Golden Bear ammunition is made at the Barnaul Cartridge Plant in Russia. If you know one thing about Russian ammo, it’s that it usually has steel cases. And Golden Bear is no exception! This 223 Rem ammo’s affordable steel cases are actually plated with a thin layer of brass, which helps them to feed more freely in an AR-15 and also protects them against corrosion in storage.

But steel cases are still steel cases, regardless of how they are plated. As such Golden Bear cases are not useful for reloading. This new production ammo has got non-corrosive Berdan primers, though, so you can still clean your rifle regularly after firing it.

This ammo’s 55 grain FMJ bullets are similar to its cases. That’s because they have bimetal jackets: copper on the outside, steel on the inside. So much steel content makes ammo like Golden Bear a lot more affordable, but you have to be careful about where you fire it. Not all indoor ranges allow magnetic bullets! Aside from that shortcoming, bimetal jacketed bullets pose no significant disadvantage. This ammo delivers good target grade accuracy, and will give you full access to everything your rifle has to offer.
