Hornady Superformance Match 223 Remington 75 grain Jacketed Hollow Point ammunition bridges the gap between velocity and precision. A 223 Remington cartridge is a centerfire rifle round designed for semi-automatic and bolt-action platforms chambered in .223 Remington or 5.56 NATO (verify your chamber before firing). At 2930 feet per second from a 24-inch barrel, this load generates 1429 foot-pounds of muzzle energy and extends effective range on steel targets and paper at 300 yards and beyond. The Jacketed Hollow Point bullet, built on Hornady’s AMP (Advanced Manufacturing Process) jacket technology, maintains a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.395 and sectional density of 0.214 — numbers that translate to reduced wind drift and reliable terminal expansion when paired with match-grade trigger control.
Built for the Box
Each round starts with new-production brass cases and non-corrosive Boxer primers. Hornady blends temperature-stable propellants specific to the Superformance Match line, yielding 100 to 200 fps velocity gains over standard 75-grain loads without increasing peak pressure beyond SAAMI limits. The 75-grain Jacketed Hollow Point bullet features a boat-tail base and concentricity held to match-grade tolerances. Brass cases remain reloadable after firing, and the supersonic velocity rating keeps rounds above the sound barrier out to distances where transonic instability would degrade accuracy in subsonic designs.
