A: Thanks for reaching out James! I'm cautious, because a quick glance at Henry's product page doesn't show that they currently offer a 5.56x45 single-shot rifle: https://www.henryusa.com/rifles/single-shot-rifle/. To be sure, a rifle chambered for 5.56 can safely fire 223 Rem – but a 223 rifle cannot safely fire 5.56. They aren't truly interchangeable. If I am mistaken and your single-shot rifle is explicitly chambered for 5.56, then it should fire M855 spec ammo without issue.

A: Yes sir! An extremely popular choice for 5.56 AR rifles. I'd only recommend that you ask the range you plan to visit for their policy on "magnetic ammo." The M855 projectile contains a small steel tip beneath its jacket. Some ranges prohibit bullets that contain steel because they are more likely to damage their equipment.

A: Our apologies, Andrew, but California's laws prevent us from shipping there under any circumstances. We hope to be able to serve you in the future!

A: Hi, Tony! It's our understanding that an M855 round has a sealed primer and bullet by definition.

A: Hello Sanford,
These rounds do not come loaded on stripper clips. These are packaged in standard 20 round boxes with 50 boxes per 1000 round case.
