Description

Remington UMC .223 Remington ammunition (part no. 23906) loads a light, fast 45-grain Jacketed Hollow Point bullet built for varmint hunting, target shooting, and any high-volume day at the range. Remington builds the UMC line entirely in the USA, offering great value without compromising quality across its lineup of full metal jacket and jacketed hollow point rifle loads. At roughly 3,550 fps, this light, high-velocity bullet expands violently on impact, exactly what varmint hunters want for fast, decisive results on small, fast-moving targets. Fifty rounds to the box in brass cases, this is rifle ammunition built for shooters who want more range time for less money.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this bullet built for hunting or target shooting? Both; the light, fast JHP bullet is equally suited to varmint hunting and high-volume target practice.

Why is the velocity so much higher than standard .223 loads? The light 45-grain bullet weight allows Remington to push velocity to roughly 3,550 fps, which drives the rapid expansion varmint hunters want.

Is UMC ammunition made overseas? No, Remington manufactures the UMC line in the USA to a consistent quality standard.
