Rifle Ammos Descriptions

223 Rem - 62 Grain FMJ - Hornady BLACK - 200 Rounds

Hornady’s BLACK ammunition is not particular about which type of rifle you’re firing. This 223 Rem ammo will work splendidly in your AR-15 whether it is direct impingement or gas piston. This American-made 223 will work just as well in your bolt-action rifle. It’s a truly versatile selection for target shooting. Experienced enthusiasts might see this round’s 62 grain bullet and wonder whether it’s an M855. It is not – just a simple FMJ without a molecule of steel in its core or its jacket. As such this ammo delivers practically identical ballistic performance to that of the M855, but you can also enjoy firing it at any range you please. The 223’s 62 grain FMJ has a slower muzzle velocity than a 55 grain bullet, but it compensates with faster velocities once it has passed the 300-yard mark. Its higher ballistic coefficient also gives the 62 grain FMJ better resistance to wind drift, although you’ll want a barrel with a 1:9 or 1:8 twist to witness its fullest potential long-distance accuracy. Horandy’s nonmagnetic bullet is seated in a high-quality brass case – smooth-cycling and also reloadable, once its non-corrosive Boxer primer has received its indentation.

45 ACP - 230 Grain FNEB - Remington Subsonic - 50 Rounds

Do you have a 45 ACP handgun? Do you also have a suppressor? Then all you need now is the ammo. Remington and Advanced Armament Corporation codeveloped this ammo so you can maximize your suppressed handgun’s performance. The 45 ACP is already a subsonic cartridge, and Remington’s Subsonic label ammo certainly doesn’t reinvent the wheel in that department. What this cartridge offers that’s special is its bullet: a flat nose enclosed base. No part of the bullet’s core is exposed to hot propellant gasses during ignition, so you can look forward to not having to scrub any lead residue off of your suppressor’s ports or baffles. This bullet’s flat nose profile won’t deliver terminal expansion. But if your objective is to avoid deafening yourself while you use your handgun during home defense, you’ll still find 230 grains of lead and copper suitable for the job. This bullet transfers more than 320 ft lbs of energy over any distance your home could possibly contain. Even if it hasn’t got a suppressor, your handgun should have zero difficulty cycling this brass-cased, non-corrosive and clean-burning American-made ammunition.
