Order .223 REM/5.56 NATO online from trusted brands like Aguila, Armscor, Barnes, and Buffalo Bore. Bear Arms stocks dependable rifle ammo that fits range time, hunting seasons, and defensive needs. AR rifles often run best with consistent pressure and the right bullet weight, and many bolt guns pair nicely with tighter-tolerance loads. Round out your kit with rifles, rifle magazines, and scopes, sights & optics. Match the load to your chamber marking, then shop online or buy at the counter with confidence.
Bear Arms is based in El Dorado Springs and serves Cedar Springs, Willowville, Handley, and Nevada, Missouri. Before you make a purchase, it’s important to consider your rifle’s chamber marking, then the purpose.
Use these quick checks to match the right load to your rifle setup:
Match the load to the chamber stamp on the barrel. A 5.56 NATO chamber typically accepts .223 Rem and 5.56 NATO, yet a .223 Rem chamber calls for .223 Rem.
Pick bullet style based on the job. FMJ fits training, match loads suit tighter groups, and hunting bullets focus on terminal performance.
Plan the support gear that keeps a .223 REM/5.56 NATO rifle running. Start with rifles, add rifle magazines, then dial in your sight picture with gun scopes.
Local pickup is available at our El Dorado Springs, Missouri shop when the option appears at checkout. Online orders follow federal rules plus any state or local limits tied to your shipping address. Age and ID requirements apply to ammunition purchases.
A .223 Rem-marked chamber should use .223 Rem. A 5.56 NATO-marked chamber usually runs both.
Many rifles do well with 55-grain loads for practice. Heavier options can shine with the right twist rate.
FMJ loads offer reliable feeding and predictable recoil. Try a training-oriented load like Armscor 50174 Precision M193 5.56x45mmNATO 55gr Full Metal Jacket 20 Per Box/50 Case when it fits your chamber marking.
