Nemo Arms 5.56x45mm NATO FMJ BT Ammo FAQ;
The boat tail design improves the bullet's aerodynamics, resulting in better long-range accuracy and reduced drag. This feature contributes to the ammunition's consistent performance at extended distances.
Yes, the brass cases of this ammunition are reloadable. However, always follow proper reloading procedures and consult reliable reloading data to ensure safe and effective reloads.
While effective, this ammunition may not be ideal for home defense due to its high velocity and potential for overpenetration. Specialized defensive ammunition is often recommended for home defense scenarios.
Barrel length can significantly impact velocity, with longer barrels generally providing higher velocities. The stated 3250 fps is likely achieved with a 20" barrel, and shorter barrels may see some velocity reduction.
When used in a quality firearm, this ammunition is capable of excellent accuracy, often producing groups of 1-2 MOA or better. However, actual accuracy can vary depending on the firearm, shooter skill, and environmental conditions.
This ammunition can be used with suppressors, but its high velocity may result in louder report compared to subsonic options. Always ensure your suppressor is rated for the caliber and pressure of this ammunition.
While not completely waterproof, this ammunition features sealed primers and case mouths to provide excellent resistance to moisture. This helps maintain reliability in adverse weather conditions.
Yes, this ammunition is suitable for use in bolt action rifles chambered for 5.56x45mm NATO or .223 Remington (with manufacturer approval). Its consistent performance can contribute to excellent accuracy in precision rifle platforms.
The 55gr bullet may experience slightly more wind drift than heavier bullets at long ranges. However, its high velocity helps to mitigate this effect, providing good overall wind resistance for its weight class.
Yes, this ammunition is safe and effective to use in firearms with chrome-lined barrels. The FMJ bullet design helps to minimize wear on the barrel, contributing to long-term accuracy and reliability.
