Frontier 556 NATO 55 grain FM193 ammunition delivers dependable performance for training, qualification, and tactical operations. Built on Hornady's manufacturing legacy, this 5.56 NATO cartridge pairs a full metal jacket projectile with consistent powder charges and reliable primers, making it a practical choice for duty-focused shooters and high-round-count training cycles where cost-per-round matters without sacrificing reliability.
The 55-grain M193 bullet—the original NATO 5.56 standard projectile—generates a muzzle velocity of 3,240 feet per second from a 20-inch reference barrel. At this velocity, the M193 profile maintains consistent ballistics across typical service rifle barrel lengths (14.5" to 20") and performs predictably in both range and field scenarios. The full metal jacket construction ensures barrier-blind penetration and functions reliably in duty rifles and direct-impingement or piston platforms without fouling concerns. Each box contains 20 rounds, allowing flexible quantities for range sessions, barracks storage, or operational supply chains.
This ammunition suits law enforcement training programs, military qualification courses, and civilian shooters who need consistent 556 NATO or 223 Remington performance. The M193 profile is non-magnetic and complies with most indoor and outdoor range policies. Shooters running high-round-count drills, zero confirmation, and transition work will find the ballistic stability and price efficiency of Frontier 556 NATO well-suited to the workload without requiring premium match-grade ammunition for those tasks.
Frontier Cartridge bridges the gap between budget surplus ammunition and precision match loads. The 55-grain FMJ configuration is the most combat-proven projectile weight in the 5.56 family and remains the reference standard for velocity and zero development. For duty applications, qualification events, and serious training volume, Frontier 556 NATO offers transparent ballistics and dependable ignition at a transparent price point.
