The Berger Bullets .224 73gr Target BT delivers match-grade precision for competitive shooters and serious handloaders who demand accuracy at distance. These boat-tail target rounds are engineered for rifles with 1-7", 1-8", or 1-9" twist rates, making them ideal for modern AR platforms, precision bolt guns, and other .224-caliber setups. Built to feed reliably through standard magazines and conform to SAAMI overall length specs, they're designed for shooters who want accuracy without compromise—whether you're zeroing in at mid-range or stretching shots beyond 600 yards.

The 73-grain boat-tail design combines a tangent ogive profile with J4 Precision jackets for exceptional load consistency and predictable performance. The tight manufacturing tolerances (±.0001" Total Indicated Runout) mean each round chambers and chambers again with minimal variation, so your loads stay true and your groups stay tight. This is the kind of quality that separates match ammunition from the rest.

Each box contains 100 bullets, giving you a solid foundation for your reloading bench. Whether you're developing loads for competition, testing your rifle's potential, or simply demanding the best components for your handloads, these Berger boat-tails reward precision with precision.
