5.56x45mm – 62 gr FMJ M855 – PMC (5.56K MB) – M2A1 Ammo Can – 840 Rounds

An ammo can of M855 is about as ready-to-store as rifle ammunition gets. This listing is PMC X-Tac 5.56x45mm NATO 62 grain M855 green tip ammo, MPN 5.56K MB, sold as 840 rounds in bandoleers inside a military-style M2A1 steel ammo can.

PMC rates this load at 3,100 fps with 1,323 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The M855 bullet has a lead core with a steel penetrator in the nose, marked by its green tip, and matches the US military 62 grain standard. It holds velocity and resists wind better than 55 grain loads and stabilizes best in 1:7 to 1:9 twist barrels. The gasketed M2A1 can seals out moisture for long-term storage and becomes a durable storage box once the ammunition is used, and the bandoleers make it easy to carry a ready supply to the firing line.

Use it in any rifle marked 5.56 NATO or 223 Wylde, such as a mil-spec style AR-15 carbine, Colt 6920, Daniel Defense M4 V7, Bravo Company BCM, Ruger SFAR, or Sig M400. Before a range trip, confirm the facility accepts green tip, since steel penetrator rounds are banned at many indoor lanes. A frequent question is why buy ammunition in a can. A sealed can protects against humidity, stacks neatly, and keeps a reserve organized and ready. Do not fire 5.56 NATO in a rifle marked only 223 Remington, and older 1:12 twist barrels may not stabilize 62 grain bullets.

PMC 5.56K MB is new production ammunition, not reloads, loaded in South Korea. Each round uses a reloadable brass case with a boxer primer and is non-corrosive. This listing ships as 840 rounds of 5.56 NATO 62 grain M855 in bandoleers, packed in an M2A1 steel ammo can. It is a simple way to set aside a sealed reserve of the same M855 load you train with, ready to grab when you need it.
