20 Rounds of .223 Ammo by Scorpio - 55gr FMJ

Scorpio. It’s one of the cooler astrological symbols. Definitely better than my own: Virgo, which means “maiden,” or something even more embarrassing to be when you are a grown man.

That’s why I appreciate Scorpio 223 Rem ammunition. It sounds neat, it fills my AR mags without stinging me in the wallet, and it’s not made by some hole-in-the-wall operation I can’t find on a map.

This ammo is made by one of the Czech Republic’s largest military equipment and explosives manufacturers. They didn’t do anything silly with it. It’s loaded with 55 grain full metal jacket projectiles, each of which contains the lead alloy core and copper alloy jacket it requires not to attract a magnet. Let these dogs off their leashes at ranges which disallow magnetic ammo. You’ll be fine.

STV Group (and by extension Scorpio) ammunition is exclusively loaded with new brass cases. Their single, centered flash holes and noncorrosive Boxer primers make this ammo’s shells handloadable!
