History of 223 Ammo

Developed in the 1960s, the .223 cartridge offers shooters high muzzle velocity and minimal recoil at an affordable price. It's a favorite for new and experienced shooters because it's accurate, inexpensive, and has low recoil.

223 is often used for target shooting, home defense, and, in some, primarily varmint and deer hunting applications.

    I’m a new buyer to this website and the customer service is extraordinary. This is the cheapest you can find gold dots and they were on my doorstep 2 days later which is why I’m returning now. You can’t go wrong with gold dots. Excellent ammo and very accurate.

    I hand load 55g blitzing for my AR and these performed exactly like my hand loads no adjustment in windage or elevation was needed. Although I didn't have time to run them through the chronograph with the performance at 100 yards I'd say the advertised velocity is spot on with a 24 inch barrel.

    I've been using Tula in my XDM .45 for plinking and have had no issues so I thought I'd give these a try, but the Tula .223 Rem 55gr malfunctions VERY often in my modern sporting rifle. Every 2-4 rounds caused a failure to eject/cycle, or double feed. I've had NO issues with brass in the same rifle. Not worth the pennies saved, I won't be buying Tula .223 again or even finishing the rounds I bought.
