When Winchester isn’t hard at work managing the federal government’s largest ammunition factory, they’re doing something even more important: loading the 5.56x45 ammo you need for any kind of target shooting you set your mind to. Here’s your chance to stock up on what is fundamentally the same ammo Winchester would supply to the Army!

This is M855 spec ammo. It will attract a magnet, so make absolutely certain your range will allow it before welcoming a whole 1,000-round case into your life.

Why does M855 ammo attract a magnet? It’s not its cases, which are brand new brass specimens with noncorrosive Boxer primers. It’s its bullets, which have green-painted tips to indicate that their cores are made of two different metals: lead in the rear, steel in the front.

The steel in an M855 bullet helps it penetrate body armor and other thin metal barriers. It also enables the bullet to split into two pieces following impact with a soft medium, thus creating two separate wound channels following impact. The M855 bullet’s heavier weight gives it greater momentum, which helps it overcome wind drift as well as penetrate its target deeper. Winchester only markets this ammo for target practice, though we’d personally be glad to have it during the kind of crisis when plinking is the furthest thing from our minds.
