If you're loading ammunition for your .224 rifle, the Hornady 22 Caliber 62 Grain Full Metal Jacket bullet offers consistent, reliable performance at a practical price point—especially when bought by the box of 5,500. These FMJ rounds work well for target shooting, practice, and varmint applications where a durable, non-expanding projectile is appropriate. Hornady's manufacturing process focuses on precision tolerances that keep your handloads shooting true.
The 62-grain weight sits in the middle of the .224 performance envelope, balancing velocity and trajectory for typical rifle distances. FMJ construction means the lead core stays fully encased in a gilding-metal jacket—no exposed lead, which matters if you're shooting at indoor ranges or in jurisdictions with lead-free ammunition preferences. These bullets won't deform or come apart on impact the way cheaper, thin-jacketed alternatives sometimes do, so you get consistent downrange performance from one round to the next.
Bulk buying in 5,500-round boxes cuts your per-bullet cost significantly if you're a serious reloader or a club that shoots regularly. Store them in a cool, dry place and you've got a long-term supply that won't degrade. Whether you're fine-tuning loads for a competition rifle, running a high-volume practice session, or just keeping your .224 fed affordably, this bulk quantity makes sense for dedicated handloaders.

These are .224-diameter bullets designed for rifles chambered in .223 Remington, .223 WSSM, .22-250 Remington, and other cartridges that accept .224 projectiles. Always verify your rifle's chamber specification and consult appropriate reloading data for your specific cartridge before loading.
FMJ bullets are designed for non-expanding performance and are best suited for target, practice, and varmint shooting. They are not typically recommended for big-game hunting where expansion and controlled penetration are important; check local hunting regulations and choose appropriate ammunition for your specific application.
Bulk purchasing significantly reduces your per-bullet cost, making it ideal for reloaders who shoot frequently, compete, or maintain a steady practice schedule. If you're casual about handloading, a smaller quantity might suit your needs better.
The full metal jacket means the lead core is completely enclosed in a gilding-metal jacket. These bullets provide consistent performance, won't shed material on impact like thinner-jacketed alternatives, and are preferred at ranges that restrict lead exposure. They're straightforward to reload using standard .224-diameter die sets and appropriate powder/primer combinations per published reloading data.
