Frequently asked questions

What does FMJ mean and why does it matter for this ammunition?

FMJ (full metal jacket) means the lead core is completely enclosed in a copper jacket. This design reduces fouling, improves feed reliability, and is typical for range and training use rather than hunting applications.

Is this 200-count ammo can good for long-term storage?

Yes. The sealed can protects rounds from moisture and dust. Store in a cool, dry location away from extreme temperature swings. Hornady cases are brass, which resists corrosion when kept properly.
