Overview
Average Velocity: 3200 fps

This full metal jacket round is capable of firing in barrels labeled as 5.56x45mm NATO, .223 Rem, and .223 Wylde. On top of that, the projectile is the ideal weight for a wide range of barrel twist rates, 1-in-7, 1-in-9, and 1-in-8, are just a few examples of barrels that this round run accurately with.

Great Ammo - Awesome Price
By George
This is my first order of remanufactured Ammo but won't be my last. Great Ammo
at an amazing price. Shoots clean & accurate. Of the 400 rounds not a single FTF
or any other issue. Highly recommend, I will be ordering more of this ammo soon. -
best ammo around
By steven
you get more than what you pay for, extremely good ammo at a good price. I've ordered over 1000rnds and haven't had a single issue. I don't do any kind of shooting beyond 200yds so i cant really tell you how well it performs beyond that but anything within 200 its as spot on as can be. I don't buy my ammo any place but here. -
Best 223 in my opinion
By Bill
This ammo shoots great out of my guns. Feeds great and is accurate enough for my needs. Have gotten 500 yard hits with this ammo. Good stuff. -
You won't be disappointed
By Charlie
Purchased this for my Diamond Back AR to see how good it was. I was honestly expecting jams with this ammo but to my surprise not 1 jammed at all. Every round went right through with no issues. I've bought popular brand name ammo and have had jams with at least 2 rounds per box but none at all wit these which surprised me. I highly recommend this ammo to anyone looking for quality ammo at a good price. -
Ammo for the serious shooter.
By Duckhunter
I have tried many types of ammo. Freedom munitions remanufactured and new ammo is great. It has shot flawless through all my firearms. The vmax 60gr and 55 gr are awesome. -
Skeptical at first!
By MemUtah
I bought around 300 rds of (reman) 223 and a box of 556 (reman). Comparing this ammo to new store bought ammo, ummm, no diffrence. Ive been wasting money at local stores way to long. I will always buy my ammo from this website for here on out. Fantastic ammo, not one issue after 350 rds.
"Told the wife fathers day is coming up soon, need more ammo asap." -
Sub MOA capable. Best in class and better than most new manufactured ammo.
By Bonzaipilot
Frankly this is the best reman on the market and is much better than most new ammo you can buy. I'm buying 5000 rounds this week. Do yourself a favor and just buy it. It's sub MOA capable if you and your platform are.
Bought 1000 rounde to see how it functioned. It ran great in a full FNH 20 A2 mil issue with a chf chrome lined barrel with a Aero lower. It shot just under a it shot under a inch consistently. Best group was .56 center to center at 100. On a Aero build M4 with a 16 inch FNH chf chrome lined barrel it shot also under a inch consistently best group .69 c to c. My Colt Will group at just over a inch. Best a .72 c to c. All are 5.56 chambers.
This rivals my hand loads and gives me great brass for reloading. No ftf's of any sort or misfires. -
Excellent
By CBR
Just as good or better than any factory ammo I have bought. 500 rds, Not one jam or misfire. Clean burning ammo. -
Good quality
By Octavio
This was my first choice To my new at 15 and I am very happy with the quality, I shoot over a 1,000 round no issues at all . great price, quality first iam glad I choose freedom munitions I put the decal of freedom munitions in my back car window next to my retired navy veteran decal very respectfully Octavio. -
Excellent.
By RJ
Got a box to try as the New was out of stock. This worked as good through my AR as the brand new Federal I had. There is no question I will be buying this again for stock up and target practice. -
Reliable Ammo
By Mak
Finally took this ammo to the range.
I was concern because of my 3lb pull trigger kit on my new built AR.
Not to worry had no misfire shot 50 rounds. Manage to get a 5/8" grouping
all bulls eye after dialing in my scope at 100 yards indoor. I know it'll be better once my new build breaks in.
Definately buying more ammo. -
223 55GR VMAX
By RAIDER

Great stuff
By M3driver
I've fired hundreds of rounds of this plus other calibers. never a problem whatsoever. -
Great deal
By Mak
@ 29 cent a round, I bought 1000 rnds.
Free shipping no tax on black Friday.
Finally took this ammo to the range.
No misfire with my new build in an indoor range.
Once I got my scope dialed in
my best grouping was 5/8" at 100 yards
I'll eventually will get it tighter,
shooting for 1/4".
Thanks Freedom
great remanufactured rounds.

