5.56MM 62GR 420-ROUND AMMO CAN on Stripper Clips
Has anyone out there tried the 5.56MM XM 855 62GR 420-ROUND packed in AMMO CAN? Brownells currently has this on for $149.99 for 420 rounds (on stripper clips and 30 round paper sleeves). Academy had it for $159.00 a couple of months ago. I think sportsmansguide.com also has it for sale. Some of the cans are labeled "not for duty use", some are not. Anyone out there have the true story?

Brownell's had them marked at 169.99 when I checked. Think they were Lake City. Wonder what shipping would be? Probably about the same as tax locally I would guess.

Actually there is a current "special" going on. $149.99. Shipping for 840 rounds is $12.95. Just wondering how good it is.

Yeah, gotta wonder why, if it is Lake City, why was it put on civilian market?

I've bought Lake City before at specials, and the ammo seemed to be OK. I've got a suspicion that these are blems and that would not be a problem to me. Maybe my targets would object, but I wouldn't!

If it's stamped LC it's good to go in my book

Got a can of it from Academy and have had no problems. Cases look good and bullets all look centered and straight. Accuracy about the same as any 5.56 ball.

Just ordered two cans from Brownells - 149.95 per can plus 12.95 total shipping. Hard to beat that!
