Federal Ammunition 55 Grain Full Metal Jacket Boat Tail (FMJ-BT) Ammo Details

Do you have a rifle chambered for 5.56x45 or 223 Rem? Do you like buying American-made as often as you’re able? Do you want us to deliver 500 rounds of reliable range ammo to you so fast that you’ll wonder if our warehouse is located next door to your home? Then check out this American Eagle ammo by Federal!

This is the most basic kind of 223 ammo you could possibly buy, but that’s not to say it’s low-quality. This round’s full metal jacket boat tail weighs 55 grains, produces a 3,240 fps muzzle velocity and has a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.269 – all specs which make its recoil, trajectory and point of aim pretty much identical to those of the military’s 5.56 M193 load. We’d rather you use ammo with soft point or polymer tipped expanding bullets for home defense, but when you’re just going bang bang bang at the range, this ammo is going to let you do your thang thang thang.

This is brass-cased and noncorrosive Boxer-primed ammo, so it’s reloadable and clean-shooting. Each primer wears a little sealant to protect the powder against water infiltration. Nice.

    To me, this is the best multiple purpose AR ammo. It is affordable and reliable. I shoot this all the time in all of my AR's and it always works great.