Great 3 Gun Ammo
By CEMO 3 gunner
I shoot about 1500-2000 rounds of this per year for the past 3 years and I love it. Very accurate and I've never had 1 failure! -
Great Ammo
By Heavy
This is great ammo for a great price. I will buy again and again! -
Same great quality different round
By Medwarrior
After shooting several thousand rounds of your 9mm reman, I decided to give your 223 reman a try. What can I say guys, your attention to consistency hasn't let me down. I appreciate the affordability of lower prices with a comparably kicka** product. I always share your company and product with my shooting buddies and friends. I hope your company continues to prosper and give us great quality at affordable prices. Freedom munitions is my goto for serious bulk purchasing. My only and I mean ONLY negative is that shipping can be a little slow. But it is always worth the wait! -

Quality at a great price
By Geobags
Purchased 1000 rounds based on the many favorable reviews and recommendations. Put 200 rounds downrange last week with absolutely no problems of any kind. The 7 to 11 cents per round savings translates to $70 to $110 in pocket money that can be used elsewhere. I'll be a repeat customer. -
Fantastic Ammo!
By Jonesy
I am new at the AR game, being an old revolver guy. My purchases of new and reman Ammo from Freedom for my handguns have been so good that I thought I would try some of this .223 reman. Just came back from the range and fired 3 brands of ammo to discover that this came out on top! At 5% off I can't pass up this deal! Today, I plan to order at least 500 or maybe 1000 more rounds. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK FREEDOM MUNITIONS!

Freedom Munitions is consistency exemplified
By Doug Boales
Consistently the best price
Consistently the best customer service
Consistently the best ammo performance
Whether I'm shooting 5.56, 7.62, 9mm, or .45 ACP, Freedom munitions offers high quality service and product.
The more I shoot "foreign"
ammo that I have picked up here and there over time, the more I appreciate Freedom Munitions.
BUY AMERICAN!

You won't find better
By Greg
Look no further. This ammo is fantastic. Quality stuff. For real. I am blown away at the quality vs price. 2 thumbs way up. -
RELIABLE
By Andrew
These rounds are great for target shooting. I've gone through 500 without any misfeeds or jams in my M&P15 and just ordered some more. -
Highly Impressed
By Chris
Extremely happy with my purchase. Every round went off without a hitch. No FTF/FTE. Will make many more purchases. Keep it up! -
Just Great
By Rainman
Bought 350 rounds of this ammo, haven't used them all up yet but i find the difference between this ammo and the more expensive ammo is...well honestly i can't tell the difference except for the price. Great ammo as far as i am concerned. -
Great ammunition for the price
By Sscarboro
This was my first purchase from Freesom
Munitions but it won't be my last. I ordered 500 rounds to go with a new rifle build. So far this remanufactured 223 has worked flawlessly. Not the first malfunction. -
Great ammo, great price
By Wolfgang
I have now used over 1000 rounds of their remanufactured ammunition in my 2 D.P.M.S. rifles and in my girls rifle without 1 problem. This is quality remanufactured ammunition at a great price. Why pay retail, when Freedom offers great quality at a great price. I am a customer for life. -
.223 55 gr reman
By mike b.
this is the most consistent,reliable ammo i have ever used,including new factory ammo. granted,i do not use match ammo,but this stuff is wonderful and cheap. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED thanks freedom ! -
Awesome ammo for the price!
By Alex
Ordered a fairly large amount of ammo and still got it in a timely manner. So far, no misfires and shoots like a dream! I was a bit skeptical at first since this was my first order from them, but everything has been perfect. Only minor disappointed was that I found a bullet with a backwards primer in the first box (none have been found since).
