Red Earth Ammo 62gr Hornady Soft Point .223 REM Centrefire Ammo - 1000 Round Slab Key Features
- Calibre and Bullet Weight: Chambered in .223 REM with a 62 grain Hornady Soft Point projectile, offering a heavier-for-calibre option that improves sectional density and aids penetration compared to lighter .223 loads.
- Muzzle Velocity: Rated at 3,250 fps (990 m/s), delivering a flat trajectory and high energy transfer at practical hunting and culling distances.
- Hornady Soft Point Projectile: The Hornady SP design is engineered for controlled, reliable expansion on impact with solid weight retention, meaning energy is deposited into the target efficiently for fast, clean kills rather than over-penetration or fragmentation failure.
- Brass Casing: Loaded in annealed brass, which extends case life, improves neck tension consistency, and ensures reliable chambering and extraction across extended shooting sessions.
- CCI Primers: CCI primers are well regarded for their consistent ignition sensitivity and reliability, contributing to shot-to-shot consistency and tight group performance.
- 1000-Round Slab: Packaged as a 1000-round slab, making it a practical bulk purchase for high-volume pest control, extended culling operations, or regular range sessions where consistent ammo matters.
- Australian Hunting Applications: Developed with local quarry and conditions in mind, this load is well suited for foxes, rabbits, feral pigs, and deer within appropriate distance and calibre limitations.
- Clean Burning: Formulated to shoot clean, reducing fouling buildup in the barrel and action during extended use sessions.
- Australian-Owned Brand: Red Earth Ammo is an Australian-owned company, built specifically around the needs of Australian hunters and pest controllers rather than adapted from overseas market loads.
- Country of Manufacture: Manufactured in the USA to consistent quality standards, combining American manufacturing precision with Australian market specification.
For hunters and licensed pest controllers after a reliable, volume-friendly .223 load that doesn't compromise on terminal performance, the Red Earth Razorback 62gr Hornady SP in a 1000-round slab is a serious option worth having on the shelf.
