Re: .223 ammo
[ QUOTE ]
I have been shootign american eagle in my .223 for 2 years now, shot a ton of coyotes and get less than a 3/4 inch at 100 with it, most accurate shells I ever got from a box! I would never shoot the surpluss shells, I got a box of 50 from a freind and was goign to use them for gophers this summer and my bolt would not close, they are not sized correctly,they are mass produced and not as accurate, I bleive the american eagle are made by federal, good luck!!

5.56 surplus is not the same as Rem. 223. Unless your barrel is stamped 5.56 dont shoot 5.56 ammo in it. 5.56 will chamber and shoot Rem.223 though.
