This holiday season I've been noticing that many retailers are selling 62 grain "penetrator" ammo manufactured by Lake City but privately branded. None of the private brands carry the green paint customarily applied to the penetrator rounds. The vendors assert that the ammo is otherwise identical to their usual XM855.
How do you feel about this? (as some have mentioned the green tips are helpful in keeping your ammo sorted, providing a quick visual indicator).
Also: do you think this is a reflection of a reduction of MILITARY ammo demand or one anticipated?
Here's a couple of the adverts I've see:
