Description
This is a no-frills hunting round that punches above its weight. The 55-grain pointed soft point bullet cuts a flat trajectory and hits with real authority at typical hunting ranges. Built with the same tight tolerances and quality components Remington is known for, each round feeds clean and shoots where you aim.
What Makes This High Performance Load Different
The pointed soft point profile gives you the best of both worlds: expansion on impact for clean knockdown, plus a ballistic shape that maintains velocity downrange better than conventional soft points. At 3240 fps, this load generates 1282 foot-pounds of energy, enough to anchor coyotes and predators in their tracks. The brass cases are reloadable if you're into handloading, which means you're not throwing money away with every trigger pull.
Built for Field Use
Remington built this line for people who actually hunt, not for bench rest competition. The ammunition is assembled with premium components and quality control standards tight enough to make competitors jealous. You get consistent muzzle velocities and reliable ignition shot after shot. Whether you're running this through an AR platform or a bolt gun, it performs the same way every time.
This is the ammunition to grab when you want solid, dependable performance from a name you've trusted for over two centuries. Twenty rounds per box means you're stocked up without breaking the bank.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this Remington PSP work in both AR-15s and bolt action rifles?
Yes. The .223 Remington 55gr PSP is compatible with any rifle chambered in .223 Remington or 5.56 NATO. It feeds reliably in modern ARs and traditional bolt guns alike. The case dimensions and ammunition specifications are designed for safe use in both platform types.
How does the pointed soft point bullet perform on game?
The PSP design combines controlled expansion with extended range capability. The soft point expands on impact to create a larger wound channel, while the pointed profile maintains velocity downrange. This makes it effective on varmints like coyotes, prairie dogs, and small game where clean, quick kills matter.
Can I reload the brass cases from this ammunition?
Yes. Remington's High Performance brass is known for quality and reloadability. The cases feature standard boxer primers and are fully reloadable with standard equipment. Many reloaders prefer Remington brass for its consistency and durability across multiple reload cycles.
What's the difference between this and cheaper .223 ammunition?
This High Performance load prioritizes consistency and component quality. You get tighter manufacturing tolerances, premium brass, and reliable velocities shot to shot. That consistency translates to better accuracy and more dependable performance when it counts in the field.
