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.

    WOLF specializes in ammo for high-volume target shooters. They create affordable options for autoloading rifles and handguns, all without sacrificing performance and ballistics.

    If you want a rifle cartridge that delivers tremendous speed with outstanding accuracy, then the .223 Remington should be at the top of your list.

    We gotta pose a serious question to you. Do you really need fancy packaging in order to enjoy your 223 Rem target ammo? If your answer is “I’m a simple kind of man or lady who can make do with most any kind of packaging, as a matter of fact,” then American Quality Ammunition’s big loose-packed box of 223 Rem ammo is going to appeal to your sensibilities in a big way.

    This is real target shootin’ stuff, no two ways about it. You don’t need anything more technologically sophisticated than this round’s 55 grain full metal jacket if you just want to print holes around a bullseye (or inside the bullseye, if you’re really sharp).

    The FMJ has a lead core and copper-alloy jacket: the two reasons why it can’t attract a magnet. It’s also got a cannelure to keep recoil from yanking it out of the case mouth. That very same bullet is suspended in the mouth of a new brass case, atop a nest of clean-burning powder with a noncorrosive Boxer primer to set events into motion.

    Load up on some high quality, low cost ammunition for your favorite AR or other .223/5.56mm caliber rifle. PMC Bronze ammunition comes from South Korea out of 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 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).

    Ammo was nicely boxed and performed great.

    It was low priced. But I was pleasantly surprised that it was boxed well in 20 round boxes and it looked great. Performed well too, just as all remington ammo has in the past. I like the brass, its a little heavier than other makes and reloads well.

    Excellent ammo for the price

    Excellent ammo for the price. Runs very good and clean, no problems with whatsoever.

    Review by Madmax (Posted on 9/19/2016)

    even better than expected

    I was looking for better accuracy than I'd found with _ _ _ _ M193 type ammo and reviews indicated the PMC was the answer. Bought a case to function test a new M-4(gery) for another shooter. This ammo is topnotch-more accurate than the carbine's owner can utilize. I just wish I'd bought two cases and kept one.

    Review by Mobuck (Posted on 9/12/2016)

    Great ammo with a great price!

    Great price for 1000 rounds. 200 rounds through my Daniel Defense so far and had no problems. Need to order more before Jan 1 since I'm in CA.

    Review by Kamera (Posted on 7/31/2016)

    200 Rounds Fired So Far: 0 Complaints

    The ammo came in a convenient packaging of 20 rd boxes. Convenient to load two mags of 10 rd each (in the pathetic state of CT, that's all we're allowed). No issues with the firing or ejection. Tight grouping at 25 yards after sighting in. Haven't tried 100 yards yet. No complaints

    Review by p-chip (Posted on 7/17/2016)

    Good quality, great price

    Good quality ammo, runs great, never had an issue, run it in AR and COLT M-16 in full auto.

    Review by randall (Posted on 5/19/2016)

    Fired 3000+ Rounds, not a single issue

    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.

    Review by Christian (Posted on 4/21/2016)

    Want to rain lead and copper down upon range targets using your AR-15, or any other 5.56x45 or 223 Remington rifle? Then we wish you the best of this if you haven’t got ammo: LUCK.

    Want to make it rain the right way – with military-grade 223 Rem ammo made by Hornady? Then we’ll ship you 1,200 rounds of this: FRONTIER.

    Hornady is most famous for making technologically advanced hunting and match bullets. They go the opposite direction when they load Frontier. These range loads are outfitted with 55 grain full metal jacket projectiles. Although well made, with uniformly heavy lead cores and nonmagnetic copper-alloy jackets, such FMJs are the simplest bullets a semi-automatic rifle can fire. Their boat tails improve the bullets’ long-range performance, as they help them hold on to more velocity and energy way downrange.

    Don’t let those cases’ appearance lead you astray. Hornady Frontier ammunition is exclusively loaded with new brass. When you see discoloration, you’re only seeing where the brass was annealed (a heat treatment process which makes brass suppler, and cases more effective at sealing the chamber on ignition). This ammo’s visible annealing scars have zero impact on its performance or reloadability.

    Some of our customers will use this ammunition for complicated training exercises. Many more will fire it for the sake of pure fun. But do you know what those operators and plinkers share in common? They all love their Federal Black Packs!

