Performance & Ballistics
The DoubleTap .223 Remington 62 Grain Solid Copper Hollow Point is loaded to maximize velocity and energy transfer from both standard-length and short-barreled AR-platform rifles. The 62-grain solid copper bullet is specifically designed to expand rapidly upon impact while retaining nearly 100% of its original weight, ensuring deep and consistent penetration through soft tissue and intermediate barriers alike.
Unlike traditional jacketed hollow points that can fragment or shed their jackets during penetration, the monolithic copper construction of this SC-HP projectile maintains structural integrity across a wide range of impact velocities. This makes it particularly effective when engaging targets through common barriers such as auto glass, drywall, and light sheet metal — a critical advantage for law enforcement and home defense applications.
DoubleTap is known for loading their ammunition to true advertised velocities, and the Colt Defense line is no exception. Every round is loaded with premium components including match-grade brass cases and carefully selected propellants to ensure consistent chamber pressures and shot-to-shot accuracy.
Intended Use
The DoubleTap Colt Defense .223 Remington 62 Grain SC-HP is an ideal choice for a wide range of defensive and tactical applications:
- Home Defense: The controlled expansion and deep penetration of the solid copper hollow point make this round exceptionally effective for protecting your home and family. The lead-free construction also reduces airborne contaminants in enclosed spaces.
- Duty & Law Enforcement: Designed in collaboration with the Colt Defense brand, this ammunition meets the demanding performance standards required by professional operators who rely on barrier-blind terminal performance.
- Personal Defense Rifle (PDR): Whether loaded in a full-size AR-15 or a compact pistol-caliber platform chambered in .223 Remington, this round delivers reliable feeding and consistent ballistic performance.
- Hunting: The 62-grain solid copper projectile is also effective for varmint and predator hunting, delivering humane and efficient terminal performance on medium-sized game.
The lead-free solid copper construction also makes this DoubleTap .223 Remington 62 Grain Solid Copper Hollow Point ammunition compliant in jurisdictions that restrict lead-based projectiles, offering an environmentally responsible option without sacrificing performance.
