    Default IMI M855 5.56

    What is everyone's experience with this Israeli made ammunition? I'm thinking it must be good, but would like to know what others think?

    Great stuff. If you can get it for less than Widener's current price, jump on it.

    There's a good accuracy thread over on arfcom that includes the IMI stuff.

    Should have bought tons of it in 2011 when the M193 was .29/rd and the M855 was .31/rd shipped

    With many thousands of rounds shot personally.. it doesn't get any better. I've heard (read rumor) that Winchester White Box is IMI rejects at the Olin plant in Israel. Most people will agree that Win White Box is good too.
    I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

    Now how is that possible to switch headstamps from WW to IMI?

    Haha that's what I was thinking. Unless they're pulls, but that just doesn't seem feasible for either party.

    Yep this. I bought a couple cases each around that price and wish I had more.

    I think you are thinking about Independence 5.56. It is made by IMI but they are not rejects.
