Federal Ammunition Varmint & Predator ammunition in .223 Remington (brand part no. V223VM53) is a flat-shooting varmint load for long shots on small, fast targets. Federal Ammunition backs this load with the quality control shooters expect from a name they already trust. At the heart of this load is the 53 gr bullet with a v-max design, matched to the .223 Remington platform shooters already run. In our rifle ammunition lineup, this is the Federal Ammunition load built for that job.
