Federal PowerShok 223 Remington 55-grain soft point ammunition delivers proven hunting performance at production volume pricing. This .223 Rem cartridge combines Federal's reputation for consistent brass, primers, and powder with traditional lead-core jacketed soft point bullets that perform reliably across medium game applications. The 55-grain soft point construction provides controlled expansion suitable for varmint and predator hunting where velocity and energy transfer matter.
Each round achieves 3,240 feet per second muzzle velocity, generating ballistically predictable energy for consistent performance downrange. The 223 Remington caliber remains one of the most widely adopted centerfire rifle cartridges in North America, offering shooters low recoil, affordable practice and duty use, and compatibility with AR-15 platforms and bolt-action rifles. Federal's manufacturing consistency ensures minimal velocity and pressure variation between rounds—critical for shooters who demand repeatability in training and field applications.
This ammunition suits hunters and shooters who prioritize cost-effectiveness without sacrificing terminal reliability. The 20-round box format supports high-volume range training, zeroing, and tactical rifle courses where shooters fire multiple strings without resupplying. Federal PowerShok rounds feed reliably through modern sporting rifles and traditional platforms, making this cartridge a practical choice for shooters balancing budget discipline with performance consistency across extended shooting sessions.
The .223 Remington cartridge has become the standard for AR platform rifles and small-caliber hunting applications. Federal's PowerShok line reflects decades of ammunition development, positioning this 55-grain load as a reliable middle ground between high-volume target practice and duty-grade hunting ammunition. Shooters seeking verified performance metrics and proven powder charges find value in Federal's published velocity and trajectory data, enabling informed load selection for specific shooting disciplines and game types.
