Best .223 ammo? Me, of course, if I didn't I'd quit reloading.

This topic was going on the RF forum but I put it on the small caliber forum by mistake.

Fat_Albert,
pardon, for amusing myself at your expense.
I could not in truth answer your question as in the last 20 years and over 57 different chamberings I have not shot more than a dozen rounds of factory ammo with the exception of 22lr, 22WMR and 17HMR.
I would imagine that any of your commercial brands of Ammo would suffice for most purposes.
IIRC Black Hills does some pretty good stuff.

I'll give that a +1.
BH is just some guys like us that went Pro. Consequently their products resemble something you would get from the home press for a good value.

Thing is with this round being so popular most any ammo compatible with your guns twist rate will shoot well to great.This rounds market is huge and they all want as much of it as they can get.What do you plan to use it for?

Depending on your purposes, I believe the Winchester "white box" 45-grain jacketed hollow point load is said to shoot well out of many guys' guns; at least, it did out of a friend's Tikka.
