Overview of 223 Rem 55 Grain Ammo
55 grain 223 Remington is the workhorse weight for the cartridge - the standard FMJ load that armies, plinkers, and AR-15 shooters have leaned on for decades. The bullet that fed the M16 family (as M193 ball) lives on in civilian 55gr loads from every major manufacturer, and it remains the default choice for high-volume range work, varmint hunting at moderate distances, and stockpiling.
The 55gr projectile leaves a 20-inch barrel around 3,200 feet per second, delivering a flat trajectory inside 300 yards and enough fragmentation potential out of standard-twist barrels to be effective on coyote, prairie dog, and similar varmint-sized game. Most factory rifles chambered in 223 Rem or 5.56 NATO are zeroed for 55gr loads at the factory, which is part of why it dominates the AR-15 ammo market.
Why shooters choose 55 grain 223
- Default load: the most widely produced 223 bullet weight, available from every major manufacturer.
- Range and training: cheap per-round cost and consistent ballistic profile.
- Varmint hunting: bullet construction options (V-Max, soft point, FMJ) fit small to medium varmints.
- Standard zero: most factory AR-15s ship sighted for 55gr loads.

Scooby6 said:
Federal manufactured XM193BL is pretty much a GOLD STANDARD round and it’s quality is well known. But my review is related to AMMO.COM and I just cannot say thank you enough! Virtually unbeatable price coupled with a commitment to helping veterans and gun advocates... and I got my order in less than 72 hours. Great Job! AMMO.COM is. Ow my first stop for all Caliber needs.
-
Alex said:
Good quality
-
JC said:
I have a Colt which is can be picky on ammo. I have never had a jam with this Federal 223 ammo. ammon.net was fast and great to work with. my only complaint is the current prices everywhere right now.
-
Hooter said:
Ammo is great shooting, clean, no problems. Shipping on time and great service. The recent worldwide increase in ammo prices are ridiculous. Not a lot you can do about it, though
-
james said:
ammo shot fine, fast service great prices

Stricky323 said:

Brian said:
Great ammo for weekend shooting, good price and fast shipping
-
Sandy said:
The ammo arrived on my birthday and it was the highlight of my day. My order was filled and sent to me so fast I was pleasantly surprised. The cartridges are of the highest quality, not musty surplus like some folks are selling. Very happy, thank you.
-
Retired Sarge said:
My first time using the rifle I used this ammo. On a 10 inch dirty bird target I was able to land consistent groupings .I was able to land 59 out of 60 rounds in the 9 ring or better. The order was shipped and I received it on the third day. Service is excellent.
-
stan said:
very happy ,with the ammo, no jam ups,carb build up is minor -compare to wolf. price is affordable for the weekend shooter. Quality of the ammo is very very good for the price. also very happy with .ammo.com- getting the order out to me so i can blow up the targets.. i don t like waiting for my ammo- the last place had to wait three weeks,was not happy
-
David said:
I use this ammo for sighting in scopes and to test fire and do function checks on firearms I build and work on. Kind of dirty but not too bad. Been using this stuff for years.
-
Becca said:
Ok
-
Sike said:
For relatively cheap ammo Works fairly well only had 1 misfire out of about 200 just had a little too much lacquer on it
-
donald said:
good ammo good price fast shipping will buy more and tell my friends..i do recommend
-
Dr. O. said:
This ammo was a great value. And performed well. Not a single jam. Very consistent
-
TedG said:
Fired about 100 rounds. No misfeeds, no duds, no significant accuracy loss over green-tips at 100yrds. I did notice that the spent casings actually eject a little differently (more to the rear and in a tighter grouping). This is actually nice for me because, when I fire federals, about 1/2 of the brass flies out the window of my shooting hut while the Wolf "brass" piles up in a neat little spot next to me on the inside of the hut. The price is right - highly recommended for plinking!
-
myob said:
good ammo
-
Rick said:
Price was right, delivery was quick, Fed and ejected with no problems.
-
Jimbillyjoebob said:
You have to keep your AR clean no matter what ammo you feed it. I would not use this ammo for hunting if I had better available, but if you're going to be humming through 300+ rounds on an afternoon, it's hard to beat. Very rare misfeeds.
-
Dan the man said:
Everything is so informative and i like the layout its convenient
-
AR 15 Novice said:
I just bought a Windham AR 15 .223. Never shot an AR before this one. The Federal .223`s I bought from Ammo.com cycled and fired flawlessly. I will buy these rounds again.
-
Earl the Pearl said:
Never had a problem, fed and fired always.
-
Darryl said:
Wasn't expecting the shipment so fast, fired from my rifles without problem dead on target.
-
Medic505 said:
Shot well from a Bushmaster m-4 and even better from a Savage Mod.10 heavy barrel. Pounding a spray paint can with every shot at 300 yards. Best price I've found for factory loaded rounds. Service was great. Arrived 3 days after order.
-
Willy said:
I have a Colt AR15, SP-1, which was the closest thing I could find to the M-16 I had in Vietnam. I also have a Ruger Mini-14 with a Bushnell red-dot. Both held their groups at 100 yards with this ammo. I shoot 5 shot 3" groups with both guns at that range on a bench without any support but my forearm. I shoot the SP-1 on a sandbag at 200 yards with the same group. The Ruger fall off badly at that range; gun's fault. Your ammo is fine. I can do better on the price but your service is good.
-
Christopher said:
Loved the price. No problems at all.
-
Shaggybird said:
Good, cheap plinking ammo for your AR15 range toy… you will feel very dirty after burning thru this big ol box, almost as dirty as it will make your weapon so be prepared to clean and lube your pew pew afterwards! Practice safe shooting while at the range: no pulling out of your lane, try your best to keep your rounds center mass and fight the temptation to try head shots or facials on those silhouette targets!
-
Al said:
Very nice ammo to target practice and cheap to shoot a lot of.
-
luckey one said:
They arrived promptly. They fired very well and for the price i will buy more. I am very satisfied
-
J. T. said:
This is steel cartridge cases, steel core bullets and they have been banned from all indoor ranges I have been to as the round fouls up the range backstop. The cases are also Berdan primed and cannot be used for reloading, same garbage as TulAmmo. If you want to recycle you'll have to shoot several tons to recycle the steel. NOT RE-LOADABLE. They shoot, had some failure to feeds, I will never buy Russian made garbage again.
-
William said:
I bought 1k rounds of steel cased .223 and it arrived in less than 48 hours. I know you aren’t “supposed” to shoot steel cased out of an ar15, but after about 500 rounds I’ve experienced zero problems. It’s hard to beat 35 cents per round.
-
WOLFMAN JACK said:
Nothing wrong with this ammo, shots straight, and on target. !!!!!!
-
Marvelous said:
Next time I buy ammo I will return!
-
Rodge said:
The service was excellent. The performance of the Aguila .223 Rem FMJ ammo is superior to ammo that cost more. It is excellent quality brass and I've not had a single failure to date in over 1250 rounds fired over a three month period.
-
Zombiesrnuts said:
Ammo.com had the best price per round for the Aguila and also was pleasantly surprised on the ease and quickness of the order and delivery! I'll always shop here first!
-
JunkYard said:
Im amazed at the super fast service! I will continue my shopping at Ammo.com. Thanks.

