20 Rounds of 55gr FMJ 5.56x45 Ammo by Sellier & Bellot

The AR-15 is a versatile weapon, and its fan following is vast. Among its uses are hunting, plinking, and even home defense. There is a clear divide between the two sides of the home-defense shooting world: those who prefer pistols, and those who love long guns. Those who prefer rifles like the AR-15 cite the greater ease of aiming – even for the less experienced – due to the longer barrel, larger magazine capacity, and, of course, overall velocity and energy. An intruder faced with the visually intimidating sight of a homeowner brandishing an AR-15 would certainly be given pause, and if you want to use your rifle to protect your castle, you need practice.

These target rounds are a lightweight 55 grain, so they’ll fly down-range with lightning speed. They’re FMJ, so they don’t expand on impact but simply penetrate, so when you train, make sure you have a solid backstop. Rifle rounds can travel miles, so you have to choose your training area carefully. These are great for target practice, tactical training, and those days you just want to fire a few rounds down-range to take down some pop cans. They fly from the barrel of your rifle with phenomenal speed at 3283 feet per second and make a serious impact with a muzzle energy of 1317 foot-pounds.
