Some of the best for using in an AR.

Tight primer pockets, very consistent and tough as hell.

Glad to hear you lads like the PMC brass.

When I bought my AR and put a scope on it I took out about 5-6 different brands of ammo to sight in with, test for accuracy and run them through my chronograph.

The PMC turned up the best accuracy and also the highest velocity of the factory ammo that I tried. So I bought a few boxes of it.

Flash holes are off center from time to time so watch that if using the older crimped PMC brass.

PMC 55gr will outshoot anything else unless it has a primo/match bullet.

I will second what John Burns and take a knee says.

I acquired 200 rounds of pmc 55gr. fmj w/primers crimped and the 'PSD' headstamp in 97'.

The ammo shot right with our handloads in the B.I.L's AR and in my ruger bolt rifle accuracy wise. Never did chrono the stuff, just tried it on paper to see where it wanted to be, which was very close to the handloads again and went to kill'n yotes and other vermin.

Reloaded all the brass 2-3 times now and the primer pockets stay tight. Some after a few firings need trimmed but thats it.

I found that PMC w/PSD headstamp brass, to be damn good stuff.
