Description

PPU ammunition in .223 Remington (brand part no. PP223S) loads a 55-grain soft point bullet for shooters who want a dependable, affordable round for varmint hunting and range work. PPU (Prvi Partizan) manufactures this load in Serbia to consistent tolerances, pairing boxer-primed reloadable brass with a soft point that expands on game where a full metal jacket would not. Rated at 3,240 fps, it runs a flat, brisk trajectory typical of 55-grain .223 loads. Find it filed with our rifle ammunition lineup for the shooter stocking up on a proven standard-weight load.
