Description

Acri Ammunition 5.56×45mm NATO 55gr – High Velocity

The Acri Ammunition 5.56×45mm NATO 55 Grain cartridge is a lightweight, high-velocity round designed for reliable performance, flat trajectory, and versatility across military, law enforcement, and civilian applications. As one of the most common and time-tested bullet weights in the 5.56 NATO platform, the 55gr load remains a favorite for training, target shooting, varmint hunting, and defensive use.

The 55-grain projectile delivers high muzzle velocity—typically in the 3,000–3,250 FPS range, depending on barrel length and specific configuration—resulting in a flat trajectory and fast target engagement at short to medium distances. With muzzle energy around 1,235–1,300 ft-lbs, this load offers effective energy transfer while maintaining manageable recoil, allowing for rapid follow-up shots.

Acri Ammunition’s 5.56×45 55gr offerings are commonly available in FMJ or FMJ Boat Tail configurations, making them ideal for range training and high-volume shooting. Specialty variations may also include soft point or polymer-tipped bullets for hunting and varmint control, depending on application needs.
