When you’re covering impressive distances with an 5.56x45mm rifle, a 55 grain full metal jacket just won’t do. You need something heavier. Something with better balance. Something exactly like the 68 grain boat tail hollow point Match by Hornady!

This cartridge’s bullet doesn’t just have the higher mass that goes hand in hand with increased resistance to wind deflection. Its secant ogive profile and boat tail both minimize the amount of resistance it encounters in the air, and its swaged lead core and Advanced Manufacturing Process jacket grant it superior gyroscopic stability. If fired from a 20” barrel, the bullet’s 2,960 fps muzzle velocity and .355 G1 BC will keep its trajectory supersonic until approximately 937 yards.

Hornady’s Frontier label 5.56 NATO ammunition is manufactured at the U.S. government’s Lake City Army Ammunition Plant. Its noncorrosive Boxer primers are crimped into new brass cases, which are reloadable. The military-grade cases are not polished following heat treatment – the sole reason for their necks’ cosmetic discoloration.