    Here’s your chance to top up on a case of four individual Black Packs: 150 rounds apiece, with no extra packaging to slow a shooter down. Each cartridge is topped off with a 55 grain full metal jacket projectile, which (A) is nonmagnetic, (B) attains 3,240 fps muzzle velocity in conjunction with a 24” barrel, and (C) delivers the flat trajectory and consistent accuracy that are appreciated regardless of which type of target shooting you’re into.

    What does Federal Premium load in the snowy state of Minnesota? Reloadable virgin brass cases! Sensitive and completely noncorrosive Boxer primers! Fast-and-clean-burning propellant! And what does their Black Pack ammunition contain? Precisely those things.

    PMC. Magtech. Prvi Partizan. Sellier & Bellot. Shooters often turn these manufacturers for target-grade 223 Rem ammo. This is smart, because they make good ammo.

    But what if you’d rather buy American? Perhaps something with FMJs made in Nebraska, and loaded at the U.S. government’s largest ammo factory? Well, in that case you’d better order yourself four 200-round field boxes of Hornady Frontier.

    This is essentially “223 Rem M193,” as it is loaded with 55 grain bullets and powder that accelerates them to 3,240 fps out of a 24” test barrel. Center up 1.5” and aim to 200 yards, and trajectory will peak at around 1.5”. Very standard performance, and very familiar to anyone who knows what AR-15s do.

    These mighty rangers are loaded with nonmagnetic bullets and noncorrosive primers, as well as unpolished yet very evidently correctly annealed reloadable brass cases. If you decide to leave the empty field boxes out in the woods, then at least have the courtesy to leave some dollhouse furniture behind so forest gnomes can move in.

    “Made in America.” It’s an investment in homegrown quality. A patent that you care about your brother and sister Americans. A promise that we’ll hand our proud legacy of manufacturing down to our children. And it’s just one of many good things about Hornady Frontier 223 Remington ammo.

    This cartridge is loaded with Hornady’s own full metal jacket. It’s steel-free. It weighs 55 grains. It fragments upon high-velocity collision with soft tissue, but does not expand. Upon departing a 24” barrel at its advertised muzzle velocity of 3,240 fps, it conserves over 1,000 ft lbs of kinetic energy until around 93 yards (G1 BC 0.243). In short, it’s everything a 223 Rem 55 grain FMJ should be.

    This cartridge was loaded by the Lake City Army Ammunition plant. All its other components are accordingly military grade, including its noncorrosive primers and annealed-yet-unpolished cases. All 200 rounds come lovingly nestled inside a reusable field box. Yours with fast shipping!

    M193. It’s the U.S. Armed Forces’ basic 5.56x45 cartridge for range training and combat, which they adopted for the M16 rifle in 1964. The vast majority of this American-made ammo won’t go inside M16s, though. It’s destined for good Americans’ AR-15 pistols, carbines and rifles.

    The 55 grain full metal jacket is the most bare-bones bullet you can send through an AR. It’s a lead core with a sleek spitzer profile copper-zinc alloy jacket, and a cannelure around its midsection that keeps it planted right where it belongs in the case mouth. The FMJ is a capable varmint bullet, a poor choice for deer/hog hunting, and practical for defense when no better (i.e. law enforcement grade) alternative is immediately available. Target shooting is the 55gr FMJ’s true forte.

    American Quality Ammunition. That’s the name of the outfit that loaded this ammunition – in Montana, specifically, with nonmagnetic (i.e. no steel core or jacket) bullets, noncorrosive Boxer primers, and new brass cases (not remanufactured). Those shells are reloadable so long as you’ve got the right bullets!

    American Quality Ammunition’s commitment to saving you money extends to selling you less packaging. This is bulk ammo: 500 rounds in a plastic bag inside a single cardboard box.

    When they make their Frontier line of ammunition, Hornady utilizes state of the art loading techniques and the most exacting quality assurance protocol that they’ve got at their disposal. This isn’t just any Frontier ammo, though -- it is manufactured at the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, and is thus totally mil spec from its high quality brass casing to its clean igniting and responsive Boxer primer. Lake City is able to produce ammo at staggering capacities without compromising quality, so this round is both cost-effective and just the kind of thing you need to make groupings that are tighter than bark on a tree.

    This M193 round’s 55 grain projectile is Hornady’s contribution. As such it features all the reputable manufacturer’s trademarks: an intensely uniform lead alloy core, a hard and concentric jacket that penetrates easily and enables straight flight, and the consistent weight needed for consistent performance. With 1,000 of these rounds packed in a single box, it’d take one heck of a range session to run out of ammo.

    Just what I needed.

