    American Eagle AE223 OK for Target??


    Gander Mountain has a sale on American Eagle AE223 caliber 55grain 100 round box for 29.99. It seems too good of a deal to pass up.
    Anybody use these and have any comments. Target only is my use. .30 cents per round.

    Thanks

    The accuracy probably isnt going to be very good.

    Fine for "blasting" or plinking ammo - won't let you see how good you or your rifle is though.

    The brass alone is worth 20.00$ per 100 so look at it this way, 10.00$ for 100 rounds. Then the brass is custom formed to your chamber and able to be reloaded.
    What&#39;s not to like? No it&#39;s not the most accurate, but for the money you can hit a clay pigeon at 200 yards on a berm.
