Nope different projectiles but I’d rather order your find!

Nope different projectiles

Your right, I see the 2 grain difference now.

Is there that much of a performance difference to justify $.80 vs $1.65 per round?

Also found this, it's also 62 grain like the one in your link. It's also just $0.80 per round.

Probably not much difference but the more expensive one is the FBI equivalent load.

The lighter 62 gr will be a little faster And probably expand more

Federal Premium Law Enforcement Tactical Ammunition 223 Remington 62 Grain Bonded Soft Point

Same projectile but this is 223 and safe for 556-223 barrels

The original listing is a 62 gr 5.56 which is higher pressure and not usable in 223/556 barrels

At that weight, it's splitting hairs at a micro level. Expansion is debatable as well when both are targeted for law enforcement & should preform to the same standard.

I don't know about you, but paying twice the price to get slightly faster velocity doesn't seem like it's worth the premium.
