Hornady Superformance 5.56 NATO rifle ammunition is engineered to increase muzzle velocity by 100 to 200 fps over standard cartridges without increasing chamber pressure, recoil, muzzle blast, or fouling. Loaded with specialized progressive propellants, this load extracts maximum ballistic performance and flat trajectories from your rifle.
Featuring the monolithic copper alloy CX bullet weighing 55 grains, this round delivers deep penetration, high weight retention, and devastating terminal performance on medium game. The aerodynamic profile and advanced design maintain uncompromising accuracy and unfailing consistency across broad operating temperature ranges.
Every cartridge is manufactured with premium brass cases and high-grade primers to ensure reliable cycling and ignition across semi-automatic, bolt-action, and lever-action platforms. Each standard retail box contains 20 centerfire rifle rounds suitable for hunting and precision shooting.
