5.56 NATOMatch practice
69 grain HPBT
Match · Target · Precision training
A proven match bullet for .223 Remington rifles. Flatter trajectory and tighter groups than bulk ammo, at a price that lets you actually train. Popular on AR-15 platforms for dialling optics and ringing steel.
Worth knowing. Open Tip Match is a manufacturing artifact of a more precise jacket, not an expanding hollow point. This is a target load.

Match practice
Match. Target. Precision training.
What it runs in
No guesswork.
5.56 NATO chamber
AR-15 pattern rifles
Carbines, mid-length and rifle gas. Anything marked 5.56 NATO or .223 Wylde runs every rifle load we make.
Check your twist rate before you buy the 77 grain.
.223 Rem chamber
Bolt guns in .223 Remington
Varmint and precision rifles. Stick to the loads built on .223 Remington brass.
A .223-only chamber should not be fed 5.56 NATO.
How it’s made
Three checks. Every batch.
Pressure tested
Every batch of brass is pressure tested before it is loaded.
Twice inspected
Two-stage visual inspection. Anything that does not pass does not ship.
Then polished
Every round polished before it is packaged.
