Details

Pick up a case of PMC Bronze Ammo and you’re good to go for multiple range trips. Each case holds 1000 rounds of high quality .223 Remington ammo suitable for use in an AR-15 or any rifle chambered in .223 or 5.56 NATO. Each round uses reloadable Boxer-primed brass cases.

This ammo uses 55 grain full metal jacket bullets with a boat tail for maximum stability. Muzzle velocity is approximately 2,900 feet per second, delivering the flat trajectories and midrange accuracy AR shooters know and love. With one thousand rounds in this case, you could make one very ragged hole in a cardboard target!

Shooters frequently pick up PMC ammo in large cases such as this one because it offers an excellent combination of desirable characteristics: accuracy, consistency, affordability, and availability in quantity. These qualities are brought to you by the Poongsan Corporation, a South Korean munitions company that works hard to ensure that every batch of ammo meets rigorous quality standards. As a top supplier for the South Korean military, Poongsan has extensive infrastructure and expertise that enable it to produce vast quantities of FMJ ammo for serious shooters in the US.

A: Hello Jay! This PMC ammunition is all new manufacture. As a result, it is loaded with completely non-corrosive components.

A: Hello, The boat tail design has a tapper at the rear of the projectile which improves aerodynamics which reduces drag and improves stability. Boat tail projectiles tend to have better accuracy at longer distances over non-boat tail projectiles.

A: Hello Pedro, Yes, these 55gr. FMJBT rounds by PMC in .223 are non-magnetic. You can shoot them at your range and they will not attract a magnet. They have a lead core, copper jacket, and a brass case.

A: Hey Vern, Thank you for the question and for coming in to check out the site! Soft point bullets refer to the projectile - it's basically a lead expanding bullet with a copper or brass jacket that is open at the tip. Soft points expand, unlike a full metal jacket round but don't expand as much as most jacketed hollow point rounds. Because it expands less than a jacketed hollow point round, soft points generally penetrate deeper into a target than the jacketed hollow point would. Soft point rounds don't have a polymer tip and really, the name is a little deceiving. There is nothing soft about the tip when it's heading toward a target. I hope that helps and please feel free to fire away with any other questions you might have!

A: The biggest benefit to brass ammo is that the case can be reloaded. The steel cases are made from a very mild steel and will not damage the hard chrome lining of your heat treated steel AR-15 barrel. If you have tested a small amount of steel ammo in your rifle and know it works, then you should have no concerns about ordering it in quantity. However, if you want brass ammo or steel cased ammo does not function properly in your rifle, then PMC is a great choice.
