Description
Remington’s UMC division, which is the extant remainder of the historic Union Metallic Cartridge Company, provides an incredibly cost-effective solution to high volume shooting without having to sacrifice quality. They can do this because they only make ammunition according to American shooters’ most requested specifications, thus limiting their production to what sells best.
rThis 223 Rem cartridge is best suited for training and target practice. Its 62 grain bullet is an “closed tip flat base,†an unusual designation, but in substance it’s not different enough from a full metal jacket to merit an in depth analysis of its characteristics. Its bullet’s jacket will cause this round to feed reliably in a magazine fed weapon, and also prevent the kind of lead fouling which would eventually spoil accuracy.
rThis round’s brass casing is perfect if you’d like to handload it after the fact, and its non-corrosive primer means both that it’ll preserve your action and bore and sit contentedly in its box for several years.