    Great price for 1000 rounds of M193. Ran 40 rounds today with my new AR-15. Worked flawlessly. Thanks.

    Review by Donald (Posted on 1/30/2020)

    Sorta happy

    So, the price of the ammo was great, delivered ahead of time by a day but, about 1 in every 75 rounds didn’t fire. Firing pin indented the round without the round firing. Thought maybe it could be a gun issue but, both of my AR’s had the same effect. When they do fire they are very accurate but, you will need to do some serious cleaning when your done. Even my nickel plated bolts were filthy after only 90 rounds. So far I have had 6 rounds that didn’t fire and I am only about halfway through the box. Not sure if I will buy the same ones in the future.

    The X-TAC line from PMC more closely follows the same specifications used for manufacturing military grade ammunition. 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.

    Customer Reviews

    Great range ammo. Always reliable and easy to use.

    This PMC-X-TAC ammo is great ammo for the range and maybe beyond the range. It is of good quality and very consistent and reliable. I have been using it for some time now, and I have never had one misfire or misfeed. I highly recommend this brand. Another plus is buying from Wideners. Great, prompt, and reasonably priced shipping.

    WHERE IS ALL THE 5.56 NATO TARGET AMMO? If that question is playing on repeat inside your brain 24/7, then we’ve got just the thing to help settle you down. Check out this 50-box case of freshly manufactured 5.56, supplied by none other than Global Ordnance of Florida!

    Most 5.56 shooters prefer M193 spec 5.56 for casual target practice and serious training. That’s primarily because it’s loaded with bullets that don’t break or otherwise damage the bank: trusty old 55 grain full metal jackets, which take sail at a muzzle velocity of around 3,162 fps.

    We have ascertained that this ammo’s bullets don’t attract a magnet. Conclusion: they don’t contain steel. Very nice.

    Anyone can plainly see that this ammo is loaded with previously untouched brass cases. If you notice discoloration around their mouths, then you are only noticing the cosmetic byproduct of the annealing process they underwent at the factory. This reloadable ammo’s Boxer primers are confirmed noncorrosive as well.

    This case of 1,000 rounds in .223 Remington comes packaged in five convenient "battle packs" of 200 rounds each. These packs are individually sealed in plastic for easy transportation and long-term storage. An excellent choice for fans of the AR-15 and other .223/5.56 NATO rifles!

    Each cartridge in this case fires a 55 grain full metal jacket bullet. Expect performance similar to M193 ball ammunition and good medium-range accuracy with minimal felt recoil.

    PMC ammo is loaded in South Korea by Poongsan, a large munitions manufacturer best known in that country for supplying the Republic of Korea Armed Forces.

    Are you still hunting varmints and predators with a rock, and want to upgrade to a 223 Rem (or 5.56x45mm) rifle? Or are you looking for 223 hunting ammo that offers fairly similar recoil and ballistic performance to M193 ball? Either way, you can stack all your chips on Armscor’s American-made ammo!

    This round’s 55 grain bullet isn’t the M193’s full metal jacket, though. It’s a pointed soft point, which combines a ballistically efficient nose profile and unjacketed tip to deliver a flat trajectory that ends in lethal terminal expansion. No coyote on either side of the Mississippi is walking off a direct hit with one of these (nonmagnetic and unbonded) PSP projectiles!

    We sell Armscor’s unprimed component brass quite often here at Widener’s. This ammo is loaded with the exact same shells, so you can rest assured you’ll still have good reloadables after taking it for a walk at the range or in the field. You get 50 individual boxes when you spring for the whole case!

    Order this case of 5.56x45 ammunition if you’d like something safe to sit on for the next few decades. 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.

    You didn’t put together the world’s sweetest AR-15 rifle just because you want to show it off to your buddies. No – you actually want to fire the thing as well, which is why you need no less than one full case of Winchester’s famous white label ammo. These range loads are made in Illinois and ready to deliver the consistent performance you need for any kind of recreational target shooting. Good to have in store for an ugly situation as well!

    This cartridge is equipped with a 55 grain bullet. At that weight it’s able to leave an rifle barrel at a velocity of 3,240 fps, just like the U.S. Armed Forces’ equivalent M193 round. The aerodynamic bullet achieves a 0.274 ballistic coefficient, so it won’t even have to rise by 6” when you’re aiming for the 300-yard target line!

