Do any of you guys use them?  If so, what is your brand of choice?

Thanks.

I use mine. Got two of them from Bushmaster. Don't know what brand they are.

Duuhhhh, I like Q3131A, but any old "Mil-Spec" round in your magazine will work! (ymmv)

I got mine off Ebay for a couple of bucks. Works better than any rifle round...

I'm with Mike. I just used a .223/5.56 round.

Five years in the army...
All we ever used is nails...
My bushy's front sight notches aren't as large as the M-16 seems to be.
I tried a practice tip from one of crossbow bolts.  Works rather well and is small.

Basically, just use whatever you find that works well for you, bullet tip, nail, etc.  If you want to spend money then buy a tool.

I got the tool as part of a package of upper vise, barrel wrench, headspace gauges, etc.

I still use the tip of a bullet out of habit and because the ammo is usually more convenient than rooting around in my tools.
