 1/7 M&P15. The tracers won't light up immediately after leaving the barrel; these tracers seem to light up about 300m or so. You need a 800m or longer range to get the full effect of these tracers. Also, most shooting ranges tend to be against tracer use as they can cause a fire hazard. These rounds are visible once the sun has gone down over the horizon. Some say tracers will ruin a barrel or make it dirty; I haven't run into that problem with this ammo. I have seen these rounds stabilized just fine by a 1/9 twist barrel; but 1/7 is recommended. Combine these tracers with a slide fire stock and the results can be a lot of fun.
5.0 Rating Works Great! All lit up nice and bright. - 11/29/2012Ammo 5.56x45mm NATO American Eagle Tactical Tracer FMJ 64 Grain 20 Round Box 3020 fps XM8565.0000
Reviewer: AZ shooter
I think the people saying that these don't light up just aren't shooting them at a long enough range. They take at least 50-100 yds or so before they start to light up. I was fortunate enough to shoot them in the open desert, and they all lit up and burned way longer and brighter than the early '90s military surplus tracers sold here. These are very cool IF you have a longer range to shoot them.
3.0 Rating Fun for the price, but not reliable - 10/7/2012Ammo 5.56x45mm NATO American Eagle Tactical Tracer FMJ 64 Grain 20 Round Box 3020 fps XM8563.0000
Reviewer: Robert Mc.
Not very reliable, but for the price, you really can't beat it. I've only fired 5 rounds so far and two out of the three worked. The last one hit the berm and shot red burning flairs all over. I got some funny looks at the range. That alone made this purchase worth it. They seem to "kick in" at about 100 to about 125 yards. They seem pretty accurate too. Quarter inch groups @ 200 yards using a Yanky Hill Machine upper and a chrome lined 1:9 twist barrel. Scope was a Nikon M-223.
