Has anyone tried the Federal XM855? I noticed that it is currently selling for the same price as the PMC X-Tac.

http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx? ... .223+(5.56)+62grn+M855+20rd+Box&groupid=21

Is this rejected ammo or production over run?  I have often heard rumars about ammo being either rejected or production over run, the later actually seems more likely. Does anyone do the facts behind these surplus rounds?

It's very good ammunition. I would take it over the Filipino shit any day of the week. It is not rejected or over run. Completely different recipe (powder) than the real stuff.

Just curious, but on what do you base this statement?

XM855 is M855 that was either overrun or didn't pass an inspection.  

LC isn't running different powders fr that "civilian" XM855
