Description
The Lehigh Defense 223 Rem 62gr Controlled Chaos load is built for shooters who want more from their .223 Remington than typical factory ammunition delivers. Lehigh Defense loads a 62 grain Controlled Chaos solid copper fragmenting to a rated 2800 feet per second, producing about 1080 foot-pounds of energy. Lehigh Defense Controlled Chaos bullets are machined from solid copper so the nose breaks into several fragments on impact while the base continues on a straight path for deep penetration. The combination creates a wide wound cavity and dependable penetration for home defense and varmint or hog hunting.

Buying ammunition by the box from the same production lot keeps velocity and point of impact consistent from one range trip to the next. Keep a record of the load you carry, check your ammunition for dents or loose bullets from time to time, and rotate your carry rounds so the ones in your firearm stay fresh. These simple habits help you get the full performance Lehigh Defense builds into every cartridge.
Before you trust any new load, fire enough rounds through your firearm to confirm it feeds, fires and ejects reliably and that the point of impact matches your sights. Full-power loads produce more recoil and muzzle blast than typical range ammo, so practice with the Lehigh Defense 223 Rem 62gr Controlled Chaos until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.
The .223 Remington was introduced in 1964 and is closely related to the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge used in the AR-15 family of rifles. It is one of the most popular rifle cartridges in America for target shooting, training and varmint hunting, thanks to its mild recoil, flat trajectory and the huge variety of rifles chambered for it.
