20rds – 223 Rem Winchester Super-X 55gr. BTHP Ammo

Winchester Ammunition 55 Grain Hollow-Point Boat Tail (HP-BT) Ammo Details

Got an AR-15? Why not invest in some 223 Rem ammo that’s just as good for hunting varmints as it is punching bullseyes? Winchester’s Super-X ammunition fits both bills to a T.

This round’s 55 grain bullet is a boat tail hollow point. Its base is gently tapered to appreciably lessen the amount of drag it encounters in flight. This helps the bullet remain faster, which effectively flattens its trajectory and increases the amount of energy with which it can strike its target.

Contrary to what many people might think, the BTHP bullet’s hollow point isn’t actually designed to initiate terminal expansion. The opening in this bullet’s tip exists because molten lead was poured through it at the factory. That’s why this bullet’s core is so evenly distributed, which alongside its thin, concentric jacket promotes better accuracy.

This is American-made ammunition. That means there is no steel in its bullets, and there are no corrosive chemicals in its primers. A Super-X round’s case is always pure brass and always reloadable. Order one box and you’ll only wish you’d ordered more!
