Frequently Asked Questions
Is this ammunition compatible with my AR-15 chambered in 5.56 NATO?
Yes, .223 Remington ammunition can be safely fired in rifles chambered for 5.56 NATO. The 5.56 NATO chamber has slightly more headspace than a dedicated .223 chamber, so .223 Rem rounds fire without issue in 5.56 NATO rifles. However, note that 5.56 NATO ammo should not be fired in a rifle marked strictly as ".223 Remington only" due to higher pressure levels in 5.56 loads.
Is Armscor FMJ ammunition suitable for target shooting and training?
Absolutely. The 55-grain FMJ is one of the most popular bullet configurations for range training, competition practice, and general plinking. The full metal jacket design minimizes barrel fouling compared to soft points, feeds smoothly in semi-automatic platforms, and delivers the consistent point-of-impact repeatability that makes it excellent for zeroing your optics or working on marksmanship fundamentals.
Can I reload the brass casings from this Armscor ammunition?
Yes. Armscor uses boxer-primed brass cases, which are fully reloadable. The single, centered flash hole makes spent primer removal and re-priming straightforward with standard reloading equipment. Many reloaders find Armscor brass to be consistent in wall thickness and weight, making it a solid foundation for precision hand loads after the first firing.
