PPU’s Standard Rifle line in .223 Remington (part no. PP223F2) loads a 62-grain full metal jacket boat tail bullet, a heavier-than-standard weight built specifically for big game hunting applications. PPU uses only quality components in production, engineering the line for accuracy and dependability shot after shot. The boat tail design improves the bullet’s ballistic coefficient over a flat-base FMJ, holding velocity better at extended range. This rifle ammunition gives .223 shooters a heavier bullet option than a standard 55-grain load, useful for hunting as well as target work.
