That is a trap, DHS tries to buy up more of your supplies ....

My tinfoil hat tells me that they are recalling it because it contains some of their special paint. You know, the special paint that gives it "a green penetrating tip".

Can anyone tell me where I can find that special paint that turns a regular bullet into a special penetrating one???

I thought it turned them into the heat seeking bullets that take down airplanes!?! Lol

I would pull the bullets, save the powder, and reload it. I don't trust it right now, unless Olin immediately REPLACES the ammo.

contact the company to exchange it at no cost to the consumer.

As soon as the company receives the package, a replacement box will be shipped out.

Looks like they are replacing it.

Looks like they are replacing it.

Yeah with all the ammo shortages going on. I think there will be alot of people standing next to their mailboxes for a long time

Dang, I picked up a couple loose stripper clips of 5.56 M855 at the WV gun show. I have no way of knowing what lot number those are from.
