223 (5.56) Ammo
.223 Remington ammunition and 5.56x45 NATO are closely related and sometimes interchangeable cartridges depending on the firearm they are to be used with. Manufacturers typically offer guidance on this point. In general, the 5.56 NATO ammunition the military uses and is for sale to the civilian market operates at higher pressures than .223 Remington ammo. Most, but not all, AR-15s are chambered for 5.56 NATO and can fire both types of ammo.
Many loads in both calibers follow the M193 or M855 standard, both of which are military specifications. M193 ammo typically fires a 55 grain full metal jacket bullet at 3,240 feet per second, while M855 ammo fires a heavier 62 grain FMJ bullet at about 3,100 feet per second. These common standards are very helpful when sighting in your optics and you'll find both cartridges in-stock and available in cheap bulk packs here at Widener's
Certain specialized loads deviate from these common standards. Competition grade .223/5.56 ammo fires a heavier bullet (most commonly a Sierra MatchKing) in the 77 grain range to provide better stability and more predictable trajectories; varmint loads, on the other hand, fire light 30-40 grain bullets at very high velocities to produce lethal fragmentation against pest animals.
One of the most sought after range loads for this caliber is Lake City ammunition, which is produced by Federal Premium Ammunition at the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant in Independence, Missouri. LCAAP production is typically excess from government contracts and is popular due to its military origins and high quality.

There he was, trying to blow down a house made of bricks, when what he should have done was kick down the Third Little Pig’s door and indiscriminately spray inside the home with an AR-15. Maybe that is a little dark, though, even for a classic fairytale.
In any event, there’s no wonder which ammo the Big Bad Wolf would have chosen for so wanton an act of mayhem: these 223 Rem cartridges by Wolf itself. Because wolves don’t work, he would have greatly appreciated these rounds’ low cost steel casings, which still feed and extract reliably thanks to their glossy polymer coating. He would have approved of the round’s responsive primer, as well as its charge of clean burning propellant. And while this round’s 55 grain FMJ projectile may not be optimal to pepper a hog with, that the Big Bad Wolf could easily have afforded to dump a whole magazine of these rounds would have more than compensated for that shortcoming.Customer Reviews

Or order it so you can fire it all as fast as possible. Igman makes everything possible thanks to their state-of-the-art ammo factory in Bosnia and Herzegovina!
M193 spec 5.56 is perfect for learning the fundamentals of shooting, just like it's good for keeping your existing skills sharp. This is the same kind of ammo the Army issues for training and combat alike. The full metal jacket projectile has a solid point profile, so it will not expand while pushing against a soft medium. It will hit hard, however, and probably fragment apart following close-range impact.
This ammo is loaded with noncorrosive Boxer primers and clean-burning spherical propellant. Red sealant protects those primers against humidity and water. This ammo is also loaded with new, never before fired reloadable brass cases. Since they’re military-grade cases, they weren’t buffed up after they were correctly annealed at the factory. The discoloration is purely cosmetic. -

This bulk pack of 1,000 rounds comes all together in one big cardboard box. Open it once, and it’ll be as open as its ever going to get!
Winchester’s USA line of ammunition is an old favorite among shooting enthusiasts all across the country. This 223 cartridge delivers essentially identical performance to the U.S. military’s 5.56 M193 load. Its 55 grain bullet is loaded to a muzzle velocity of 3,240 fps, and as an FMJ it’s perfect for plinking, training and target shooting. This bullet’s jacket wears a cannelure that puts a stop to setback under recoil force, and it is completely nonmagnetic for range compliance purposes.
This reloadable ammo’s non-corrosive Boxer primers are socketed inside newly minted brass cases. You’ll notice the brass is darker around the case mouth – that’s just a harmless byproduct of the heat-treatment process Winchester uses to strengthen their cases, not the result of having been previously fired. -

