Hornady Frontier 5.56x45mm NATO 68 Grain Boat-Tail Hollow Point Centerfire Rifle Ammunition FR310 for All Purpose — Coupon Available, 31% Off
There is not that big of a difference between the Hornady Frontier 5.56x45mm NATO 68 Grain Boat-Tail Hollow Point and the Hornady Frontier .223 Remington 68 Grain Boat-Tail Hollow Point. 5.56x45mm NATO has a slightly different shoulder profile and longer throat which allows it to be loaded to a pressure. The guide at the link below will help explain the difference. https://www.opticsplanet.com/howto/223-remington-vs-5-56mm-nato-ammo.html
Half moa consistently. Point Of Impact very close to M193 at 100 yards. This was all achieved using a Faxon .223 Wylde 16" Pencil barrel. My experience has led me to prefer this ammunition over all others.
It was hard to fine this in stock or even a decent price for under $1.50/per.
5.56 68gr BTHP was something I was looking, not a subsonic per description but something enough use suppressed pr not. Gopd enough for HD/SD on a 14.5. Thanks OpticsPlanet...
