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.

Very tough exterior bag similar to some issue ammo during deployments. I see no issues that concern me. It saved me from doing my own storage prep.

Joel said:
This round was very consistent, very clean. I don't think you can do better for price in a brass cased round. Shooting in a Daniel Defense m4v11 they were flawless. Definitely ordering more.

I've shot PMC ammo for years on the range, for .223, .45acp & 9mm, never had a misfire or failure to feed on any of my guns. Korean ammo is the only foreign ammo I'll buy!

J A said:
I have not shot any of this ammo as of yet because it is down the line in my rotation. But I was comfortable purchasing PMC ammo as I've never had any bad ammo from the company. The price was right at the time so it was a good buy for me. I look forward to purchasing ammo from your site again, thank you...

I have a remington Model 700sps varmint 223. with a bull barrel, n added a bipod, and a Barska 4-14 x 40 scope. i picked up a fiew boxes of the pmc bronze boat tail ammo in 55 grain simply because they wer only 7.25 for a box of 20. i was realy surprised on how consistant they wer. i placed 18 outa 20 rounds in a 3 inch circle at 150 yds. with a slight breeze. over all im realy pleased with this product, and will continue to use, an recommend this ammo.
