Most Helpful Positive Review not bad at all
Cycled through my AR 15 pretty dam good at the range. No problems whatsoever. Will buy again definitely. Only problem is I ran through the ammo a lot faster than I wanted to.. but the price wasn’t so bad that I couldn’t afford more so I do recommend this product.

More Bang For Your Buck

by Adrian Lambrinos, Verified Owner from UT, United States Written on October 25, 2025
I love Hornady in general for their top tier .223, but the Frontier 55 grain has become my go to for running drills because I don’t have to spend an arm and a leg for quality ammo. I get tighter groups with the .223 when compared to the 5.56 version of Frontier and better precision than PMC X-Tac.

Decent ammo

by Jp, from MO, United States Written on August 3, 2022
Not bad for lower priced ammo.I haven't had any issue with Frontier ammo. It Cycles good through my rifle. Clean shooting with a nice group at 100 yards. Would buy it again. The only draw back.. this stupid review wants me to write a book about it.
Best Used for:
  • Range shooting

Bang for the Buck, Frontier Ammo

by Vernster, Verified Owner from CO, United States Written on July 7, 2021
I was looking for some ammo to fill some mags i picked up on sale and searched around for a spell. For the price and the quality of these Hornaday bullet rounds, ft. per second, and performance specs, it was an easy decision. Also OpticsPlanet, you know you my favorite.

Great Ammo

by Jesse Howington, from NC, United States Written on May 1, 2021
Can’t complain about the Ammo . Never back fired or give me one bit of trouble. Right Ammo for my rifle . Just wasn’t expecting it to be as small of bullets . Doesn’t leave much flash at all . Great bullets
