I know a lot of competitors who reload and use the 73 grain .223 Rem Berger Bullets for windy conditions when they really want to be sure to hit distant targets with Alpha hits, or a hit at all. Now there are few more options from Berger with their new .223 Remington 73 Grain Boat Tail Target and the 77 Grain OTM Tactical cartridges.

Here’s the product announcement:

Mesa, AZ – Berger is excited to expand their successful, match grade ammunition line with the addition of .223 Remington, 73 Grain Boat Tail Target Ammunition and .223 Remington, 77 Gain OTM Tactical Ammunition.

Berger Ammunition, proven successful in PRS, NRL, Fullbore, and other long range competitive shooting disciplines, is excited to announce the addition of 223 Remington cartridges to their growing ammunition offering.

223 Remington 73 Grain Boat Tail Target

Berger’s .223 Remington, 73 Grain Boat Tail (BT) Target offering provides both bolt-gun and gas-gun operators a premium round that outperforms all others in 1:7”, 1:8”, and 1:9” rifle twist applications. The 73 Grain BT Target projectile is known in competitive shooting and Mil/LE circles as the “test-bullet” for AR platforms.

Period.” Function tested and competition proven, the Berger .223 Remington, 73 Grain BT Target is the target round to beat.
