XM193 is Federal’s commercial version of the classic M193 5.56 NATO ball load, and the 20 round boxes make it easy to grab a few for a range trip or a carbine class. This listing is Federal American Eagle XM193 5.56x45mm NATO 55 grain full metal jacket boat tail ammo, MPN XM193, sold as a 500 round case.
Federal rates this load at 3,165 fps with 1,223 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. It is loaded to 5.56 NATO pressure, so it gives a flatter trajectory and stronger cycling than many commercial 223 loads, which helps short-barreled carbines and suppressed rifles run reliably. The 55 grain bullet has a lead core with no steel insert, making it acceptable at most ranges that ban green tip, and it stabilizes in 1:12 through 1:7 twist barrels. The full metal jacket does not expand reliably, so this is training ammunition rather than a hunting load.
This ammunition fits rifles chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO or 223 Wylde, such as the Colt 6920, Smith and Wesson M&P15 Sport, Ruger AR-556 and SFAR, Springfield Saint, Daniel Defense DDM4, Bravo Company BCM rifles, and Palmetto State Armory builds, as well as the Sig MCX and FN SCAR 16. A common question is whether this load is good for zeroing. Yes. XM193 is a common zeroing load, though you should confirm zero again if you switch to a heavier duty or hunting round. Another common question is whether 5.56 is safe in a 223 rifle. It is not recommended because of higher pressure, so use it only in rifles marked 5.56 or 223 Wylde.
Federal XM193 is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA. Each round uses a reloadable brass case with a boxer primer and is non-corrosive. This case comes in factory packaging as 25 boxes of 20 rounds for a total of 500 rounds of 5.56 NATO 55 grain FMJ-BT. Buying by the case keeps you on one production lot so your zero holds.

In a time where ammo availability is limited, and stressful to purchase, bulkmunitions came through. Easy to order and recieved quickly, I would 100% order again. We don’t live in the cheap ammo era anymore, but prices here are reasonably priced to other places. Will buy here again.
