500rds – 223 Rem Federal American Eagle Military Grade 55gr. FMJBT Ammo
Federal Ammunition 55 Grain Full Metal Jacket Boat Tail (FMJ-BT) Ammo Details
A perfect range round, this 223 Rem cartridge hails from the hallowed Lake City Army Ammunition Plant in Independence, Missouri. The tremendous facility cranks out well over one billion rounds annually, a lot of which go to work making better shooters at our military’s training camps. Federal has this particular round made at the plant to make a better shooter out of you!This round features a classic 55 grain projectile. It’s not designed to deliver terminal expansion – but with its nearly Mach 3 muzzle velocity it pretty much doesn’t have to. This bullet’s fast muzzle velocity, uniformly distributed lead core, concentric copper jacket, and perfectly tapered base all contribute to its high ballistic coefficient of 0.269. Such a bullet only has to rise about 1.5 inches when you’re zeroed in at 200 yards, and doesn’t become subsonic until around the 775 yard mark!
This round’s military grade brass shell casing demands to be reloaded several times, and its primer offers all the sensitivity one should expect of a joint effort between Federal and Lake City. This round’s propellant and primer both light up nice and clean to keep your rifle rust-free and fully operational.
