Go ahead and correct me if I'm wrong, but, NATO Specification ammo is called such because of the tolorences established by NATO concerning the manufacture of the ammo. For instance each bullet must conform to maximun and minimun tolorences for wieght, overall length, overall diameter, ogive curvature, bullet composition and jacket thickness consistancy. Then the powder is scrutinized the same, as well as the case and primer. Then the manufacturing process is regulated, how it's put together, how it is packaged, ect.
Bottom line is that it really doesn't matter, when ammo is NATO spec, it's just that, designed to operate the same in any NATO weapons system, it doesn't matter if the ammo is intended for an FN/FAL and shot through a G-3. It will all shoot roughly same.
I say roughly because whenever we changed lot numbers on the firing line, we would re-zero for the change in manufactuer/lot, and usually it was a very minor point of impact differance.

Yea, but some people still have their preferences. I just recently found some swiss Nato SS109 stuff. Don't know if its worth the money though. I've always been fond of the british stuff and lake city aresenal. And honestly I can take the same gun on the same day, and group two different lots, and get two totally different groups. So even though everything is within specs, some seem to hold those specs a little better than others.
If I'm wrong please correct me, I won't be offended.