    Although this round’s bullet is capable of fragmenting apart into shrapnel as it pierces soft tissue, the non-expanding FMJ is typically favored for plinking and training. This is a steel-free bullet, so you’re A-OK to take it to ranges which prohibit magnetic ammo. The bullet’s resilient jacket resists deformation and jamming during feeding, and its full cannelure wards off setback in the magazine.

    USA label ammo has new and durable brass cases. You’ll notice they’re gray around their shoulders, but that’s just the natural result of fortifying heat-treatment. These rounds’ non-corrosive Boxer primers make them repeatedly reloadable!

    Typewriters need ink. Semi-trucks need diesel. And high-volume target shooters need Winchester USA 223 Rem ammo by the case. These nonmagnetic, non-corrosive and brass-cased beauts are all your 5.56 or 223 rifle requires in order to start singing your favorite tune.

    If this was a 5.56 round, then it would conform to the military's M193 specs to a T. Its 55 grain FMJ is loaded to a muzzle velocity of 3,240 fps, so it’s going to deliver recoil and ballistic performance that are really familiar to any AR-15 aficionado. Winchester’s FMJ has a cannelure to prevent setback in the magazine, as well as the uniformly distributed lead core and concentric copper alloy jacket that good accuracy both hinge upon.

    A lot of people take a look at this ammo’s cases and wonder if it has been previously fired and reloaded. Not so! Winchester just saved time by not polishing the brass after fortifying it via heat treatment. A supple case promotes cleaner performance by expanding to seal off the chamber during ignition, and it reliably returns to its original dimensions so it can serve well at the reloading bench.

    There’s no time to waste, man! If there is any amount or kind of AR-15 target shooting in your immediate future, then you need to claim your Hornady Frontier 5.56x45 ammo today. Not tomorrow. Not yesterday. Not several billion years from now after the sun has exploded in a hellfire of nuclear plasma that evaporates the entire solar system. You know … like … now!

    Hornady sticks their Fronter label on unsophisticated yet exquisitely well-made ammunition. The Nebraskan country creates “consistency in every cartridge” by loading each with a thoroughly standardized 55 grain full metal jacket (lead core; copper-alloy jacket; nonmagnetic), which is intensely uniform both in weight and shape. Clockwork recoil and trajectory? Provided in full by Hornady’s military-grade primers and propellant. Ongoing value? Doubly delivered by this ammo’s reloadable brass cases and sturdy plastic field boxes!

    ★ Muzzle velocity - 3,240 fps (20” test barrel)
    ★ G1 ballistic coefficient - 0.243 (normal for M193 spec 5.56, which this ammo is)

    We’d all love to go target shooting with top-shelf match-grade ammunition every day. Sadly, we’re all locked into the same reality where fancy things cost $$$.

    But what if you could get away with only spending $$ – or possibly even just $ – and still have yourself a grand old time at the gun range? You can! And it’s easy. Just let us deliver some Federal Black Packs to your stoop.

    This is essentially the 223 Rem version of 5.56 M193. Fifty-five grain projectile? Check. Full metal jacket? Check. Muzzle velocity of 3,240 fps (with reasonable give and take) out of a 24” barrel? Check. Truly a great combination for all-day range fun!

    This noncorrosive ammo’s nonmagnetic FMJs will wallop varmints without fail, and they’ll tear themselves to pieces if they strike a threat at high velocity. Even so, we’d recommend a bullet that’s more fine tuned for defense if you’re defending the castle.

    And its cases? New! Brass! Reloadable!

    Plenty of folks love 5.56x45 M855 ammunition for everyday target shooting and plinking. So long as your range permits ammo that attracts a magnet, Winchester’s American-made M855 loads are poised to treat you famously. But if you’d like range ammo that can also tackle threats which are armored or shielded by light barriers, then M855 will fit the ticket!

    This cartridge’s 62 grain bullet is a regular FMJ on the outside. Its core is made of two components: a lead rear, and a hard steel front. Its rigid meplat enables the M855 bullet to pierce a steel plate much more effectively than a standard lead core M193 bullet could have, and it also promotes deeper penetration of soft tissue.

    This round’s bullet weighs a little more than average. The best AR-15 barrel twist for a 62 grain projectile is 1:9 or 1:8. A 1:7 twist is good for all but long-distance shooting, but a 1:12 twist is going to give you problems.

    Winchester loads these rounds’ magnetic projectiles in new brass. The cases are a little dark around their shoulders – this doesn’t mean they have been previously fired, but rather that they have been annealed for greater durability. Once these rounds’ non-corrosive Boxers are all spent up, go right on ahead and reload them!

