300 rounds max...but it is the best price I could find. $10.79 per 20. Boxes labeled XM885 .....So they were rejected. http://usarmorment.com/lake-city-556-m855-ss109-penetrator-ammo-20-rnds-p-172.html

"Brand new current manufacture- 2006"

I gues it doesn't matter too much but seems like '08 vintage is current to me.

If you want more, check the EE.   I just picked up a big lot of XM193 from a guy selling who's also selling XM855 for about $0.42/round + shipping.  

I don't think it's kosher to pimp EE ads here, but IM me and I can give you his info.

Did the box say "XM885" or "XM855"?

Difference in vintage from 06 to 08 is nothing- don't worry.  IIRC either Sportsmans Guide or Cheaper than Dirt was trying to hawk this stuff (mismarked) for a while at a high price.

They still have it, for $13.97 per box.  At the beginning of the year it was around $10.
