The Lehigh Defense Controlled Chaos .223 Remington 62gr (brand part no. LA223-62-CC) drives a lead-free, machined solid-copper bullet built for hunters who want violent initial energy transfer with deep, straight-line penetration. Lehigh Defense machines the nose section to fragment into multiple petals on impact, radiating outward into separate wound channels, while the bore-diameter copper base drives on for reliable depth — a two-stage terminal design. Every lot is tested for consistent velocity and pressure before it ships. Among rifle ammunition, this Controlled Chaos load favors hunters who want lead-free terminal performance that repeats box after box.
