IGMAN 5.56 M193 55GR FMJ.
Anyone have any experience with this ammo?

I’ve read mostly good things about it but some bad reviews, some old, some more recent reviews.

It’s .45 cents/round and still in stock. Makes me wonder why?

I've never used Igman ammo, but wouldn't balk at it at that price. From what I've read, it's non-corrosive & reloadable brass.

Regarding the price on 2A Warehouse's website they may have had it way overpriced for current market demand & may be dropping it to offloaded inventory that's been sitting idle. That's just my guess. SGAmmo has been reducing some prices to move inventory, & I'm wondering if retailers are taking a slight loss between what they paid & what it's selling for now.

It’s consistently the cheapest price of all that I could find back when I originally posted and today so I don’t think it’s overpriced for market conditions I just think it’s probably junk and that’s why it constantly sits on the shelf. Junk is worth less at any price.

I could be wrong about Igman. If it had rave reviews and a good reputation I would buy but mixed reviews and never heard of it. I’ll spend $50 more for $1000 for a known quantity
