223 REM 53 GR. TAP PATROL®
NO. 80295  | 
Application:  Entry, Patrol  |  Meets FBI Protocol*
TAP Patrol® is specifically designed to provide consistent and 
reliable performance through the FBI protocol when fired 
with 14.5" to 16" barreled 1:7 to 1:9" twist patrol rifles. The 
lead free bullet features a flat polymer tip, which allows it 
to provide “barrier blind” performance ensuring consistent 
penetration depths.  The flat tip design ensures the bullet 
will not plug with material from the barriers and ensures 
feeding through the wide variety of patrol rifle platforms. 
TAP Patrol® ammunition is loaded with temperature stable, 
low flash propellant designed to work when you do.

223 REM 55 GR. TAP URBAN®
NO. 83276
Application:  Entry
The Hornady® 223 Rem 55 gr. TAP Urban® is the 
preferred choice for use in SBRs, carbines, and rifles 
when the probability for barrier penetration is low. Rapid 
expansion provides dramatic wound cavities, massive 
fragmentation, and prevents over penetration on non-
barrier engagements. These factors make this bullet a 
great choice when collateral risk is high.
