I found this ammo at AIM.com. It isn't made in the US. Has anyone ever used it? Does anyone have pros or cons on it? It caught my eye because of the price.

Prvi Partizan .223/5.56x45 M193 55grn FMJ

It's great stuff. I've fired a ton of it and it's good. Our sponsor Ammunition to Go also sells it: Ammo2Go here. Or the same but 1000rds here.

Is this made by Wolf? Does it have that coating that Wolf ammo has? "This is 5.56 Prvi Partizan / Wolf Gold 55gr. M-193 FMJ Ammo"

No, Wolf doesn't make it. Wolf never made it. It started off with a bad name because it was advertised and distributed by Wolf. PRVI has always made it. It's 100% mil-spec (no bullshit) M-193 ammo. It's good to go. I don't give positive reviews of something bad and I don't give a review of anything that I don't know about. Believe me, it's good stuff.

The Privi is great ammo - I'll probably be picking some more up on my next 5.56 purchase.

TS has it right - Wolf marketed this, and for whatever reason that gave it a bad name. This is military 5.56 ball.

Their 308 match is good stuff and real accurate. There is no steel in it at all. A 3/4 neomodium magnet would not stick. It seems to be very clean. And the 168 grain match rounds are real Sierra Match King bullets.

It's not illegal immigration, it's an invasion


If you want peace, prepare for war.

'In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.'

I've never even seen the .308 match Privi. Do you like it as much as Federal Gold?

SMKs are a great start.
