Is Federal Lake City XM193 good ammo and is it good to store for SHTF.
and is $308 for 1000 rds a good price |
|
As well as the Ammo FAQ and the Review and Reference threads up top. |
|
Quoted: The FAQ is great and all but the ammo that we mostly shoot and store has one small paragraph. M855 and M183. Who is gonna stock up on exotic 60/70 grain plus ammo? There's a reason that M193 and M855 are not first choice when it comes to self-defense which is explained in the FAQ. Furthermore, there is an "Ammunition Review and Reference" thread which lists ammo in descending order of reliability. |

Quoted:
M193 is not exactly ideal, but for 30 cents a round, plus the fact that it is available everywhere, it suits my purposes. 75 grain 5.56 is very costly and somewhat hard to find. That is why I was looking at M193 in the first place. You can get a low more for your money than any of the other rounds listed in the FAQ link |
