Remington Core-Lokt HyperSonic 223 Remington/5.56 NATO 62 GR PSP (Per 20) PRH223R4
Great for competition, hunting or plinking, Remington Hypersonic Bonded Rifle ammunition delivers the best performance possible in a centerfire hunting round. Users can expect higher velocities resulting in a flatter shooting bullet that delivers more energy down range. Remington has also chosen a bonded bullet that expands to 1.8 times its original diameter at all distances while still maintaining 95% of its original weight. This results in maximum energy transfer along with great penetration. With all of these features, Hypersonic Bonded Rifle ammunition gives the hunter the most versatile load possible with accuracy and ballistic performance over a huge range of distance. This ammunition is non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable brass cases.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
Introduced in 1964, the 223 Remington is the civilian version of the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge. Although very similar to the 222 Remington it has a slightly longer case and a shorter neck, giving it greater powder capacity and thus higher velocity--which was necessary to meet military penetration requirements at longer range. NOTE: 223 Remington ammunition may be safely fired in any 5.56x45mm chamber, but 5.56x45mm ammunition SHOULD NOT BE USED in a 223 chamber! Standard is a 55-grain bullet at 3240 feet per second, with lighter bullets somewhat faster and heavier bullets a bit slower. The 223 is the most popular 22 centerfire today, and possiby the most popular centerfire cartridge. Ammunition choices are legion, as are choices in firearms. The 223 is an accurate cartridge ideally suited for varmint hunting out to beyond 300 yards, and with heavy-bullet loads designed for the purpose is used effectively by many deer hunters.
