Federal Premium MeatEater 223 Remington 55 grain trophy copper tipped ammunition is engineered for hunters who demand clean, ethical kills on small to mid-sized game. Built around Federal's Trophy Copper bullet—a copper-alloy projectile with a polymer tip—this lead-free round delivers reliable expansion and deep penetration across typical hunting distances. The 55 grain load in 223 Remington offers a practical balance of velocity, trajectory, and terminal performance for varmint and predator work, as well as hunting scenarios where non-toxic ammunition is required or preferred.
The Trophy Copper bullet's design centers on consistent expansion across a wide velocity range, which matters because real-world shots happen at varying distances and angles. The grooved bullet shank promotes accuracy across different firearms, while the boat-tail profile and polymer tip work together to improve ballistic coefficient—meaning flatter trajectories and retained energy downrange. Copper-alloy construction provides up to 99 percent weight retention, so the bullet penetrates deep without fragmenting prematurely, a key trait for ethical, one-shot kills. Each box contains 20 rounds, ready to load and shoot.
Whether you're zeroing at the range, working varmint country, or hunting medium game where lead-free ammunition is mandated, Federal Premium MeatEater 223 Remington delivers the accuracy and terminal performance hunters have relied on from Federal for decades.
