Federal Gold Medal .223 Remington 77-Grain BTHP ammunition is purpose-built for precision rifle shooting and long-range accuracy work. This match-grade round pairs a 77-grain Sierra MatchKing boat-tail hollow-point bullet with Federal's proven reloading components to deliver the consistent, tight-grouping performance that serious competitors and long-range hunters demand at the range or in the field.

What sets Gold Medal apart is the combination of that proven MatchKing bullet design—engineered for ballistic consistency—with Federal's quality control on primers and proprietary powder formulation. Each component is selected and assembled to tight tolerances, so shot-to-shot velocity variation stays minimal and downrange performance stays predictable. Whether you're dialing in a new rifle, running a precision rifle course, or pushing distance in a competition, this ammunition rewards good shooting technique and quality optics.

You get 20 rounds per box, convenient for practice sessions, load testing, or taking to the range without hauling a full case. The .223 Remington platform remains the standard for AR-15 shooters and other modern rifles, making this a natural choice if you're running a .223 and serious about accuracy.
