The Hornady SF 5.56 NATO 55gr CX ammunition delivers match-grade ballistic performance in a compact, economical package. This 20-round box (200 rounds total per case) is engineered for precision rifle applications where velocity consistency and accuracy matter—from tactical training courses to mid-range precision work. The 55-grain bullet weight represents the NATO standard for 5.56mm, optimized for 1:12 barrel twist rates and delivering a proven velocity envelope across modern rifle platforms.
Hornady's SF (Soft Point / Fragmenting) bullet construction provides reliable expansion characteristics while maintaining the ballistic stability required for consistent shot placement. The 5.56 NATO cartridge itself is NATO-standardized (SAAMI spec 5.56x45mm), ensuring safe functioning across military-pattern rifles, AR-platform carbines, and civilian sporting rifles chambered in .223 Remington or 5.56 NATO. This ammunition is suitable for intermediate-distance shooting where the lighter 55-grain projectile retains sufficient energy for target engagement to 300 yards and beyond.
Operators, law enforcement, and serious enthusiasts running carbine training courses, qualification events, or precision rifle practice will find this load delivers the velocity and consistency expected from Hornady's manufacturing standards. The case quantity (200 rounds across 10 boxes of 20) suits high-volume shooters and unit procurement. This is field-proven ammunition for shooters who demand predictable performance without premium pricing.
