5.56 Nato, Non-FMJ?

(1/3) > >>

thirtydaZe:
I generally shoot at the BH, and in my fore-planning was just looking around a bit at ammo options.

Upon looking at the BH website, it states:


--- Quote ---HIGH POWER RIFLES Only rifle calibers with a velocity of under 3,500 fps and with a muzzle energy of under 3,000 foot pounds are allowed. If you are unsure if you caliber qualifies ask. All high power rifle ammo must have a lead soft point or hollow point bullet. No full metal jacket ammunition is allowed. NO belted magnum calibers are allowed.

--- End quote ---

anybody have any ammo options for me? 

i'm not looking to buy today, so my search hasn't been extensive, but what i have seen is all FMJ.

Ahhh, I think I see the problem...you are not buying your ammo from the BH  ::)

See if you can find some quality reman ammo using Hornady 55gr PSP bullets ( soft point )

This is the bullet I use for all my plinking loads in .223

FarmerRick:
Is .223 pressure loads ok, or are you looking especially for something loaded to NATO specs?

For shooting at the BH I would suggest this: http://ammunitionstore.com/products/223-5-56x45-ammo-55gr-hp-wolf-1000-round-case.html

55 grain HP and it's steel cased, so you don't have to worry about collecting your brass there.

on the fritz:
BH...?

& .223/5.56 = high power rifle ammo..?!?!????? 

RobertH:
BH = bullet hole.

i would rather go to Take Aim.  been to the bullet hole once and will never go back.  i hear great things about Take Aim however, but i have never been there.