What a preposterous question. So long as you own a 5.56 or 223 rifle and plan on existing for at least another hour, you can always find good use for another 1,000 rounds of ammo!
This ammunition hails from Independence, MO. That’s where it was manufactured by the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, the U.S. government’s primary small arms ammo supplier. Winchester manages the operation which turns out a staggering four million rounds daily!
This ammo certainly doesn’t reinvent the wheel. Its 55 grain full metal jacket consists of a nonmagnetic lead core, streamlined copper jacket, and cannelure that preserves seating depth during recoil. You’ll need a 20” barrel to witness the round’s 3,240 fps muzzle velocity, but a barrel of any length should capably direct such simple bullets downrange.
This is brand new and recently manufactured ammo, complete with noncorrosive Boxer primers and reloadable brass cases. The cases are indeed darker around their necks, but that is solely because they weren’t buffed up after they were tempered for added strength. This is bulk ammo – one single box contains all 1,000 cartridges. -

So long as your firearm is chambered for 5.56x45 and you like thinking ahead, this case of ammo by Winchester is a much-needed addition to your stockpile.
This is just about the most elemental ammo you could have on hand. Each cartridge is faithfully loaded according to M193 specifications, with a full metal jacket bullet to prevent feeding issues and accelerated barrel leading. You won’t get expansion out of an FMJ, but you’ll still get the kind of terminal ballistics that prove so effective for home defense. At 55 grains this round’s bullet reliably achieves a muzzle velocity in the range of 3,180 fps. That’ll treat you to the satisfyingly flat trajectory you need to thread distant targets.
Winchester’s USA ammo features newly forged brass cases, sensitive and non-corrosive Boxer primers for reloadability, and of course clean-burning powder. Don’t look for any steel in this nonmagnetic ammo – you won’t find it! -

As a result, this 1000 bulk pack of 5.56mm has a few features that you won't find in usual lots of inexpensive ammo. These XP193 rounds are great for rainy day storage, high round count classes, practice sessions, fun plinking, and building a ballistic chart close to NATO-spec M193.
Like M193, these XP193 rounds feature 55 grain bullets which are compatible with the widest range of barrel lengths and twists of AR, SCAR, ACR, and other 5.56x45mm chambered rifles. The full metal jacket boat tail (FMJ-BT) projectiles feature a toothed cannelure which prevents round setback during rough handling or repeated loading and live ejection; bullet setback can affect accuracy or even cause catastrophic firearm failure. In addition, the reloadable brass casings have a consistent coat of sealant surrounding their non-corrosive Boxer primers which prevents moisture from entering the cartridge and creating dud rounds. The casings are also annealed for added strength to prevent pressure-induced malfunctions and guarantee long brass life for reloaders.
PMC ammunition is produced in South Korea on some of the same tooling and machines used to supply NATO countries with war-fighting ammo. These bulk packs are highly regarded among American shooters for their inexpensive cost, high reliability, and adherence to M193 specification.

As a result, these rounds will match ballistic tables and ballistic drop compensation (BDC) reticles commonly used with modern low power scopes. The reloadable brass casings are annealed at the neck and shoulder for added strength (useful to reloaders) while the non-corrosive Boxer primers are bordered by moisture-blocking sealant. The bullets are full metal jacket (FMJ) and possess toothed cannelures to prevent projectile setback.
PMC is a South Korean based company that sources its ammunition from plants that supply to the ROK military as well as other to other NATO countries. Their X-TAC line is highly regarded for adhering to stringent military specification while still maintaining an inexpensive price for all shooters.
*While this is not armor-penetrating ammunition by definition, some ranges will not allow these rounds to be fired indoors nor outdoors on certain steel targets.

