Hornady Manufacturing of Grand Island, Nebraska, has re-launched its Frontier Cartridge brand with a very exciting line of .223 Rem. and 5.56 NATO ammunition. Through an agreement with Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, the renowned government-owned facility responsible for producing the bulk of U.S. military small arms ammunition, Hornady bullets are being loaded into Lake City brass cases with military-grade boxer primers and propellants. The result is reliable cartridges for AR-style platforms, topped with Hornady-manufactured bullets and offered at competitive prices.
