The Hornady name is known to shooters, competitors, military, and law enforcement nationwide. Their products are extremely popular for their accuracy, reliability, manufacturing tolerances, and innovation in the industry. They have been around since the Mid 1940s after Mr. Hornady recognized the need for high quality, super accurate bullets made just for reloading and target shooters. He knew that there was nothing in the market resembling what he wanted to offer, so after a few bumps along the way, he went ahead with his plan. Their first commercially available bullet was a 30 caliber Spire point in the 150's grain weight category. From there, Hornady’s manufacturing began and has grown into the ammunition Juggernaut we all know today.

A: Hello Brad! Hornady lists the muzzle velocity of this match ammunition at 2930 fps out of a 24" test barrel.

A: If your rifle has a 1/9 twist, this would be a good choice for target practice. Any of the ammunition with 68gr or 75gr BTHP projectiles should provide accurate groups out of your rifle. The same goes for Hornady's 52gr BTHP and 55gr TAP FPD. If you are willing to sacrifice a little accuracy for a big reduction in price, the bulk 223 ammo will be good practice fodder.

A: Practically any standard .223/5.56 twist rate, from 1/6.5 to 1/14, will stabilize 55gr projectiles. 1/9 twist is needed for 62gr M855 and 69/73gr HPBT type ammo. 1/8 twist is recommended for anything that will fit in an AR-15 magazine (40-77gr) and then some, and 1/7 twist will stabilize tracers, anything that will fit in the magazine, and 80gr and 90gr HPBT ammo that has to be loaded one round at a time.

A: No, these Hornady 75gr HPBT bullets would not stabilize from a 1/12 twist barrel, even at close range. At a minimum, 1/9 twist would be necessary - 1/8 or 1/7 would be recommended, especially at 300 yards.