Best M855 I’ve shot
-
I’ve purchased dozens of cases of PMC XTAC M855 because they shoot great in both my 16” 1:7 spin carbine and my 20” 1;9 barrels. Also, they have EXCELLENT brass cases for reloading and last many reloads/firing cycles.
If you want to store these long term, they are sealed completely and should last for decades if stored in a clean sealed container.
BTW, when I started buying these ~10 years ago, they $.17/rnd. Save your brass even if you don’t reload yourself.Review by Pasky2112 (Posted on 8/14/2021)

PMC Bronze ammunition comes from South Korea out of the some of the most sophisticated and efficient manufacturing plants. A length of experience producing ammunition for NATO countries as well as adherence to U.S. standard tolerances has a resulted in inexpensive ammo with high reliability.
These cartridges are constructed using reloadable brass casings fitted with non-corrosive Boxer primers and topped by full metal jacket boat-tail (FMJ-BT) bullets. The bullets weigh in at 55 grains which is a standard across the board for the caliber and will stabilize with the widest ranges of barrel lengths and twists. In addition, the boat tail tapered rear of the bullet reduces drag and increases accuracy. This bulk pack of 1,000 rounds is great to stock up on for matches and classes and has been specifically recommended by some training companies like the United States Shooting Academy (USSA).

PMC Bronze is great ammo. Im on my fourth case right now, and I love it. Zero failures. With my Daniel Defense 16" Carbine and an ACOG I was effortlessly hitting 24" square steel at 500yds with 55gr! I prefer it to other ammo as most other brand 5.56 has the dirty looking annealing burn marks on the neck of the cartridge, but PMC takes the time to polish that off. It doesnt affect function of course, but it is a really nice touch. Quality ammo, buy with confidence.

They can’t claim to have made 5.56x45 ammo for quite that long (for reasons we hope we don’t have to explain), but they’ve certainly mastered all the ins and outs of America’s favorite centerfire cartridge!
This is Winchester’s most fundamental kind of 5.56, and therefore absolutely perfect for casual and serious target shooting alike. The M193 spec cartridge sports a 55 grain projectile, which is light enough to achieve a muzzle velocity that is just shy of three times faster than the speed of sound. The full metal jacket projectile’s economical design makes it optimal for high-volume shooting, yet it still provides the consistent accuracy discerning marksmen demand. The non-expanding solid point FMJ is made of lead and copper, thus making this ammo absolutely nonmagnetic.
This ammo’s military-grade brass cases are reloadable, and they have never before seen the light of day. They’re not grayish around their necks because they have previously been fired, but rather because they weren’t polished after they were made more durable via annealing. Noncorrosive Boxer-primed, clean-shooting, and packaged 50 boxes per case of 1,000! -

Real operators want 5.56x45 M855 ammunition, which has strong steel core bullets!
This AR-15 round’s FMJ doesn't have a pure steel core, of course. Only the frontal section of the M855 bullet’s core is made of steel, but that’s all it needs to rip through sheet metal like it’s made out of gingerbread. This ammo’s magnetic bullets aren’t suitable for use at all commercial ranges, and they will probably damage AR500 targets, but M855 ammo is still great to have on hand for casual target shooting and serious self-defense scenarios alike.
At 62 grains, the M855 bullet is a little heavier than the usual M193 load’s 55 grain bullet. That gives it greater momentum downrange, which in turn promotes tighter accuracy. Just make sure you have a barrel with a 1:8 or 1:9 twist if you want to witness that accuracy in person!
This is new production ammo from Illinois, not something that has been gathering dust in a U.S. Army storeroom. It has non-corrosive Boxer primers and reloadable brass cases, the latter of which have been very obviously heat treated for added suppleness.Customer Reviews

Reliable.

I've been buying this ammo for years. I've fired thousands of rounds through 2 carbines and a rifle with zero malfunctions!! It doesn't have match grade accuracy, but it's plenty accurate enough and very reliable. I use it for target shooting and coyote hunting. It goes through a coyote, killing them without any pelt damage at all due to the non expanding bullet.

