223 Rem - 55 Grain FMJBT - Federal American Eagle - 20 Rounds

This 223 Rem ammunition by Federal is military grade – but it is not military surplus. That means rather than sitting around in a musty warehouse for who knows how long it has been recently minted and shipped to our warehouse – where it won’t sit around for very long at all! American Eagle label ammo is one of American shooters’ favorite go-tos for target practice. As 223 Rem this ammo is ideal for AR-15 rifles, even if they are specifically designed to chamber 5.56x45. This round has a 55 grain bullet loaded to a 3,240 fps muzzle velocity. (Those are the two most common specs for a 223.) The bullet itself is none other than an FMJBT, with a simple lead core and gilding metal jacket for smooth, clean performance and a boat tail to help retain more velocity downrange. This round’s 0.269 ballistic coefficient lets it pack over 450 ft lbs of energy at 400 yards, which is still effective for personal protection even considering the FMJBT’s inability to expand. American Eagle is universally steel-free, so feel free to take this nonmagnetic ammo to any indoor range. It’s also non-corrosive, low residue, and brass cased – keep those valuable brass cases for future handloading!

45 ACP - 230 Grain TMJ - Speer LAWMAN - 50 Rounds

Speer® brought sport shooters and law enforcement the excellence of Lawman over 35 years ago. Back in 1968, the line included various calibers of centerfire handgun ammunition, and quickly earned a reputation as a high-performance and reliable product. Lawman is attractively priced, and the cases are reloadable with clean-burning propellants and reliable CCI primers to complete the package. Total metal jacket (TMJ) is different from full metal jacket (FMJ) due to TMJ bullets having no exposed lead bases, this makes TMJ bullets better suited for firing in indoor ranges since there will be fewer lead particulates floating in the air after firing .
