223 Rem – 55 gr GameKing HP – Federal LE TRU (T223E) – 500 Rounds

Federal’s LE Tactical TRU line was built for law enforcement patrol rifles, and the T223E pairs it with Sierra’s accurate GameKing bullet. This listing is Federal LE Tactical TRU 223 Remington 55 grain Sierra GameKing hollow point boat tail ammo, MPN T223E, sold as a 500 round case.

Federal lists this load at 3,220 fps with 1,266 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The Sierra GameKing is a hunting bullet with a hollow point and boat tail. The boat tail improves ballistic coefficient and long-range accuracy, and the hollow point is designed to expand and fragment on soft targets. That combination makes the T223E popular for varmint and predator hunting, including coyotes and hogs at moderate range, as well as for patrol rifle use where a soft-target bullet is preferred over FMJ. The 55 grain weight stabilizes in nearly every AR-15 twist rate.

This ammunition fits rifles chambered in 223 Remington, 5.56 NATO, or 223 Wylde, including AR-15 patrol rifles and carbines, the Ruger Mini-14 and American Ranch, Smith and Wesson M&P15, Sig M400, Colt LE6920, Daniel Defense, and bolt actions chambered in 223. A common question is whether this load is good for deer. Some states allow 223 for deer, but a 55 grain bullet designed for rapid expansion is better matched to varmints and predators; choose a heavier controlled-expansion bullet for deer. Another common question is why TRU is called a law enforcement load. Federal developed it for agency patrol rifles, but it is legal for civilian sale.

Federal T223E is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA. Each round uses a reloadable brass case with a boxer primer and is non-corrosive. This case comes in factory packaging as 25 boxes of 20 rounds for a total of 500 rounds of 223 Rem 55 grain GameKing HPBT. Buying by the case keeps you on one production lot so your zero holds from box to box.
