Double Tap's .223 Remington 62-grain FMJ ammunition delivers reliable, consistent performance for range work, tactical training, and general rifle shooting. Manufactured in Cedar City, Utah, this is fresh-loaded ammunition built on new components throughout—not surplus—giving you predictable ballistics and dependable function across semi-automatic platforms and bolt-action rifles alike.

Each round uses a 62-grain full metal jacket boat-tail projectile with a steel penetrator core, the same design principles found in military-spec loadings. The boat-tail design promotes aerodynamic stability, while the steel-core construction delivers reliable penetration and consistent shot placement. Whether you're zeroing at 100 yards, running drills at distance, or putting rounds downrange for load development, this ammunition is engineered for repeatability and clean, predictable ballistics.

Double Tap's commitment to quality control and new-component manufacturing means you're getting ammunition with tight tolerances and consistent powder charges—factors that matter when you're trying to build tight groups. The .223 Remington remains one of the most versatile rifle cartridges available, and this load covers a broad range of shooting applications without compromise. You're buying confidence in every round fired.
