223 Swaged bullets

This 3/16" steel plate was shot at 100 yards using our very own 223 55 grain swaged bullet with a velocity of 3150fps. Our swaged bullet are made from spent 22lr cases with a lead core. From start to finish it takes 8 steps to make a bullet but we don't mind when we get results like this. 

The brass case forms the jacket of the bullet. Brass has a higher zinc content than copper which lessens the friction between the bullet and barrel. Less friction equals longer barrel life. The down side is they cannot be loaded to velocities over 3200fps. Any velocity over that and you run the risk of the bullet coming apart. 

We currently have 52gr-56gr bullets in stock. Ready for you to load with your favorite powder. They are packaged in 100 count bags and are for sale for $20 per bag. If you need them shipped we will ship them priority flat rate.
