DoubleTap Target .223 Remington 55-grain Full Metal Jacket Boat Tail ammunition (DoubleTap part no. 223R55T50) is a straightforward, accurate range load for the AR-15 and bolt-action .223 shooters putting rounds downrange by the box. Double Tap Ammunition loads the 55-grain FMJBT bullet to run in both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO chambers, with a boat-tail base that trims drag for a flatter trajectory at distance. It is a genuinely all-around loading, equally at home zeroing a new optic or burning through a case at the range. In rifle ammunition built for volume shooting, this is the load that keeps the range trip affordable.
