| Maybe I missed it on the Ammo Oricle pages (just got done reading), but what does the "PD" stand for, and what is the difference between M855 and M855PD? |
.
| PD is bulk packaged and quality control rejects, on the box it reads "For Training Only". I haven't heard the real answer for the "PD"? someone stated Propellent Deficent, and the guy from fedor ATK said it only means bulk packed?? IIRC. I shoot the PD all seems well to me. Do look at the tagged thread ammunition review and referrence and in there will be a PD thread. |
| No one knows what the PD stands for, other than it denotes bulk packed reject ammo. Regular M855 or XM855 should be higher quality. I have shot a bunch of the XM855PD though, and it has all gone bang. Some of the cases look a little suspect though, and I have had 2 tracers mixed in. |
