Norma 5.56 x 45 is a popular and versatile caliber that is used by militaries and law enforcement agencies around the world. The range of the Norma 5.56 x 45 cartridge is usually rated as 600 meters maximum effective range. This is the approximate maximum shooting distance that an experienced shooter can expect to be able to hit a target accurately.

For training purposes, the optimal range for the 5.56 x 45 is between zero and 200 meters. This range provides shooters with the opportunity to practice basic firearms techniques including sight alignment, trigger control, and accuracy. Additionally, a smaller range provides a safe environment to ensure the safety of all shooters present and allows for the safe use of firearms.

Quality assurance practices ensure each round meets the quality required for use in NATO-approved weapons. The rounds are produced using stringent MFS (Metalite Formed Solid) technology. This technology eliminates the disconnect between the projectile and case, ensuring consistent and reliable performance.

Thanks to the MFS technology, the projectile is uniform and consistent in shape, weight, and consistency, so there is minimal difference between the performance of each bullet.

The optimized bullet trajectory ensures accuracy out to 400 yards, while the aerodynamic design improves stability at longer distances. Additionally, the “slow burning” gunpowder helps to reduce recoil, making the Norma 5.56 x 45 a great ammo choice for both novice and experienced shooters.

This ensures that the copper jacket remains intact, eliminating premature bullet failure and jamming. Additionally, the AR-15 platform can be susceptible to pressure problems, especially when using ammunition with higher pressures. Thanks to Norma’s quality assurance products, each round must pass strict pressure testing standards to guarantee reliability and safety.

Finally, the Norma 5.56 x 45 round has seen recent success in competitive shooting.

In addition, the non-corrosive copper jacket eliminates the need for frequent cleaning and helps to reduce pressure problems.
