Description
Frontier Cartridge, made by Hornady, packed this special-edition 250-round ammo can for America’s 250th anniversary. It holds 5.56 NATO ammo loaded with Hornady 55-grain full metal jacket bullets. A free Frontier hat and sticker come inside every can, so it’s a good pick for stocking up or for a gift.
Each round has a brass case, a military-grade Boxer primer, carefully chosen propellant, and a Hornady FMJ bullet with no steel core, so it’s safe to use at ranges that ban steel-core ammo. It’s rated at 3,240 fps and 1,282 ft-lbs at the muzzle, which is the high-velocity performance you expect from mil-spec 5.56. That makes it a good fit for AR-15s and other 5.56 NATO rifles. Use it for training, target shooting, or high-volume range days.
The red, white, and blue plastic ammo can has a carry handle and a latching lid. You can keep reusing it to store or carry ammo after the rounds are gone. Frontier Cartridge has made ammo in the USA since 1949.
