Description

PPU RangeMaster 5.56×45 55-grain FMJBT rifle ammunition (brand part no. PPRM5561M) packages a full case of brass-cased ammunition inside a single resealable metal can instead of a stack of cardboard boxes. PPU builds this load with reloadable brass cases and a boat-tail full metal jacket bullet, giving AR-platform shooters dependable function at a genuinely low cost per round. The 55-grain bullet is the standard training weight for 5.56×45, cycling reliably through mil-spec and sporting rifles alike. Because the can holds a full 1000 rounds and reseals between range trips, it protects unused ammunition from moisture better than an open cardboard case. For high-volume range training without the premium price of duty-grade ammunition, RangeMaster delivers.

Key Specifications

  • The chambering is 5.56×45, running in both mil-spec and sporting AR-platform rifles.
  • The bullet weighs 55 grains, the standard training weight for the 5.56×45 cartridge.
  • The projectile is a Full Metal Jacket Boat-Tail (FMJBT), a non-expanding bullet built for reliable function rather than terminal expansion.

  • Cost works out to roughly $0.63 per round, competitive pricing for a case-lot 5.56×45 purchase.

  • The can holds a full 1000 rounds, enough for extended range sessions without repackaging.
  • Shipping weight runs approximately 32.5 pounds, typical for a dense metal can of rifle ammunition.
