Does anyone know which company produces the ammo for the M16/M4 and other weapons?

Lots of companies. The main manufacturer is the Lake City ammo plant, headstamp LC.

some say it's good, some say it's ****

It isn't a combat round. It isn't loaded hot enough to compare to M193 or M855.

Check out Black Hills. They make several loads suitable for the 20 inch and forshorter barrels. Somenew stuff,and somereloadsofLake City that is awesome. The LC reload stuff is the equal ofthe Federal match stuff and way cheaper.

Note, some of the heavier bullet weights are not for the short barrels.

I see where you're coming from. My comment was aimed more at civilian shooters rather than soldiers.
