Federal American Eagle 223 Rem Varmint & Predator 50 HP Bullet

[204Gunner]

Is this a Speer TNT bullet or ???

No, not in any of the FAE varmint/pred 223 or 22-250 ammo I have on hand. Different shape(less pointy) and Fed bullets have a cannelure. The Fed bullets are flatbase. Low quality bullets,compared to the TNT.

I recall looking to see what that bullet was before, and i dont think i could find that is was available as a component bullet to reloaders. I think they were actually producing that load before Federal and Speer were under one roof? But it IS an accurate factory round for most guns ive shot it in.

They maybe plated, I didn't grind one to see inside. I didn't like them, plinking ammo.

Their no good on prairie dogs. 223 with a 20 inch barrel the bullets had no expansion. Acted like fmj

I don't know for sure what bullet they are but I've shot a few coyotes with those in my .223, also blew a jackrabbits head clean off at 350 yards out of my 22-250 using the same bullet. I haven't shot them in a long time but they killed stuff.
