We have big brains here at LuckyGunner.com. You see, we have all these 500-round cases of Federal Premium’s perennially popular American Eagle 223 Rem ammunition. But we wanted to sell them two at a time, because 1,000 is twice as good as 500. So what did we do? We listed two-case bundles for sale on our website, as evidenced by this thing you are currently reading.
You see? Smart.
If you’re also smart, then you’ll definitely order these two cases of ammo. You’ll get the very same tested-and-correct target-shooting satisfaction Federal’s American Eagle line has stood for since its introduction in 1961. More specifically, you get 223 Rem ammo that is more or less loaded to 5.56x45 M193 specifications, replete with 55 grain nonmagnetic full metal jacket boat tail projectiles and 3,240 fps muzzle velocity (out of Federal’s 24” test barrel, that is). You also get reloadable brass cases, noncorrosive primers, and the welling up of pride you can only feel while buying American.
We are so smart that we know how to use a ballistic calculator. Here is this 0.269 G1 BC round’s 200-yard trajectory in action:
0yds: 3,240 fps | 1,282 ft lbs | -1.5”
100yds: 2,874 fps | 1,009 ft lbs | 1.4”
200yds: 2,537 fps | 786 ft lbs | 0.0”
300yds: 2,224 fps | 604 ft lbs | -6.8”
400yds: 1,933 fps | 457 ft lbs | -20.7”
500yds: 1,669 fps | 340 ft lbs | -44.0”
