About Hornady Frontier 5.56
Hornady's Frontier line includes 55gr and 62gr full metal jacket (FMJ) configurations and a 68gr boat-tail hollow point (BTHP) Match configuration. These are different loads, not merely different package quantities. Their designations do not establish guaranteed firearm performance.
Configuration Guide
FR200 and FR2015 contain 55gr FMJ loads in different package counts. FR260 and FR2615 contain 62gr FMJ loads; FR310 contains a 68gr BTHP Match load. Manufacturer guidance governs firearm compatibility. Bullet weight alone does not establish a universal barrel-twist requirement or an accuracy ranking.
How It Compares
Frontier, PMC X-TAC, and Federal American Eagle are distinct product lines. Current listing prices and round counts determine ammunition cost per round. Known shipping costs are needed for a delivered comparison. A brand or package size does not establish which listing costs less.
Comparing listings
A retailer listing may combine multiple manufacturer packages. Its actual round count supplies the cost-per-round divisor; a larger package does not necessarily cost less per round. Stock and shipping terms can change. A .223/5.56 comparison family is not a chamber-compatibility assurance.