It stands for consistent quality and satisfying target-grade accuracy that you’ll want to take with you whenever you visit the range.
Winchester manufactures their white box ammo specifically for the civilian shooter. They did load this 5.56x45 ammo to our military’s M193 specifications, however, which means it offers the same kind of performance which most veterans of the Armed Forces must already be familiar with.
This cartridge has a 55 grain full metal jacket projectile. At that weight it achieves a steady 3,180 fps muzzle velocity, which will keep it traveling at supersonic speed until around 700 yards – well beyond the 5.56’s effective range. The FMJ’s hard jacket promotes positive functioning in a semi-auto courtesy of its ability to feed smoothly and prevent rapid fouling. This round’s FMJ cannot expand inside soft tissue, although it may fragment apart at higher velocities.
This ammo also sports virgin brass cases. You will notice that they are discolored in the areas where they were annealed, which indicates that the brass is elastic enough to return to its original dimensions after ignition. Alongside their non-corrosive Boxer primers, that makes this ammo’s cases perfect for handloaders. -

Federal Premium simply adds an X to the designation to point out that their American Eagle ammo wasn’t made for the military. It was made for sharpshooting civilians such as yourself!
This cartridge is loaded with the most popular projectile among AR enthusiasts: the 55 grain full metal jacket. The lightweight bullet demonstrates a flat, accurate trajectory, and it can’t undergo transonic destabilization until it’s flown well past 700 yards. The FMJ’s boat tail serves to minimize drag and help the bullet resist wind deflection. No part of the bullet contains steel, so you’re all clear to take this ammo to any range which prohibits magnetic ammo.
These brand new cartridges feature sensitive noncorrosive Boxer primers and precision-formed brass cases. The cases are reloadable, but they are not reloaded – they’re darker around their shoulders because they have been made suppler via annealing (aka heat treatment).
All 420 rounds come inside a big plastic bag, which itself is stored in a factory fresh military spec steel ammo can. The can’s lid features a rubber gasket and latch that work together to keep humidity and dust away from your valuable ammo! -

That’s not because Winchester sought to cut down on production costs by implementing bimetal jackets, but rather because they manufactured these rounds according to M855 specifications!
Each cartridge sports a 62 grain penetrator bullet. Its tip is only green because it is painted, not made of polymer. That indicates the front end of its core is made of pure steel. Steel hardens the bullet’s tip substantially, giving the shooter a huge advantage when he wants to penetrate sheet metal.
Magnetic bullets are not permitted at some indoor ranges because the steel inside them could create sparks or damage range equipment. You’ll want to call ahead to check a range’s policy on magnetic ammo before you take M855 to their premises. Steel can also cause a ricochet, making this ammo a poor choice for tactical training with steel targets!
Our customers are often concerned about the appearance of this ammo’s cases. To be certain, this is not reloaded ammo – the manufacturer just skipped buffing out the grayness on the cases after heat-treating them. -

We put regular unleaded in our Italian sports cars, and we only buy dog food that is made out of extant animals. We even shoot steel cased ammo, like these 223 Rem cartridges by Wolf. They’re just too good of a deal to pass up on, even if you wear a tuxedo to your kids’ school plays.
This round’s a great deal owing to its steel casing. We’d say that the biggest drawback of steel is that it’s no good for handloading, but if you like so many others don’t bother to handload anyway, that shortcoming is about as moot as can be. Wolf applies a proprietary polymer treatment to their casings, so you can expect smooth and reliable performance out of any platform of rifle, even a semi-auto as you’re rapidly firing it.

Furthermore, they should all buy that ammo from us. If you would like to lead by example, then we invite you to order a case of Federal Premium American Eagle 5.56 … from us!
This is true military spec ammunition, with the 55 grain full metal jacket bullet that earns it the M193 classification ( Federal adds an “X” to show that it’s made for civilians instead of the troops). The solid point bullet won’t widen out if it plows into soft tissue. It may rupture apart into multiple fragments, but that doesn’t qualify as the terminal expansion you would want while you’re hunting deer or other medium size game. The uncomplicated FMJ merely has the dense lead core and hard copper jacket it requires to feed and fire reliably in all semi-auto firearms. This ammo’s bullets don’t contain steel, so they’re 100% compliant for target shooting at all ranges.
This ammo’s strong and uniform brass cases promise predictable functionality in all 5.56 firearms. Each case contains clean-burning propellant and a noncorrosive Boxer primer, and is durable enough to be reloaded more times than you could count on one hand. The cases weren’t shined up after they were heat-treated, but that cosmetic difference has no bearing on performance at the range or on the reloading table. -

