Rifles Descriptions
223 Rem - 55 Grain BlitzKing - Sierra Prairie Enemy - 200 Rounds
You already strike fear into the hearts of varmints wherever you roam. But if they knew you also had Sierra’s Prairie Enemy 223 Rem ammo in your magazine, they might actually feel at peace. They would have no choice but to accept the inevitable. Sierra christened this round with their 55 grain BlitzKing. They could easily bill it as a match bullet, as the BlitzKing is fantastically accurate with its concentric jacket, voidless and uniform lead core, and ballistically efficient boat tail. With its 3,215 fps muzzle velocity, this round’s BlitzKing serves up a G7 ballistic coefficient in the neighborhood of 0.127. But the BlitzKing has a secret weapon: its sharp acetyl resin tip. Not only does this improve the BlitzKing’s accuracy even further, but it also facilitates explosive terminal fragmentation as it splits apart the thin-walled jacket and then core beneath it. If the BlitzKing eliminated varmints any more effectively, it would leave no evidence behind that they had ever existed at all. Sierra loads their BlitzKings into new production brass cases. The cases are forged according to meticulous tolerances, ensuring they reliably weave in and out of a semi-auto’s chamber. Each round receives the same primer and propellant charge to promote in-flight ballistics that beg comparison to the internal workings of a Swiss watch.
Bushmaster Gas Piston 90294
The Bushmaster Gas Piston System Rifles bring new levels of reliability to the “AR” type rifle platform by eliminating carbon build up, gas leaks and heat within the Upper Receiver. The Gas Piston System operates by tapping gas pressure off the barrel much like the systems found on AK-47s and FALs * Functions with a wider range of ammunition - less gas pressure - lower cyclic rate * Offers improved reliability and control - with cleaner operation and reduced recoil * Keeps carbon build up and powder residue from reaching - and fouling the Upper Receiver and Bolt Carrier * A Detented Plug in the Gas Block allows easy cleaning of the Systems’ Hard Chrome Plated Piston
