The Hornady® 223 Rem. 55 gr. TAP Urban® offers high velocity in shorter barreled firearms. It offers similar performance to the Hornady® 40 grain bullet with increases in penetration and retained weight. These factors make this bullet a good choice when collateral risk is high but the possibility of barrier penetration is also present. The 55 gr. bullet will begin to fragment in barriers but will still retain adequate velocity, weight and penetration to provide significant stopping power upon exit from the barrier.
Intended for use in a 1-7"-1-12" twist barrel. Performs optimally in a 1-9"-1-12" twist.
