64-Grain Soft Point Performance Profile

Federal's PowerShok line has established itself through straightforward engineering rather than marketing. The 64-grain soft-point projectile in .223 REM splits the difference between velocity and bullet integrity, making it suitable for medium-range work and practice sessions. Brass cases allow reloaders to recycle fired rounds. Twenty rounds per box means you're buying in practical quantities.

Frequently asked questions

Is this ammunition suitable for AR-15 platforms chambered in 5.56 NATO?

.223 REM and 5.56 NATO share the same case dimensions. This Federal load will chamber and fire reliably in 5.56 NATO rifles, though 5.56 ammunition is often loaded to higher pressures. Always verify your firearm's markings.

What does the 64-grain bullet weight mean for trajectory and wind drift?

Lighter bullets like 64 grains drop faster and drift more in crosswind than heavier alternatives. They excel for closer-range work and varmint applications where velocity matters more than ballistic coefficient.