Definitely won't be my last purchase! -
very good reman ammo
By plus45acp
I've shot many thousands of these rounds in practice and competition through a variety of rifle+barrel combinations and it still amazes me how good they are for the price. this is well made, quality reman ammo. the bullet is actually the star here and I'm now using the Xtreme 223-55gn-FMJ for reloading. -
Reman
By Tennessee
All good with this ammo me and a few friends entered in multigun match with no problems at all. Big thumbs up -
I love it
By Nick
I shot thousands of rounds of multiple calibers of Freedom Munitions. I have never once had an issue of any kind. I know there are stories about people having issues of all sorts, but I have shot enough of their ammo to see with certainty that it is quality and safe ammo with great performance. I wouldn't shoot any ammo I was skeptical about -
Great Customer service and products
By Ash
Outstanding customer service!! Needed 500 rounds in a weeks time. Called and they said it would be a close call but if i ordered they would ship right away no lag time. I did and they picked and packed my product the same day. This was at 6pm est time when i called them. Great service ordered, packed amd shipped all on the same day. Bullets arrived today and im excited to test them out. Will do another review after my great weekend!! -
Excellent
By Phillip
Have shot roughly 400 rounds now, and it's performed flawlessly. Much prefer this to any big brand range ammo. Accuracy is good, and clean burning. Can't beat the price -
Plinking Ammo
By MidwestHunter
I ordered 1000 rounds of this stuff based on some YouTube shooters recommendations, and so far 300 rounds have gone through my AR 15 without so much as a bolt not locking back or anything. Great plinking ammo and I will do business with Freedommunitions in the near future. -
223 reman
By Jason
I've shot thousands of rounds through ar15s with a 1:8 twist and 16"-20" inch barrel with no malfunctions. It's accurate and cheap. -
GREAT DEAL
By Joseph
I've shot several hundred rounds without a single problem. It is definitely the best bang for your buck if you plan on doing a lot of practice shooting. -
Great stuff
By Colin P.
I've bought over 2,000 rounds. Never had a single ftf or fte. Burns clean enough, accurate, and reliable. Pair all that with awesome prices and shipping... Hard to beat. -
BEST TARGET AMMO OUT THERE
By Derek
This is outstanding ammo. Shopped around and found this ammo to be the most cost-effective. Great customer service and Very quick responses from employees -
REMAN .223
By bshbtr
I have fired at least a few hundred rounds of this ammo in my S&W AR-15 Sport. Zero problems period. Two of my friends have done the same with the same results. Always receive my orders quickly, no problems with products or the company. Will continue to be a customer here. -
Another Outstanding Value
By Scott
Just like the 9mm, sent my first order downrange, no issues and good accuracy. -
Great GREAT round
By James Vo
I use to use wolf Gold (brass) ammo as my pinking and range ammo. however, i could never get consistent shots with the wolf gold at 400yds with my 24" AR15 with a 1:8 twist. I tried some from Freedom munitions rem 55g this past weekend and was able to hit 10" gongs at 400yds very consistently. 29 out of 30rds hit the gong. I was very surprised at how accurate it was and how consistent it was out of my AR15. Needless to say, I will be switching over to FM from now on. -
Great ammo
By Jonathan
Just shot 500 rounds of this the past week. It is accurate. It cycles flawlessly. Zero failures. -
Great ammo at a great value
By Jeremy
Great ammunition at a great price...what else can I say? -
Fmj fun
By SaltyAlty
I bout 100 rounds of this ammo. Great price and great accuracy from what I can tell shooting indoors at 25 yards. 223 wylde barrel standing with iron sites consistently had 5 shot groups <1" didn't have anything to measure but my eyes. Good stuff will be buying more very soon! Oh no failures either -
Perfect for price
By Austin
Can't beat the price and shoots clean and accurate. I've fired 500 rounds of this stuff and I couldn't be happier. Highly recommended -
Awesome ammo
By Larry
This is the only ammo I have shot thru my AR and have had zero problems. -
223 reman ammo.
By Rick
I ran 300 rounds through my new ballistic advantage 223 wylde barrel with no failures sub moa groups at 150 yards,with reman ammo thats quality in anybodys book. Great value. -
Without a Hitch
By Andrew
I was skeptical of this ammo at first, but now I'm sure I won't find a better deal anywhere else. Fired over 200 rounds without a hitch. I will definitely buy more in the future. -
Great ammo at a awesome price
By Skinny
Bought 500 awhile back, and finally was able to shoot some. The processing time was about a month (they could work on the speed for sure) but as for the ammo, it's top notch. I've ran this through my AR, as well as my Zastava M90NP using the lowest gas setting. The m90 ran smooth on the #1 gas setting (this is true first ammo I've successfully ran on this setting). The ammo had no malfunctions and looks very clean. I'll be buying more for sure. -
Awesome ammunition!!!
