Federal‘s American Eagle ammunition in .223 Remington (brand part no. AE223T75) loads a 75-grain total metal jacket bullet built for consistent, accurate performance at a price that’s right for high-volume shooting. American Eagle rifle ammunition pairs quality bullets with reloadable brass cases and dependable primers, giving .223 shooters a range-day option that doesn’t sacrifice reliability for cost.
