20 Rounds of 55gr SP .223 Ammo by Federal

The Federal Cartridge Company has a decades-long history of manufacturing sport and hunting ammunition firearms aficionados can rely on. And for your AR, this Federal Power-Shok .223 55 grain SP ammunition is yet another example of the attention to detail and strict standards at Federal’s Anoka, Minnesota plant. .223 is a popular and increasingly common round, and that means you must take care when deciding which brand to use in your personal rifle. When you purchase these American-made rounds, you can’t go wrong.

These are not only ideal but fantastic for small-game and varmint hunting. The Power-Shok line is known for exceptional performance, and these rounds definitely meet that expectation. They’re a moderately weighted 55 grain, which gives them a bit more heft for impact while still allowing them to be fast. They have a muzzle velocity of 3,240 feet per second, enabling you to reach out and touch your target before they know what hit them. And with a muzzle energy of 1,282 foot-pounds, these rounds make their mark. Adding in the soft point, which allows for maximum expansion and energy transfer, serves to make them perfect for your smaller hunting needs.

Back during World War II, when the Army and Navy got together and gave Federal an “E” award for excellence, the company’s ammunition was already considered top-of-the-line. Today, it’s even better. These rounds are manufactured in fresh brass, boxer-primed, non-corrosive cases, so they’re reloadable and produce less friction in your rifle. There are 20 rounds in this box, which is just enough to get you started hunting. Whether you have a predator problem on your farm or want to go out looking for small game, give these soft-tip rounds a try.
