    On the flip side, Speer .223, Nickel Cased, 64gr Gold Dot (the LE stuff) has shot really well and is basically just as cheap.
    Hunting & Fishing's remanufactured .223 in 50 round boxes is made by Belmont. A lot of people like it. Personally I use new factory ammo.
    That Speer Gold Dot 64 gr. was the best kept secret, at $20 a box!