    Get your fill of M855 style ammo with this 1000 round bulk pack of PMC's X-TAC NATO 5.56mm. Just like milspec M855, these rounds use 62 grain bullets with light-amor penetrating* steel tips which are painted green for easy identification. 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.

    This is the best M855 ammo I've ever bought. It's not second class or third class M855 like what Lake City is that the public can purchase. PMC sale first rate M855 to the public at a fair price and it's very clean brass.

    We always throw our heads back and laugh whenever we see 20- and 50-round boxes of 5.56x45 range ammunition. Who are such little boxes for? Ants?

    We are still happy to sell them, of course. But we are even happier to sell 100-round boxes, which you’ll get ten of when you order this freshly-minted flat of Winchester USA 5.56.

    This is M193 ammunition: one letter, three numbers, and the only thing you need for recreational riflery be it training, competition, target practice or plinking. Its bullet’s 55 grain weight and 3,180 fps muzzle velocity are what any 5.56/223 rifle ought to like (with the possible exception of those having 1:6” twist barrels). The bullet is a humble yet capable full metal jacket: no attraction to a magnet, no ability to mushroom/expand, with a cannelure to prevent recoil-induced setback.

    Look at this ammo’s beautiful new brass shell casings. They’re a whole world of opportunity to any handloader. They are also most assuredly new. Any discoloration you see is the natural and cosmetic-only byproduct of brass-strengthening heat treatment.

    Are you looking for a military grade solution for all of your target shooting, plinking, and training needs? Then this rugged 5.56x45 cartridge from Hornady’s Frontier line of ammunition is ready for action. It is loaded at the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, and accordingly all of its components are thoroughly up to snuff. You can make great use of this round’s rugged brass casing at your reloading bench, provided you’ve the means to deal with a military primer crimp. That’s hardly a problem if you know how to go about it.

    This cartridge sports a 55 grain projectile. The gilded metal jacket wrapped around its lead alloy core hardens it substantially, allowing it to prevent lead fouling and penetrate most common targets on impact. The bullet’s concentric jacket and extremely fast muzzle velocity give it a nice, flat trajectory, the sort you could depend on to hit varmint-sized targets if you so wished.

    Marksmanship is a depreciable skill. You’re either making yours better through regular target practice, or you’re letting it get worse by slacking off.

    We’d never accuse you of being a slacker, of course. Look how diligently you’re reading the product descriptions on Widener's – the mark of a real go-getter. We like your style! That’s why we’ll feel proud when we ship you 600 rounds of Winchester’s high-quality 223 Rem range ammunition.

    This is just about the most vanilla 223 you could invest your hard-earned money in. It’s loaded with standard 55 grain full metal jacket projectiles: nonmagnetic, non-expanding, and perched above the clean-burning propellant charges they need to clear muzzle at a rate of 3,240 fps (20” bbl). We estimate this round’s FMJ’s G1 ballistic coefficient at 0.274, which stands for a 250-yard trajectory that climaxes around 3.5” above the bore line.

    Winchester’s USA series ammo is loaded with primo reloadable cases. If you’re not accustomed to seeing military grade brass, then you may wonder if this ammo’s cases are discolored because they were previously reloaded. They were not. They just weren’t polished up for better cosmetics after they were heat-treated for added suppleness.

    This non-corrosive, brass-cased ammo comes packaged in a sturdy reusable steel can. It is made in South Korea by a large defense contractor that also supplies the South Korean armed forces.

    This high grade .223 Remington ammunition from Hornady is an excellent choice for discerning shooters who want better performance than what typical range fodder can provide, but don't want to spend large amounts on match-grade ammo.

    Each round in this case of 500 (split into 10 boxes of 50 rounds each) fires a 55 grain boat-tailed full metal jacket bullet at a muzzle velocity of 3,240 feet per second. This produces ballistics similar to M193 ball ammo.

    Hornady ammo is loaded in Grand Island, Nebraska and uses non-corrosive Boxer primers and reloadable brass cases.

    PMC brand ammunition is manufactured by South Korean defense contractor Poongsan, one of the largest suppliers to the Republic of Korea Armed Forces. It uses non-corrosive Boxer primers and reloadable brass cases.

    Winchester’s USA label doesn’t just stand for American-made. 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.

    One hundred rounds of 5.56x45 ammunition? That’s five 20-round magazines, all taken care of. And if you order three of them, that’s … hold on, gotta do the math … that’s ten 30-round magazines!

