5.56x45mm 55gr FMJ

Built To M193 Standards

M193 is the U.S. Military designation for the standard 5.56 NATO training round: 55gr FMJ projectile, 5.56 NATO pressure, copper-jacketed lead core, boat-tail bullet profile. Every infantry rifle in every armory runs this load for basic marksmanship training. It's the most-shot 5.56 round in American history.

Our 5.56 55gr FMJ is built to that same M193 specification — just remanufactured to bring the price down. Same projectile weight. Same NATO pressure loading. Same C.O.L. Same downrange performance. If it cycles reliably for the U.S. Army's M4 carbines, it'll cycle reliably in your AR.

Choose Your Round Count

Pick a count above. 50 rounds runs you through a short range session; 1,000 covers a two-day carbine course with leftovers; 10,000 handles a year of serious training. Free shipping kicks in at 250 rounds and stays free all the way up.

How We Build It

16-point QC. Every round. No exceptions.

Every Brass Kisses 5.56 cartridge starts as once-fired brass that gets treated like it matters — because it does:

1. Inspected for splits, cracks, and defects
2. Cleaned and pressure-tested on automated Scharch Range Master systems
3. Deprimed with flash holes cleared
4. Primer pockets reamed to accept fresh CCI primers
5. Acid-washed for surface uniformity
6. Resized on proprietary Brass Kisses tooling to strict S.A.A.M.I. spec

Then loaded with premium components — new CCI primers, new Hodgdon powder, new 55gr copper-jacketed FMJ projectiles — on Camdex and Ammo Load Mark L rifle presses. Every batch runs through the 16-point quality control before it ships.

Reliable. Unapologetic. 100% Guaranteed.
