Theoretically...
M193 is actual milspec, manufactured for a government contract and meeting all requirements.
XM193 is a commercial clone. May or may not be the exact same as the milspec. In practice I doubt you could tell the difference.
In reality there is no commercial enforcement of the nomenclature.
PMC M193 X-TAC is not milspec, but is some very good stuff.

10-4, I kind of want to practice with the M193. 35 cents a round is reasonable.

If you shoot that X-TAC stuff at night, you won't need a floodlight..........the muzzle flash will light it up.

510 round case - 5.56mm M193 56 Grain FMJ Military Ammo Made by MEN in Germany - MEN556A Jimmy, I haven't shot any but I picked up a bunch of spent cases at the range after this years Shot Show, where they were demoing it. I haven"t reloaded any yet. It runs heavy, like IMI. Nice heavy web and thick walls at the base. I like that nice radius at the web/wall interface. The Germans make good stuff, I'd buy it. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s613/jsw7152/IMI%20vs.%20MEN_zps2w60gpy0.jpg)

you do see a lot of PMC, which works fine nary a misfire, but pretty sure its not as hot as IMI M193.
