The Winchester WB556MC55D delivers consistent performance for high-volume training and tactical applications with 55-grain full metal jacket boat tail projectiles. This bulk case provides 2,000 rounds of reliable 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition designed for AR-15 platforms and military-specification firearms.
What Makes This Different
Winchester's military contract manufacturing ensures each cartridge meets NATO specifications for pressure and velocity consistency. The boat tail design reduces drag and maintains stability at extended ranges compared to flat-base bullets. Quality control processes include individual case inspection and powder charge verification for uniform performance across all 2,000 rounds.
Key Features
- 55-grain full metal jacket boat tail projectiles for enhanced ballistic coefficient

Range testing demonstrates consistent 2-3 MOA accuracy from quality barrel systems with minimal velocity deviation.