They will tell you no, and they’ll probably look at you funny. But you can still get that ammo thanks to Federal!
This M193 ammunition is exactly what our Armed Forces would use. It’s even made at the same factory, but its designation is XM193 because it is loaded specifically for the civilian market.
This cartridge has a nonmagnetic FMJ projectile. Its gilding metal exterior hardens the bullet to prevent deformation during ignition, and it also helps to keep lead away from a barrel’s rifling. Encircling the its midsection is a cannelure that helps prevent the bullet from shifting around in its seating. At the base of the bullet is a boat tail, a feature that helps it retain greater velocity downrange so it can fly straighter and hit harder on impact. This is a non-expanding bullet, although an M193 does have a tendency to fragment as it burrows into soft tissue.
Ammo that’s loaded by the Lake City Army Ammunition plant receives virgin brass cases. They may look like they’ve already been fired, but that discoloration is in fact the natural byproduct of the heat-treatment process which makes brass more supple. Military-grade non-corrosive Boxer primers always spark up on cue, and they’re replaceable so you can reload this ammo’s brass cases! -

The FMJ is sleek, balanced, and doesn’t contain any metals that can attract a magnet. Just a good old-fashioned lead-alloy core and copper-alloy jacket.
Igman’s new production ammunition features clean-burning propellant, sealed noncorrosive Boxer primers, and never-before-fired reloadable brass cases. The cases’ cosmetic discoloration is a byproduct of the heat-treatment process which makes brass suppler and more durable. Aside from their shininess, there’s no difference between unpolished and polished cases! -

NOT for Indoor Ranges or Steel Targets

You can NOT shoot this ammo at an indoor range or steel targets because this ammo was made to penetrate steel. This ammo was clean, accurate and I have never had any malfunctions. I chronographed this ammo and the velocity was consistent. I would highly recommend and this brass is great for reloading, so make sure to collect it.

This ammo’s cases are brand new. They weren’t polished after they were annealed, but they are just as reliable and reloadable as the shiniest cases on the market. This is new ammo – not military surplus – with noncorrosive Boxer primers and low-fouling powder. -

Each round is built using a reloadable brass casing mated to a non-corrosive Boxer primer via solid seating and primer sealant; this compound prevents moisture from penetrating through to reach the clean-burning propellant. The casings are also firmly crimped to the toothed cannelure of each bullet to prevent setback and optimize reliability.
The projectile used in this cartridge design is a non-penetrating, 62 grain full metal jacket boat tail (FMJ-BT) bullet that is not attracted to a magnet. The rear curvature of the FMJ-BT shape resists drag and is less susceptible to in-flight shift. This combines with a well-studied 62 grain weight to provide shooters with accurate and predictable ballistic performance. Federal's American Eagle line is intended to be a low-cost plinking solution that doesn't skip out on quality enhancements.

Lo and behold – the perfect substitute, courtesy of Fiocchi! This Missouri-made 223 Rem range ammunition is loaded with 62 grain bullets and delivers a muzzle velocity of 3,000 fps. Those stats make this nonmagnetic ammo’s ballistic performance almost indistinguishable from that of our military’s penetrator load!
This round’s bullet is more than just nonmagnetic. As a full metal jacket boat tail it features a slightly tapered base which minimizes drag to help conserve downrange momentum, an evenly distributed jacket and core which assure satisfactory in-flight stability, and a ballistically efficient solid point profile. Don’t expect terminal expansion from an FMJBT – but don’t expect a varmint to survive an encounter with one, either.
Fiocchi fits each one of these rounds with a virgin brass case, noncorrosive Boxer primer and charge of low-residue propellant. A swell choice for any 5.56/223 rifle, semi-automatic or otherwise! -

