[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Question about PMC Bronze

Posted: 10/13/2010 10:48:10 PM EDT

I read the ammo review, but didn't see one that listed PMC Bronze specifically. Have you all had any problems with this stuff? Local gun store has it on sale for $300 a case.

thanks,

I use PMC for my AR and have never had a problem. Good plinking ammo in my opinion. I've used thousands of rounds of it.

The only problem I have had with reloading it is the primer pockets seem to be a wee bit tight. But nothing a pocket reamer won't fix.

Feeding and function have been 100%.

I've put about 1200 rounds of PMC without a failure through my AR. Good stuff

The PMC review covered that as well. They just changed the packaging to say "bronze" now I believe...

I just went shooting last sunday and found several dozen empties that I promptly picked up, Upon checking them the new batch doesn't appear to have a primer pocket crimp like the last ones I had from last year. I didn't need to do anything other than deprime to get them ready. Took the new primer snug but had no resistance and slipped right in. Appeared to be all PMC headstamp also instead of having some of the military headstamp mixed in.

PMC is fine plinking ammo. I've shot a good bit of it, never had any issues. $300 isn't too bad for it.

Used a bunch of it in the last 6-7 months, never had a problem.

I used 1000 rounds at a carbine class, not a single problem from this ammo.

My OBR Lite doesn't like it.. it won't eject and causes double feeds (OBR runs fine on the other 15 or so ammo types I've shot thru it), works great in my other rifles though

Works 100% in my Delton LW Chrome lined 16" upper. Not loaded hot but I like it like that for plinking.

Works great in all my rifles but my older SP-1 .. It is a little lighter (.223) than some of the other 5.56 loads but it is what it is. there are also better deals out there than that price.

It is one of my go to plinking rounds. It runs without any issues and is very accurate for what it is.
