Tula Cartridge Works Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) 62 Grain 223 Remington Ammo - 40 Rounds

Since its introduction as a varmint turned military round, the .223 Remington has become, and remains, a focal point for customization and purpose specific “tweaking.” This is encouraged by the cartridge’s relatively low cost of materials to impressive performance ratio. The most common weight of the bullet is 55 grains: coupled with a slow twist (1:9) barrel giving the lighter bullet sufficient stability for dependable accuracy out to beyond 600 yards. In faster twist barrels (1:8, 1:7) a heavier bullet is able to go out a little further and hit a little harder.

Tula’s 62 grain full metal jacketed bullet has a muzzle speed of 3025 feet per second hitting with an average of 1300 foot pounds. This is designed for range training and firearms handling of the faster twist barrels seen in HBAR or custom build AR rifle systems. This ammo is loaded into 40 round boxes and with the bulk case, you’ll get 25 boxes for 1,000 rounds in all.