Great performance running through my Spikes ST-15 & Springfield Saint. No jams at all. I would recommend this product for practice and range use.

Brian said:
No problems feeding, cycling or firing. Not a one. 500 rounds in and buying more. AR-15 platform.

Great ammo, great price

mclovin said:
Cycled well thru ar
-
petarro said:
I'm new to this, I bought this Russian ammo and Winchester $$ ammo. The accuracy in the same grain was exactly the same. This one is brass so you can use the range and explodes almost as safe as all brass but it's at least safer than all steel. Price is great, boxes and ammo and quality is great too. Not sure what dirtier means but after dozens of each, the gun was in the same need to get cleaned.
-
Wolvian said:
Shoots fine but is a little dirty to shoot
-
Bushwacker61 said:
I have bought lots of 1,000 of this ammo 2-3 times. The first lot(s) were good. However, I started getting tons of split case necks about every 10th round with my most recent lot. This was with a 10.5" AR pistol and good quality P-mags. I had my local gunsmith look at the gun, and he couldn't find any issues, so presumably the culprit was the ammo. Not sure if they had some QC issues this year? I haven't written off Fiocci, but I'll probably wait a while until any bad ammo cycles through the market.
-
Ezekiel said:
Ive been shooting fiocchi 223 amd 9mm for a couple years solely now, never have had a malfunction, bad primer, or defaced/damaged round. Shoots great, burns well, and such a good price for what you get.
-
EmmBee said:
Purchased 1000 and reloaded those after shooting. Ammo functioned beyond expectations and reloaded cases performed well too.
-
Drk said:
Fired around 150 rounds. No jams or misfires. Found two dented casings when loading mags. and discarded them. All and all a good value for the range.
-
JackW said:
I bought this for some cheap range ammo and I had a jam on my first mag. Got through a couple more mags and hand another couple jams. I expected it, but not as frequently as it did. Not terrible if you just need practice ammo, though. Feels good.
-
Fred said:
Plinking or hunting I get accurate shots with no misfire
-
Stinky said:
Shoots well. No problems.

Nothing like using good ammo to make you feel good about yourself. Pushed it out to 300 meters and anything off target was probably my jittery finger. Cycled well under rapid fire. I like it!

Great fun ammo for steel targets.

Matthew said:
The Ammo is great, but the one hitch in my "Giddy-up" is: The ammo on the website reads "FMJ-BT", but what showed up at my door was regular FMJ. I'll still shoot it, but I'll be wary, before I order from here.
