AR15 223 Ammo Shootout PMC American Eagle Wolf Remington Hornady-Reload

Which Ammo will My Gun Perform the Best with
My Reloaded 223 using Hornady 55Gr
PMC Nato 556 62Grain
PMC Bronze 55Gr
Remington 55Gr
Wolf Match 75Grain
Federal American Eagle 55Gr
Was Shocked by the outcome
I did'nt wait for special wind conditions I just aimed and shot
just like if I was planking. You Resullts may vary but this is what
actually happend when i did the test.
I am no marksman so my errors could help change the outcome but
it was not on purpose to make any brand better than the other. I only aimed
at the center of the tareget and did not adjust (kentucky windage) after seeing
where my shot hit for the next shot. I'll try to answer any questions or comments below - Charles

@MrAppleseed88 Thats the best ammo i found next to reloading it yourself Don't shoot all 500 Rounds Thursday Life is Good - Charles

Alternating between shooting with your trigger finger and middle finger more than likely made this test inconclusive due to inconsistency. Nice video though and nice rifle. DPMS gets a bad rap but I have a few of their AR's as well as a bushmaster and a colt. I'll tell ya, the DPMS can do anything they can.

@boogieman1986 Thanks for the info I did not realize I did that until later I really enjoy my DPMS it really shined after I figured out the reload using varget and sierra 55 hpbt ammo it did .710 shot group at 100 yards you can check out the video - Charles

Some stats on your gun would be nice. Barrel length and twist rate would be great. Im planning on doing a video like this in the next month. Thanks for the video to compare data.

@boogieman1986 I have a DPMS ap4. It's a good rifle. I haven't had any problems, but I don't think I'd take it to a class. I'm not sure it could handle 500+ rounds per day. I have a BCM for that. I'm willing to bet you'd take the Colt in that situation as well.

@glass007 I am still leaning to PMC Bronze I got 10 boxes last week at Big 5 for 6.00 a box they put it on sale about every 3 months. I am playing around with different powder reloading on 223 still have not found the magic combo yet will make a video when i find the right combo I feel that i shoud get at least 1.5 moa at 100 yards with my 223 Thanks for the Comment - Charles

[glass007]

Dang, I just paid 6.79 a box for American Eagle yesterday at Cheaper Than Dirt. Great "realistic" video!
