ATOMIC Subsonic .223 Remington 77gr Nosler BTHP

ATOMIC‘s Subsonic ammunition in .223 Remington (brand part no. 00429) loads a 77-grain Nosler boat tail hollow point at 1,050 feet per second, engineered as a Tactical Cycling Subsonic round for shooters who need a subsonic load that still reliably cycles a semi-auto action. Many subsonic loads struggle to generate enough gas pressure to fully cycle a gas-operated rifle; ATOMIC tunes this load specifically to solve that problem rather than just downloading a standard round. At 1,050 fps, the 77-grain Nosler BTHP generates 188 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, quiet enough to make a real difference through a suppressor. Made in the USA and loaded in reloadable brass, this rifle ammunition ships in a reusable plastic box built for repeat trips to the range.
