Any of you know what the meaning of XM193AF is?
I have seen XM193A but what is the F for?

It's not specifically listed on the Federal web site, but my guess is it has something to do with the packaging.

I think that the XM193AF nomenclature was used for the standard XM193A ammo that was sold on 10rd stripper clips...
F= stripper clip  But that's just a guess... Forrest |
