American Eagle 223 REM 55GR FMJ Boat Tail 100 Rounds

Have you just purchased your first AR-15 and have no idea what kind of ammo to order? Get the same ammo that seasoned riflemen swear by – Federal’s American Eagle label 223 Rem, made in America and consistently loaded for satisfying, target grade accuracy while you’re blasting away at the range!

As a 223 Rem you may safely fire this round in a rifle chambered for 5.56 as well. Its bullet is the most popular type for recreational shooting, but under no circumstances should you rule it out for self-defense either. Practically identical to the Army’s M193 cartridge used in the M16, this round’s 55 grain FMJBT bullet is loaded to a muzzle velocity of 3,240 fps. The bullet’s copper jacket prevents feeding problems and excessive barrel fouling before continuing on its flat trajectory, and its boat tail reduces in-flight drag to promote faster velocities far downrange.

This round’s brand new brass case promises smooth feeding and extraction through a semi-auto, cleaner ignition than the alternative steel case, and is able to be reloaded several times. Its primer and propellant are both modern and clean burning, as well as consistent for reliable shot by shot performance.
