Consistency, accuracy, *and* American-made quality in every box? Why, it could only be Federal Premium’s American Eagle series 5.56x45mm ammunition: a trusted pal to AR-15 devotees nationwide!
Don’t want a bullet with all kinds of bells and whistles for target practice? Then the 55 grain full metal jacket boat tail checks your biggest box. It’s a lead core, cupped-and-drawn gilding metal jacket, tapering base for improved aerodynamics at long range, and naught else. If the bullet attains Federal’s advertised muzzle velocity, its .246 G1 BC will carry it to 200 yards in about .22 seconds, and then allow it to drop -7.5” at 300 yards (assuming 1.5” sight).
American Eagle ammo is loaded with noncorrosive Boxer-primed brass cases that ought to meet any handloader’s standards for their own target loads. These rounds’ cases are *new*. Any gray coloration you see around their necks and shoulders is simply evidence that they were annealed (i.e. heat-treated to prevent splitting/cracking around the mouth on ignition).
