Description
Hornady’s Frontier line exists to give shooters a reliable, cost-effective option for high-volume practice and training without stepping away from Hornady-built projectiles. This load pairs a 105-grain Full Metal Jacket bullet with the 6mm ARC cartridge, a combination well-suited to semi-automatic platform training where consistent feeding and predictable terminal behavior matter more than expansion. The FMJ construction means the bullet retains its shape through the bore and on impact, which keeps costs down and makes this a natural choice for range work, drills, and volume shooting sessions where premium hunting or match projectiles would be wasted.
The 6mm ARC was designed from the ground up for the AR-15 platform, and a 105-grain projectile sits at the heavier end of what the cartridge handles well, offering a ballistic coefficient that resists wind drift better than lighter 6mm offerings at typical training distances. Muzzle velocity comes in at 2,700 feet per second, which puts energy figures in a range that makes this round useful beyond simple paper punching — it fits the application window for varmint work and small to medium game where a non-expanding FMJ is appropriate.
Brass cases and military-grade Boxer primers mean spent cases are reloadable, reducing long-term cost for handloaders who want to stretch this ammunition further. Consistent loading and quality control across the Frontier line are built around the same standards Hornady applies to its other product lines, so shooters get uniform ignition and repeatable performance from round to round. Each box contains 20 rounds.