By Kris
Brass was nice and shiny straight out of the box... Shot extremely well with zero issues! Couldn't believe the price either! Great deal and I can't wait to pick up some more. -
Excellent plinking ammo
By DD1371
I've personally fired many thousands of these rounds, and they're excellent for drilling paper or steel within 200 yards. I've reached out and reliably hit 12" targets at 500 yards with a 16" barrel, 1:8 twist. It's training ammo and it's damn good for that purpose. -
Great Ammo
By David
Put about 750 rounds through my AR-15 today and I must say I am very impressed with this ammo. Not one misfire or hang up. Broke down my rifle after going to the range and was pleasantly surprised at how clean the gun was. This is cheap, clean, reliable ammunition. I will be ordering from Freedom as long as i have my guns!! Thank you guys keep up the good work! -
Awesome
By T
Good quality and great price. Haven't had a misfire. Definitely would recommend to others. -
223 fmj reman
By John
I caught sale and with free shipping I couldn't load my own at the price. They run great! I'm very happy with these rounds. -
223 55GR REMAN
By derrick
Very accurate and reliable. This is great ammo !!!!! Made in the USA !!!!!!!! -
Great quality and price.
By Darrin
If you're hesitant on purchasing, don't be. I've shot many types of factory boxed new ammo and Freedom reman's function just as well. 95% of my centerfire ammo purchases are from Freedom Munitions. Their customer service, shipping, and ammo is top-notch. -
First purchase from Freedom
By Ron
This was my first purchase from Freedom. Kept hearing great things about them so decided to try them out. Only shot a few rounds and am impressed so far. -
Can't beat the price for good ammo
By JRH
I bought 1,000 on sale with free shipping. At that price it is less than I can reload 223's for, not to mention the time. Even with out the sale price the cost is great. I Shot several hundred out three different gun and they ran great. Grouped the same as my reloads and the lower priced stuff from the gun stores. -
I use this exclusively!!
By Jordan
I've shot approximately 5,000 of this in the past 18 months. I use it for EVERYTHING...I have not purchased another type of .223 in this period and I am a HUGE fan! I've had no issues with performance or reliability and I'm dead on from 25M shooting fast to 500M picking off precision targets! -
works great, very accurate
By John
in a 16 inch ar15 1:9 twist I got sub MOA (0.75 ish) with these reman rounds. not bad at all! I'm more than satisfied. -
.223 55 gr FMJ Reman
By Patrick
Wow this is such a fantastic deal. When ever I look at ammunition in the store I always compare it to your prices. You always win hands down. And the quality of your ammunition is right on. When ever I shoot other ammo I can tell the difference between a short load and a regular load. Yours is always right on. Never a miss fire, or failure to load. It goes every time. And top that off with free shipping from time to time, I can't loose. Why shoot anything else. Besides the .223 I have ordered your 9mm reman, 38 125 gr. reman, and 357 reman. Everything is right on and never a miss fire. Thanks Freedom Munitions. -
223 fmj reman
By G BABY
Functioned flawlessly. Great price. Very happy -
great ammo
By julio
Wasn't to sure about buying this ammo. I put 300 rounds through my AR with no problems, I have ordered another 400 rounds! -
Accurate and Reliable
By Darrell
I sighted in the iron sights on my S&W M&P 15 sport with the 55gr .223 Rem remanufactured ammo from Freedom Munitions. I'm not a great shooter by most accounts, however, with open sights I was able to shoot multiple 3-shot groups under 2" at 100 yards. My best 3 shot group was about 1.2" at 100 yards. No optics here. Plenty pleased with sub 1.2 moa accuracy with a 16" barrel with a carbine gas system and open sights with ammo that costs the same as cheap steel cased ammo. -
great relods
By 1972bruins
what can i say,this 223\5.56 reloads are better than most other co. new ammo. freedoms stuff just runs clean and its accurate, I typically get inch and a half groups at 100 yards -
Best all around ammo for blinking, training, and stock-up
By Tri
I do not reload and Freedom Munitions remanufactured ammo is the closest to reloading my own in term of price and quality. The website is modernized, the price is un-beatable and the quality is up there with brand new ammo. I use them for blinking, training and SHTF stock-up. Buy with confident, and buy in bulk to save on shipping and discount. My wish is Freedom Munitions would give us Active Military a constant 10% Discount like Lehigh Defense so I would then buy actual defense ammo from them as well. Thank you. -
Reliable but a bit dirty
By Sang
