PPU’s Match line in .223 Remington (part no. PPM2231) loads a 69-grain hollow point boat tail bullet, one of the most common match weights for the cartridge, built for precise shooting at both short and long ranges. PPU holds this line to special production and control processes that demand very narrow tolerances, using reliable primers for extreme consistency and carefully chosen powders for uniform ballistics from round to round. The 69-grain boat tail profile is a widely proven weight in .223/5.56 match circles, stabilizing well in the faster-twist barrels common on modern AR-platform rifles. This rifle ammunition is built for the shooter who wants match-level consistency without a match-level price tag.
