Hornady - Full Metal Jacket - 62 Grain 5.56x45mm Ammo - 20 Rounds

Since its introduction, 5.56 NATO ammo has become the dominant medium rifle caliber for the western world: matched against the Soviet 7.62x39, the NATO round is known to have better accuracy, but it somewhat limited in its knock down capabilities in standard FMJ rounds. None the less, a wide variety of bullet types are available for the diversity of barrel lengths and rifling twists to fulfill their intended role. Hornady hedges them all with their new Black line of cartridges: whether gas impingement, piston driven or manual actions, their 62 grain full metal jacket round delivers dependable performance from all types of firearms, including SBRs and pistols. With a standard muzzle velocity of 2700 feet per second with 2719 foot pounds of energy, it is an ideal round for use in range training and match shooting.

Hornady ammunition is the base line of all sporting and defensive ammunition and is often used as the baseline to measure the performance capabilities of new firearms. As all components of the Hornady cartridge - primer, powder case and bullet – are top choices for reloaders, completed cartridges by the company simply offer all that is best in ready to shoot format.