bought 200 rounds of this to shoot out of my aero precision ar15 with stainless barrel and NiB BCG. Very accurate and consistent. Did not have 1 malfunction. No FF, no FE, no light primer strikes. Very very few of the casings are not relevant to their performance. 4 star on quality because I've noticed looking at the spent casings that it burnt a lot dirtier than other brass rounds I've shot. Spent a bit longer cleaning as well. But for brass reloads cheaper than steel rounds, I will definitely buy more and recommend to anyone. -
Consistent
By russell
I am a reloader and I know how hard it is to make consistent rounds over and over. I purchased a hundred rounds fired 50 in 10 shot groups from 100 yards the average 10 shot group was 1 inch or under! Not a single flyer in the group. Then I fired 20 rounds in 20 seconds vertical spread of 3 inches horizontal spread of an inch and a half! I fired the last 30 rounds at 500 meters and had no problem staying with in a minute of gong.. -
223 FMJ Reman
By Ruben
With the high cost of ammo these days I'm always looking for a bargain. The problem is that most bargain brands don't shoot well or you get duds. Not with Freedom. I have never gotten a bad round or a dud and the price is great. Talk about getting your cake and eating it too...buy with confidence! -
Great Ammo
By Rick
Bought 500 rounds of .223 Reman and 300 rounds of 9mm Reman and both are great. Very clean and haven't had any issues so far. Just placed another order for the same amount. Will continue to buy more each quarter. Can't see any reason to buy anything else for plinking ammo. -
Great ammo
By Kyle
I love this ammo. It's all I shoot, and it's been 100% reliable in my AR15. This remanufactured stuff is the best there is. Accuracy is average, but then again, this stuff isn't match ammo.
Freedom Munitions prices are almost always the lowest too. Great product, great company, great results. Buy it while you can! -
223
By ldransom
I shoot a Colt LE 6920 and a Windham carbine. Both rifles like the 55 grain 223 whither new or reman. I have never had a FTE/FTF with this ammo. I believe the ammo and rifles are capable of tighter groups than my 54 year old eyes are able to sight in. Great ammo -
Awesome ammo
By Josh
I ordered 150 rounds because they were cheap and it was free shipping. Now I'll order a bunch more. Shipped fast shoots great and the bread was amazingly clean for reman ammo.
-
Great Ammo & Great Prices
By Robert
I have ordered and shot well over thousands rounds of this ammo and I could not be happier. Fires and cycles great, Not one FTF. You will not regret buying this and you will be hooked. Keep up the great work gents. -
Ammo
By Dr. Jay
I can't be more impressed by a company than I am with freedom munitions and the quality of their new ammo. I bought various caliber pistol rounds that were beautifully finished, accurate and at great prices. I'm so confident in their products, that I ordered RM 9 mm today based on previous reviews. I anticipate great results. I'll update my review after firing the remanufactured ammo. With rapid delivery, great product and price, we need to support this company! -
Awesome ammo!
By Ryan
I'm blown away at Freedoms .223 remanufactured ammo. I've gone through 750 rounds of it in my smith & Wesson M&P 15 and haven't had a single issue ejecting, FTF, etc.
It doesnt affect the internals any more than some of the new ammo ive shot before. Their casings are clean with almost no scratches. I've just ordered 850 more rounds and can't wait! They ship very fast too. -
223 AMMO
By Bernard
THIS IS SOME OF THE BEST AMMO ON THE MARKET. I'VE BEEN USING THIS AMMO FOR A WHILE AND HAVE HAD NOT ONE FTF. THE BEST REMAN 223 AMMO I HAVE FOUND. -
Great deal
By Mingothemerciless
I have put approximately 2000 rds of this ammo through my rifle without any issues. Shoots great groups, cycles every time and is cost effective. Couple the price point with Freedom Munitions free shipping specials and you can't go wrong. -
not a hiccup
By Mike
Just fired over a hundred rounds in a new built and not one issues. I can't say as much for some off the shelf brand under powered ammo. Keep it up folks you guys load some fine ammo -
My favorite source for ammo
By Paul H.
I got my first box of remanufactured .223 during a free shipping promotion sometime during the holidays. I was blown away! The ammo looks perfect! I was expecting scratches, dents, or discoloration of the brass. The ammo looks flawless. I've gone total fanboy about freedom munitions and bought quite a bit of ammo. F.M. Even tossed in a sticker with one of my orders. That sticker is now prominently displayed on my truck. Every round fires. I've not had one misfire. -
works for me!
By PM
I've been shooting this stuff for the past few months--several hundred rounds so far with no problems thru my Bushmaster XM-15 E2S!
