Barnes Multi-Purpose green (MPG) Bullets .22 cal .224" 55 gr MPGFB 100/ct

The Barnes Multi-Purpose green (MPG) Bullets .22 cal .224" 55 gr MPGFB are purpose-built frangible rounds designed for law enforcement and military tactical applications where barrier penetration control and reduced over-penetration risk are mission-critical. Unlike full metal jacket or solid copper alternatives, these .224-inch diameter projectiles deliver consistent terminal performance in confined environments, training scenarios, and high-risk operations where civilian safety or collateral damage mitigation demands precision ammunition selection.

Each 55-grain bullet features Barnes' proprietary powdered-metal copper-tin composite core bonded to a gliding metal jacket, a construction that distinguishes these rounds from conventional offerings on the market. The frangible design fractures upon impact with hard surfaces or ballistic barriers, significantly reducing ricochet potential and secondary projectile hazards—critical advantages in urban or populated settings. This bullet construction maintains velocity stability and flight characteristics consistent with standard .224" ammunition, ensuring drop-zero compatibility with existing .22-caliber rifle loadings while delivering the terminal safety profile tactical operators require.

Law enforcement agencies, military training facilities, and professional tactical shooters benefit most from these rounds in close-quarters battle drills, indoor range work, and scenarios where hostage proximity or structural ricochet risk demands ammunition engineered for controlled fragmentation. The 100-count box format supports both high-volume training cycles and field deployment. Verify your firearm's .22 or .224-inch chamber specifications before purchase, as proper caliber matching is essential for safe and accurate performance in all tactical rifle platforms.
