U.S. munitions maker Hornady has also answered the call, delivering a quality, non-corrosive round for range training and competitive applications.

This Hornady 223 ammo is loaded with a 75 grain hollow point, boat tailed bullet. Expect it will the muzzle at 2790 feet per second with 1296 foot pounds of energy. This is ideal for slower twist barrels for long range, precision shooting.

Hornady is well known for their premium quality performance ammunition for sport and defense, but with this 50 round lot also offer professional and casual shooters alike options for staying at the range longer without mortgaging their children’s college funds.
