Is your chamber open to foreign-made ammunition? If so, then you’ll definitely want to “Czech out” Patriot Sports ammo! These .223 Rem cartridges are made by STV Technology, s.r.o. and distributed by Patriot Sports (its Czech manufacturer’s wholly owned subsidiary in Topeka, KS). It’s great cheap stuff for target shooting!

This ammo is loaded to C.I.P. specs, although that is by no means indication that it won’t feed, fire and cycle reliably in your rifle. The bullet’s core is made of lead-tin alloy. Its jacket is made of copper-zinc alloy. This is only to point out that the bullet cannot attract a magnet. Neither can its brass case, which is reloadable thanks to its small rifle Boxer primer (confirmed noncorrosive).

Each round’s temperature-stable double base smokeless powder generates a chamber pressure of around 50,760 psi, which is significantly lower than the SAAMI ceiling of 55,000 psi. The manufacturer promises groups of 70mm (2.76”) at a distance of 100 meters (109 yards)!
