223 REM HORNADY AMERICAN GUNNER 55 GRAIN HP (50 ROUNDS)

About This Hornady 223 Remington Ammunition

Let us tell you something about Nebraskans. They don’t know the meanings of the words “miss” and “groups.” It doesn’t matter how many times they fire at their target. They hit it dead center every time, so all you see is a single hole smack dab in the middle of the bullseye.

Maybe we’re exaggerating a little, but the fact is Nebraska does produce some mighty accurate ammo. If you’re looking for the perfect 223 Rem for target practice, then you’ll discover everything to like about Hornady American Gunner!

This cartridge’s 55 grain bullet and 3,240 fps muzzle velocity (24” barrel) are both as normal as it’s possible to be – as far as the 223’s concerned, at least. What’s special is the bullet: Hornady’s own high-quality hollow point, which exhibits superior gyroscopic stability courtesy of its precision-drawn copper-alloy jacket and evenly balanced solid lead core. The HP’s nose cavity allowed Hornady to fill its jacket with molten lead which solidified to become a uniform core. So long as you don’t expect the HP to deliver terminal expansion, it’s sure to meet your expectations.

Hornady’s factory in Nebraska spat out the strong and uniform brass cases this ammo needs in order to function like clockwork. Once Hornady outfitted them with their sensitive primers, clean-burning powder and HP bullets, they became ready for action in any American’s AR or other 5.56/223 rifle.
