    Remington UMC 55gr vs 45gr

    I went to the Walmart off of Aero Dr. last night and decided to pick up a couple boxes of .223. They had 55gr for $7.56 and 45gr for $10.56. Why would the 45gr be more expensive? Both were identical except for the gr.

    Were they both FMJ? The 55-gr is standard for that load, the 45-gr could be frangible?
