If I am going to buy rifle ammo I will generally look to federal premium loads or blackhills for the .223

About the only time I have ever fired factory ammo is when I needed cases to reload. But lately, I have just been buying 100 empty unprimed cases most of the time.......

Keep yore powder dry!!
