I'd be more comfortable with the Winc. quality.

Or this...http://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.cfm?item_id=9019....da_n good stuff.

I see that this Turkish 5.56 is a very good price with the distributors compared with other M855-type ammo. I'm a relatively low-volume shooter. So I'm waiting for someone who typically blasts off 1000 or more rounds in one range session to put a large quantity of this ammo through their rifle and submit a report on accuracy, how hot the round is, ease of cleaning rifle, reliability, etc. This round seems to be ignored compared to other loads. But if this ammo is good, it's a helluva value at its typical price point.

I've fired off about 400 rounds of the Turkish ss109 with no problems. I actually fired Lake City M855 and the Turkish ss109 in the same range session and couldn't tell the difference between the two.

This stuff is the only brass cased ammo to malfunction in my rifle. Spent shell casings get stuck in the chamber even with an upgraded extractor spring.

I'd stay away from it.

For a similar cost and much better quality, try the Lithuanian NATO spec M855 that they sell on Ammunitiontogo.com

That has the NATO cross stamped on the bottom and is first quality ammo. It is cheaper than Lake City and is excellent ammo.
