Lehigh Defense Controlled Chaos 223 Rem 62gr Ammo 50rd Box

The Lehigh Defense Controlled Chaos 223 Remington delivers devastating terminal performance through its unique fragmenting design that creates multiple wound channels while maintaining deep penetration. This 62-grain ammunition transforms standard AR-15 platforms into highly effective tools for both tactical applications and hunting medium game.

What Makes This Different

Controlled Chaos technology features a solid copper construction with pre-stressed fracture points that cause the front portion to fragment into multiple petals upon impact, while the base continues penetrating as a solid projectile. This dual-action design creates significantly more tissue damage than traditional hollow points or FMJ rounds. Independent testing shows consistent expansion across various barrier materials including drywall, plywood, and automotive glass.

Key Features

• Solid copper construction eliminates lead exposure concerns
• Pre-stressed fracture design creates 3-4 separate wound channels
• 62-grain weight optimized for 1:7 and 1:8 twist rate barrels
• Consistent 2,950 fps muzzle velocity from 20-inch barrels
• Compatible with all 223 Remington and 5.56x45mm NATO chambers
• Temperature-stable powder maintains velocity across weather conditions
• Nickel-plated brass cases for reliable extraction and corrosion resistance

Field testing demonstrates exceptional accuracy with sub-MOA groups achievable from quality bolt-action rifles and precision AR platforms. The controlled fragmentation pattern remains consistent through intermediate barriers while maintaining sufficient penetration for effective terminal performance. Law enforcement agencies report reliable function through various AR-15 configurations including carbine-length gas systems and different buffer weights.
