These rounds appear to use once fired Lake City brass. Every case has a dent and appears fire formed to a chamber.

Jay, this is highly likely the case Sir. Since it is listed as New, I would contact Federal with the lot number for verification at (800) 379-1732 7 a.m. — 5 p.m. CST Monday through Friday.

its new Federal ammo not reloads

Does this ammo use new or once fired brass?

Jay, same deal Sir. This is all brand new component ammunition. Cheers!

Is this ammo packed on stripper clips?

Verena, No this ammo can has 41 - 20 round cardboard boxes labeled 20 CRTG 5.56 MM BALL M855 in it.

Verena, no, this military issue ammo is packed into 20-round boxes. ---- https://www.gunbuyer.com/federal-m855-5-56nato-62gr-820rd-can.html

Will this ammo work in my new Mini 14 which usually shoots .223 rounds ? The dealer says it will shoot 5.56 rounds. What is M855 mean ? Do I need a special clip ? Will it chamber as well as .223 ? Will it hurt the rifling? Thank You.

Douglas, it will fire just fine and cause no damage in the Mini 14 Sir. The M855 has a steel penetrator in the tip as pictured here : https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/the-truth-about-m855-5-56-nato-ammunition/

Is the projectile steel core?

Jason, yes Sir. This is the lead core, steel penetrator tip M855 ammunition. --- https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/the-truth-about-m855-5-56-nato-ammunition/

Needed some range ammo and these fit the bill! No firing issues 0/800. My msr 15 ate these things like candy. As always, great service from buds. Thanks!

The ammo is exactly as described plus another ammo can — bonus. Same Federal green tip that I used in Iraq and Afghanistan. As always Buds quick delivery along with unbeatable prices.

Great 556 NATO ammo. Looks good, loads into mags well, chambers correctly, no FTF/FTE issues with this ammo. Works and functions excellent with my S&W MP 15 Sport II AR. Saw this deal and could not pass it up. 820 rounds of green tip ammo for a great price. Arrived in just 3 days. Great service and timely delivery from Buds as usual. Thank you Buds.

Arrived pretty quickly after I contacted Buds a week after I placed my order . packaged well . The only Issue I have is you have to be a member to Buds Gun shop In order to buy these although I do not mind being a member it was an extra cost I was not planning on. Buds Gun Shop Has so far from research on items I have been buying beat the cost all the way around on all items I have purchased from them with an exception of only a few items. Thank you BUDS GUN SHOP.
