Buy recommendations QUESTION - MRA RENEGADE AMMO (16" barrel - 5.56/2.23)

My Renegade is on the way and I'm looking for suggestion for ammo.

I went to the local Bass Pro and the lady behind the counter said she wasn't able to talk to me about the Renegade because they didn't sell it.

I know to stay away from steel ammo. Is there any bulk people recommend?
This is my first rifle, so I still have some learning to do when it comes to ammo.

pmc bronze .223 runs just fine in it but supply issues has made stock scarce/ everyone who ordered a Makasi / Carmel is scooping up whatever they can get their hands on. (myself included)

I usually just run Winchester m855 through mine, but my range is rated up to .50 so that might be an issue depending on where you shoot.

My renegade took about 4-500 rounds to really break in and feel buttery, but runs just fine out the box.

Id swap out the stock when it arrives, the factory stock/grip aint great.

both come in bulk packs of 200
