Details

Virtually the most popular round in US law enforcement and private hands, the .223 Remington was developed at the request of the US military in the 1950’s to start searching for a round capable of at range effectiveness as the 7.62x51 NATO round but being able to be more controllable from a service rifle in full automatic. While the .223 led to the development and adoption of the 5.56 NATO in the 1960’s, it remains a popular choice among marksmen and varmint hunters for being an accurate than its loaded to higher pressures descendant and for its versatility: capable of being fired from both .223 and 5.56 NATO chambers. The 55 grain full metal jacket by Federal has a muzzle velocity of 3240 feet per second with 1282 foot pounds of energy. This is a reliable range training and target shooting round that is also perfectly suited for competitions.

Federal’s reputation for premium quality ammunition was founded in 1922 Minnesota where it was quickly recognized as a provider of premium quality hunting and personal defense ammunition, their American Eagle line of range ammo has continued in that tradition: with quality components including reloadable cases.