One magazine. This single box of 5.56x45 ammunition by Winchester is all you need to demonstrate your mastery of your AR-15 rifle – or save the day.
Winchester didn’t make this ammo for the military, but they did make it to the military’s M193 specifications. That means it has the 5.56’s traditional 55 grain FMJ bullet, which has a solid lead core and hard copper alloy jacket. This type of bullet is most popular for target shooting, although it’s not at all unsuitable for self-defense (it’s just not as effective as an expanding bullet like a soft point or polymer tip). This smooth-feeding bullet also features a cannelure, which keeps it right where it’s meant to be seated in its case.
That case is made of solid brass and has never before seen the light of day. You can see where its neck and shoulder were annealed, which is a heat-treatment process that makes brass more elastic. That’s why this ammo’s cases expand so reliably to seal the chamber during ignition, and also why they make great reloading components. This ammo is both nonmagnetic and non-corrosive for versatile and clean performance. -

So long as you have at least one rifle chambered for 5.56x45 or 223 Rem, you have every reason you need to order this bread and butter 223 Rem ammo.
Winchester loads this round with a 55 grain full metal jacket projectile. It’s as elemental as AR-15 bullets come thanks to its solid lead core, gilding metal jacket, and absence of steel or any other metals which would have attracted a magnet. The bullet’s 0.274 G1 BC enables it to retain half of its original velocity at 530 yards, so you can look forward to a flat trajectory no matter your target’s range. The bullet’s cannelure ensures it stays seated at the right depth so you can avoid a failure to feed.
Winchester’s nonmagnetic ammunition is also non-corrosive and clean-burning. Its brass cases are furthermore brand new. These particular rounds’ new production cases have been fortified via heat treatment, but the annealing marks weren’t subsequently buffed out at the factory. -

This is one of America’s favorite solutions for target practice!
This 223 cartridge is loaded to standard M193 specifications: 55 grain FMJ bullet, 3,240 fps muzzle velocity. Federal’s FMJ additionally features a boat tail – a tapering base that mitigates in-flight drag to increase the amount of velocity the bullet can retain downrange. With its ballistic coefficient of 0.269, a bullet like this easily flies faster than 1,900 fps when it passes 400 yards!
This is military-grade ammo, but it was specifically produced for the civilian market. You will notice that its brass cases are visibly annealed. The discoloration is purely cosmetic, and indicates that the brass was heat-treated so it can expand to seal the chamber more efficiently and return to its original dimensions following ignition. Federal’s Boxer primers and propellant are both clean-burning and intensely reliable. Stock up now – ammo like this goes fast! -

Hornady Frontier 223 Rem 68 Grain BTHP Match – 500 Rounds
$349.85Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 68 Grain Bullet Type Hollow-Point Boat Tail (HP-BT) Use Type match or precision shooting, plinking at the range Casing Type Brass Quantity 500 Ammo Caliber 223 Remington Manufacturer SKU FR160 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 10090255711384 Cost Per Round 70.0¢ per round This 223 Rem ammo by Hornady Frontier is designed solely around accuracy. No varmint, predator or home intruder would sign up to get hit by its heavyweight 68 grain projectile, of course, but sharpshooters will find this ammo of especial value at the rifle range!
This cartridge showcases Hornady’s own BTHP Match bullet. Its Advanced Manufacturing Process jacket possesses virtually zero flaws in its concentricity, and its form-fitted swaged lead core only serves to further heighten its rotational stability. The BTHP Match’s secant ogive profile also promotes better balance, and alongside its tapered base ensures the bullet retains sufficient momentum to achieve an impressive 0.355 G1 ballistic coefficient.
This round’s 2,960 fps muzzle velocity was recorded using a 24” barrel. A 1:8” twist barrel is optimal for a 68 grain bullet like this, but you’ll certainly get by with a 1:9” or 1:7” twist as well. Although a hollow point by design, the BTHP Match is not engineered to deliver terminal expansion.
This Frontier label ammo is loaded with military-grade brass cases, Boxer primers and clean-burning powder. The cases are brand new, visibly annealed and perfect for handloading! -
Hornady Frontier 5.56x45 68 Grain BTHP Match – 500 Rounds