    And this ammo isn’t just appealingly packaged. It’s Winchester’s tried and widely beloved USA series ammo – the white box stuff – which your AR-15 ought to gobble up like it’s a Labrador retriever that got into the Kibbles 'n Bits.

    “M193” sounds a bit fancy, but it actually means the opposite. This is the most ordinary kind of 5.56 you could choose for target shooting, hands down! The bullet lacks a boat tail, polymer tip, bonded jacket, penetrator core, or any other feature that tends to cost more money. It also has a proper copper-alloy jacket – not a bimetal one – so you can fire it at gun ranges that are more selective of which ammunition their patrons bring inside.

    See those mottled, discolored brass cases? They are new. They are previously unfired. They are reloadable. They only appear to have been through the wringer because they were heat-treated for greater fortitude in the chamber, but not subsequently polished to a glossy finish.

    Has your AR-15’s barrel been cold for way, way too long? We hate to hear it! That’s why we’ve got just the thing in store to warm it up: 800 rounds of Winchester’s American-made 5.56x45, packaged in four easy to transport boxes. If you bring all this goodness to the range, then you’d might as well pack a lunch while you’re at it!

    This ammo’s all about target practice. Its 55 grain bullet and clean-burning powder grant it a muzzle velocity of 3,270 fps – extremely normal for the 5.56x45, and exactly the kind of performance semi-automatic rifles are designed to operate around. You can fall back on ammo like this for home defense should the need ever arise, and you don’t have to worry about its steel-free bullets if you patronize a range with a magnetic ammo ban in effect.

    Winchester equips their standard target loads with non-corrosive Boxer primers and freshly drawn and cut brass cases. This is not factory remanufactured ammunition, nor is it military surplus. Any discoloration on its cases is the purely cosmetic result of annealing, a heat-treatment process which yields stronger, more reliable brass.

    Why are we called “Widener’s?” Because we are going to help you widen your horizons by introducing you to the best darn Bosnian-made 5.56x45 M855 (magnetic) ammunition you’ll probably ever fire!

    Woah! “M855?” Is that, like, the name of a robot in Star Wars or something? Good guess! But it actually designates 5.56 ammunition that is designed to penetrate light barriers more effectively than traditional lead-core M193.

    This round’s 62 grain full metal jacket would look unremarkable if not for its green paint. It’s a colorful indicator that its core is made of two different metals: lead-antimony alloy in the back, and solid steel in the front. The M855 bullet’s rugged pointed steel penetrator tip is the reason why you can’t fire this ammo at certain gun ranges. It’s also why you don’t want to use it to shoot steel targets (unless your intention is to permanently damage said targets).

    This ammo is loaded with fresh-cut reloadable brass cases and noncorrosive Boxer primers. It’s not military surplus. That beautiful OD green M2A1 ammo can the 1,000 rounds are packaged in? It’s never been mistreated by soldiers!

    These .223 Remington rounds from Federal utilize many of the features that go into premium 5.56x45mm milspec rounds but without the increased cost. 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.

    Forget about 5.56x45 M193 ammunition, with its weak solid lead core FMJ bullets. 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.

    Did some TV show for nerds convince you that space is “the final frontier?” Nope! Not true. There’s actually lots of Frontier to be found – Hornady Frontier 5.56x45 ammunition, that is. If you want proof, then we’ll send you some from our warehouse with shipping so fast that the government will suspect us of using technology salvaged from Roswell, New Mexico.

    What does “UFO” stand for? Simple: U Firing Optimal 5.56x45mm target ammunition at the gun range. Hornady has loaded real M193 specification ammunition, right here, complete with 55 grain full metal jacket projectiles (that can’t attract a magnet) and enough powder to reach 3,240 fps muzzle velocity upon clearing 20 inches of barrel. That’s the only thing countless Americans want when they’re roughing up range targets with their AR-15s, and we’re willing to bet you’re one of them.

    New brass cases. Reloadable.
    Military-grade Boxer primers. Noncorrosive.
    And a field box, too? Wow! That’s great if you want to store this ammo for any amount of time, or bring it someplace where it could be exposed to the elements, or you just can’t get enough containers in your life. Truly extraterrestrial value!

    This case of ammo contains exactly 600 bangs for your AR-15 rifle. Use those bangs to make yourself a better marksman at the range, or just to play around with your latest build in your backyard (assuming you live in the kind of place that tolerates backyard rifle use).

