Most Helpful Positive Review SS109 and M855 ARE virtually the same thing
I just wanted to add my $.02 to the reviews that are bringing down the rating of this ammo, which is exactly what they claim it to be since it is advertised as SS109. SS109 and M855 are the exact same projectile, M855 rounds actually contain the SS109 bullet, however the M855 rounds have a little st...

Most Helpful Negative Review 2 rounds were missing I the box
P.S. Just an addition to my earlier review. Total round count in the box I received was 198 so 2 rounds were missing. Advertised were 200 rounds. Plus no green tips as promised. I hope very much that the rounds shoot well. Otherwise - Houston, we have a problem! :)

pull trigger, it go bang

by D C, Verified Owner from FL, United States Written on March 26, 2022
This is decent range ammo for the price. I have a few rifles that only like full power nato 556 so this fills that role fine. My only complaint would be is the ammo shoots pretty dirty but that’s about it. Feeds and ejects fine

Seems to be very clean burning and accurate ammunition.

by Zuess, Verified Owner from CT, United States Written on March 8, 2022
Great ammunition at a decent price. For those of us who just dont want the cheapest ammo available, these are a great choice. They do have a Steel Penetrator core like the green tipped M855 rounds do, but without the green tip. Very pleased overall and highly recommend.

Great ammo and Great customer service!

by herbst, from WI, United States Written on March 4, 2022
So ordered a box and they came swiftly. I normally place bulk ammo in plastic cases (mtm or equivalent) or load my empty mags. I was short 5 rounds and reached out to the company Via email and they got back to me the next day, with apologies and asked for the number on the box for quality control… the rep also asked if I’d like replacement rounds or if I’d consider a Tshirt or hat & if so to drop him my size. I responded that it’s not a huge deal and things happen, I get that!! Manufacturing isn’t always “perfect” but within 2 weeks I had a hat and Tshirt and in all honesty I was more then happy with that! Sometimes we just have to realize that the only time most people right a review is to be negative or vent… maybe take the time to reach out to the manufacturer and see what the company is made of ;-)

Plus American made and soon will have another plant in Wisconsin. Yay MURICA!!

Also ammo runs great, shoulda purchased a few more boxes…

Box of used ammo

by Collin, from ND, United States Written on December 23, 2021
Received the Manufacturers box with seal broken and full of FMJ ball ammo. It looks like ammo was replaced with ammo from jams as there are bolt dents all over the casings. I will not be buying ammo again here.
Pros:
  • None
Cons:
  • Unusable
  • used ammo from jams
  • Ball ammo, not SS109
  • broken manufacturer seal on box
Best Used for:
  • Throwing out
Would recommend: No

NOT GREEN TIPPED M855 ROUNDS

by Zuess, Verified Owner from CT, United States Written on October 27, 2021
I ordered these because of the fact that i would be receiving Green tipped Steel Penetrator rounds (M855) and instead i received regular target practice rounds (SS109).

As every review except 1. All the rest of us feel ripped off and should be compensated for the discrepancies in advertising these rounds. I didn't receive a return label. And would not have bought these if i knew they were not M855 rounds.
Would recommend: No

Good ammo, quick shipping.

by Andrew Ford, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on September 29, 2021
Shipped fast and great ammo for target practice, will definitely buy more! Will definitely be buying more in order to keep having a good time out in the fields! You can also use the green tip to destroy metal targets which is a blast.
Pros:
  • Good ammo
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • target and self defense
Would recommend: Yes

Same as the others...

by Kyano, Verified Owner from PA, United States Written on September 14, 2021
I bought a big 200rd box of them thinking they were going to be green tips, but when they came they were just regular old rounds. I do however still think it looks like nice, quality ammunition overall. I didn't really have the desire to count and make sure there is 200 overall, but I'll just believe they counted right. I feel like everyone who thought they got green tips should be given some sort of apology or gift for the misleading title. Y'know... maybe a box of free ammo or a useful coupon code that doesn't have a purchase minimum. It is what it is though, and honestly I'll probably just buy another few boxes because it's still nice looking ammo hence why I will still give it 3 stars.
Pros:
  • It is good looking ammo
Cons:
  • Not green tips like were originally advertised
Would recommend: Yes

Not as advertised

by Alex, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on September 2, 2021
I completely agree with the previous reviewer. You do not get green-tipped M855 rounds. Instead, you get SS109 with shiny tips. I have not had a chance to shoot them but rounds look nice and shiny. The fact that you do not get exactly what is advertised took a couple of stars from the review. Thanks
Pros:
  • look good
Cons:
  • not as advertised
Best Used for:
  • Range
Would recommend: Yes