That means you get to benefit from the work of one of the finest military-grade ammunition producers in the whole world! This round’s brass casing is top notch stuff, the kind you can depend on to cycle efficiently and be of great value time and time again at your reloading bench. Lake City’s state of the industry loading process yielded an intensely reliable primer and propellant charge for this round as well, and their intensive quality assurance protocol ensured that everything came together perfectly for your hungry rifle.
Hornady would never let anyone else make one of their bullets, though -- that’s their forte. As such this round’s 68 grain projectile features its maker’s signature AMP jacket, which has virtually zero variation in its concentricity, as well as a swaged lead core, ballistically efficient boat tail, and perfectly centered hollow point meplat. This is a bullet that begs to be used in a competition, although for the round’s price tag you won’t mind doing whatever you like with it! -
Winchester Super-X 223 Rem 55 Grain HPBT – 500 Rounds
$349.85Manufacturer Winchester Condition New Bullet Weight 55 Grain Bullet Type Hollow-Point Boat Tail (HP-BT) Use Type plinking at the range, varmint hunting Casing Type Brass Quantity 500 Ammo Caliber 223 Remington Manufacturer SKU W223HP55 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 00020892230569 Cost Per Round 70.0¢ per round Are you out of 223 Rem ammo? That’s the worst way you can be. Let us help you have a whole lot of 223 Rem ammo by shipping you a case of Winchester’s multi-talented Super-X! These uncomplicated cartridges will fully satisfy your expectations during target practice, and they’ll turn any varmint into buzzard bait just as effectively!
This cartridge features a boat tail hollow point (or hollow point boat tail – whichever you prefer). The small opening in the bullet’s tip won’t deliver significant terminal expansion. It is there because the bullet’s concentric copper-alloy jacket was created first, and subsequently filled with molten lead. The lead hardened to create a voidless, uniformly distributed core, which serves to keep the projectile balanced in flight. The bullet’s boat tail helps to decrease the amount of drag it stirs up in flight, which promotes a flatter and easier-to-aim trajectory – as well as greater energy transfer on impact.
This is newly manufactured ammunition, complete with noncorrosive Boxer primers and reloadable brass cases. Don’t be put off by the cases’ grayish necks. The discoloration indicates that the cases were manufactured correctly – they simply weren’t buffed up after they were made suppler via heat-treatment. -

$14.00Manufacturer Sellier & Bellot Condition New Bullet Weight 55 Grain Bullet Type Soft-Point (SP) Use Type varmint hunting Casing Type Brass Quantity 20 Ammo Caliber 223 Remington Manufacturer SKU SB223B Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 754908510054 Cost Per Round 70.0¢ per round Sellier and Bellot has been around since 1825 and has since been credited with mastery over dependable ammo components and quality cartridge assembly. As such, these affordable .223 Remington rounds will make a great choice for feeding your custom AR, stock Mini-14, or any appropriately chambered rifle in between. Each round is put together using a reloadable brass casing that has been checked over for proper dimensions for strength. The case hosts a non-corrosive Boxer primer which sends a spark to a clean-burning measure of propellant.
Each round utilizes a 55-grain soft point projectile which is weighted to match numerous training loads for both .223 Remington and 5.56x45mm; this allows shooters to use a preestablished zero while enjoying fairly comfortable recoil while hunting. The soft point bullet has a bare lead nose which expands upon impact with a target, causing the round to flatten out its tip for calculated yawing and slight tumbling.
