Since 1922, Federal Ammunition has been providing hunters and shooters with high-quality shotshell, centerfire and rimfire ammunition. From their humble beginnings among the lakes and woods of Minnesota, Federal Ammunition has evolved into one of the world's largest and most reliable manufacturers of sporting ammunition.
Lake City 7.62 x 51 NATO Ammo is arguably the best 7.62 Military ammo manufactured. This ammunition is boxer primed, sealed primer and projectile, reloadable brass cased, and not packed in individual boxes. This is the original US Military Lake City XM80 projectiles firing at 2700 fps. This is identical to the ammo issued to the US military.