    Winchester’s USA series 5.56x45 ammo is rudimentary – but that doesn’t mean it’s low-quality. Each cartridge in this case is loaded with a consistent 55 grain full metal jacket projectile, and achieves the 3,180 fps muzzle velocity a rifle needs to cycle reliably and spit out flat, accurate trajectories.

    The FMJ will not expand inside of soft tissue, although its tendency to fragment following high-velocity impact would spell a difficult time for any threat you were forced to neutralize with this range ammo. This is nonmagnetic ammo: Those jackets are made of copper alloy, and their cores are solid lead.

    Winchester’s new production ammo is loaded with non-corrosive Boxer-primed brass cases. These are not reloaded. They are discolored around their mouths, but that’s only because Winchester does not make their military grade cases pretty by polishing them.

    Don’t spend hours debating which 5.56x45 ammo is perfect for your big upcoming range day. Choose what countless other shooters already consider to be their tried-and-true go-to. You can never go wrong with Federal Premium American Eagle!

    This is essentially M193 ammunition – i.e. the number one choice for target shooting, thanks in large part to its economical 55 grain full metal jacket bullet. That FMJ’s features? A solid lead core. A nonmagnetic copper-alloy jacket. A cannelure to prevent recoil from shifting the it around in the case mouth. A 0.246 G1 ballistic coefficient that prevents it from undergoing transonic destabilization until nearly 700 yards!

    You can plainly see that this ammo’s new, reloadable brass cases were made right. They still bear a little discoloration around their necks – indication they were annealed at the factory. Like all of Federal’s high-quality American-made ammunition, these rounds’ primers and powder charges are carefully paired to promote unerring cycling, undeviating recoil, and consistent accuracy.

    You won’t catch us complaining about getting 150 rounds of 223 Rem to a single box. That’s enough so we can spend hours meticulously lining up sniper shots, and it’s also spot on for exactly five 30-round mag dumps. Winchester USA 223 really is good for both occasions.

    This is basic ammo as far as your AR-15 is concerned, and the foundation of any respectable arsenal. Each round wears a 55 grain bullet that rips out of the barrel at 3,240 fps. That’ll treat you to the flat trajectory the AR-15 is beloved for. The bullet has a full metal jacket, which keeps the lead in its core from touching the barrel and hardens the bullet to prevent deformation during ignition.

    We don’t recommend the FMJ, which does not expand, for hunting. And as far as self-defense is concerned, there are better bullets for neutralizing a human-sized threat. But when such bullets are not available, you’ll find an eighth ounce of solid metal striking a target at nearly three times the speed of sound makes quite an impact whichever way you slice it.

    A lot of folks look at this ammo’s brass cases and assume they’ve already been fired. But that isn’t the the situation! These military-grade cases are discolored because they’ve been annealed, which makes them more supple for better functionality. This reloadable ammo is also non-corrosive and nonmagnetic, so it offers great value, clean performance, and versatility when it comes to which indoor ranges you can train at.

    Winchester’s USA line of ammunition is your trusty go-to at the range. Never too expensive and always reliable, USA ammo is poised to let you enjoy your rifle just as it’s meant to operate.

    This 5.56x45 cartridge sports a 55 grain projectile, a popular all-around bullet weight that AR-15s love to shoot. The bullet has a full metal jacket and will not expand during penetration, making this round less than ideal for self-defense applications -- which is not to say any living thing would enjoy being shot with one. The bullet’s copper jacket produces markedly less fouling in the bore than lead would, and because it’s hard this bullet is able to penetrate a variety of target types.

    Winchester’s propellant and primer both burn clean, so you’ll not have to scrub down your rifle during your upcoming visit to the range. The old American manufacturer’s standardized brass casings boast uniform dimensions to one another, promoting smooth feeding, and their durability lends itself marvelously to handloading.

    Frontiersmen didn’t have the luxury of hauling along a variety of ammunition to best suit them whether they were hunting, defending themselves, practicing their aim, or just shooting old bottles. In that spirit Hornady offers their Frontier line, a versatile line of ammunition that you can count on to perform to matter how you would choose to utilize it.

    This 5.56x45mm cartridge was created according to US Military specifications at the hallowed Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, which has been in near continuous operation since it first opened in 1941. It features a select and reloadable brass casing as well as a military grade propellant and Boxer primer. This round’s 55 grain Match projectile is highly accurate, and that it’s a hollow point means it sports the terminal performance you can bank on to drop varmints or other small game. Invest in these 500 rounds and enjoy seamlessly transitioning from one type of shooting to another.

