For those wondering who AAC is, they are the Ammunition Manufacturer started and owned by Palmetto State Armory (PSA)

That is fantastic news. Very welcome development in the ammo industry it will be interesting to see if they sell components at a later date when they get caught up

They've been selling bullets for some time now.

There was/is a thread on AR15.com about a member having accuracy issues with their 55 grain FMJ.  The company president caught wind of the thread and issue, offered an all expenses paid trip out to their factory.  The guy got a tour and was able to  try out bullets as they came off the line, reloaded them and shoot them at their range.

Pretty stand up move and putting your money where your mouth is.

A big plus is that AAC ammo is for the civilian market first, not the military. That commitment is better for regular shooters.

It's time Americans put Americans first, not over-reaching US Government, foreign governments, and foreign militaries.

My brother has been using AAC in 9mm for a while now. All of it has been consistent and accurate out of his Glocks,  75 and PCC. I have not run any through my CZ’s.

They also don’t skimp on the powder charges like some other “budget” ammo brands. It’s a bit hotter than CCI 115 & 124 gn ammo.  Great for practice.

I’ve also been gathering his brass. It’s quality. Very similar dimensionally to Federal. No issues reloading.

I personally like what PSA has done in the last few years. People may scoff, but the Dagger is a fine little pistol and the 2 beater rifles I bought outshoot my DD work guns.


Heck, they resurrected H&R to make Retro AR’s. In my opinion, they have made excellent use of the names they bought when Remington when belly up.

Their 5.56 is great quality for the money, as well as the .300 Blackout supers
