    Default Federal AE 223 Different Types

    Hey I have been looking for deals on Ammo prices online and have come across AMERICAN EAGLE 223 FMJ-BT AE223BL and was wondering what the differences is in the AE223 BL compared to the AE223 J that I saw at Cabela's

    I checked the company site but only foudn 223 and 223 G(50Gr Jacketed HP)... No mention of BL or J.

    Any thoughts?

    BTW, The reason I am asking is that Trop Gun has a Sale 5/1-5/17...$35/100rd AE223BL and plan on stocking up if it is good stuff.

    I'm guessing the size of the box is the difference. One is a box of 20 and one is a box of 100.

    I've shot the 50gr varmint tips out of a 7-1 twist barrel and they hit where they were supposed to. I haven't shot any further than 70 yards. It was the only .223 I could find for a while.

    Yeah usually the difference is the packaging.