    Frontier ammunition is loaded for Hornady by the U.S. government’s own Lake City Army Ammunition Plant in Independence, Missouri. It’s high quality stuff – especially when Hornady arms it with their superior HP Match projectiles!

    This round’s 55 grain hollow point is not designed to expand as it penetrates soft tissue. The narrow opening in its nose indicates that the bullet’s swaged lead core is perfectly form-fitted to its jacket, where it was poured into place. The HP Match’s evenly distributed core is complemented by Hornady’s signature AMP jacket, which is a virtually perfectly concentric copper shell.

    This balanced bullet is also extremely aerodynamic. Its graceful secant ogive geometry gives way to a ballistically efficient boat tail. When the bullet is fired through a 24” barrel to achieve a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.254, its velocity remains at least Mach 2 until it reaches the 275-yard line!

    This ammo’s uniform brass cases ensure smooth cycling through any bolt-action or semi-auto, and its matched primers and propellant serve up consistent recoil and ballistics. One 500 round case is divided among 25 boxes, so you can pass some along to your range pals (but you won’t want to).

    When a 5.56x45 cartridge’s bullet is able to attract a magnet, that usually means it’s a cheapie from Russia. But that’s not the case with Winchester’s American-made 5.56x45 M855 ammo. This round’s bullet features a partial steel core, which enables it to reliably pass through sheet metal at ranges within 650 yards!

    This round’s bullet weighs in at 62 grains, which is heavier than average for a 5.56 load. The bullet’s superior momentum confers a flatter trajectory, which is also better protected against the straying effects of crosswinds. An AR-15 or other rifle with a 1:9 or 1:8 rate of twist is ideal for a 62 grain load like this, but a faster twist won’t keep you from hitting your targets by any means.

    This military-grade ammo is loaded with low-residue powder and non-corrosive Boxer primers, as well as newly produced brass cases. The reloadable brass cases weren’t polished before they were shipping out, which is why you can plainly see where they were heat-treated.

The 55-grain bullet is excellent for medium to long-range shooting, as it has a muzzle velocity of 3,241 feet per second, helping it maintain a straight, consistent trajectory. The cases use WOLF’s Polyformance coating, which enhances smooth feeding into the chamber. This product is a single box containing 20 rounds of .223 Remington.

    WOLF is one of the top brands for high-volume ammunition. They specialize in creating affordable ammo that doesn’t sacrifice quality and performance. If you own an autoloading rifle or handgun, WOLF has the ammo choices you need for a full day at the range.

    The .223 Remington delivers outstanding velocities and accuracy. While other rounds can claim more energy and stopping power, few can travel as fast as the .223 Remington. Because of its excellent speed and precision, it has become a favorite among varmint and predator hunters and is used extensively for target shooting and competitions.

    Wolf Ammo has recently told customers to not use their 223 Rem ammo in any Smith & Wesson M&P 15 rifles. We highly recommend you follow their warning until you hear otherwise.

    If you’ve got an AR-15, then you know how quickly the little thing can gobble up ammo. Keeping it in good supply of the stuff can be a challenge -- it’s not uncommon for an AR-15 owner to feel like a mother bird that has to perpetually stick worms down its fledgling’s gullet. When you need high quality rounds, you can always bank on Hornady. The old Nebraskan master has one of the tightest quality assurance protocols that we know about, and that really shows in their products’ consistently great performance.

    This 223 Rem cartridge has a 55 grain projectile. The bullet’s jacket is drawn extremely concentrically, which along with its fast 3,240 fps muzzle velocity assures a flat and accurate trajectory. This bullet’s jacket further serves to promote certain feeding through a semi-automatic, and to prevent rapid fouling within the bore as well. This round’s military grade primer and propellant both burn clean to preserve a rifle’s action, and its brand new brass casing is ready for multiple trips across the reloading bench.

    Do you frequent a rifle range that forbids magnetic ammunition on its premises, but still want to fire 5.56x45 M855 ammunition? 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!

    Soft point cartridges are an economical yet highly effective choice for bringing down various types of game. This .223 Remington ammo from PMC is no exception, excelling in the field against coyote, hogs, and other animals due to its excellent expansion potential.

    Each round in this bulk-priced case of 800 fires a 55 grain projectile. If your optics are sighted in with M193 ball or another comparable range load, you'll be able to use this load to hunt with little to no adjustment!

    PMC ammo is made in South Korea using non-corrosive Boxer primers and brass cases.
