Does anybody know the difference between:

XM855F

XM855F3

XM855LC AC1

XM855LC 1AC1

If not i will call up my ammo dealer and ask.

Thanks.

While we are at it. Can we talk about the different variances of the standard 55gr. FMJ?

Codes for packaging and in some cases maker. For example XM193F is 20 round box packaging, XM193CBP is 400 round bulk packaging, XM193BK is 1000 round bulk package. IIRC LC denotes Lake City brass and AC1 is 420 rounds on stripper clips.
