Hornady V-Max 22 Cal .224 50 gr Varmint Rifle Bullets - 100/Box

The Hornady V-Max is a high-performance 22 Caliber (.224") reloading bullet weighing 50 grains and built specifically for varmint and small-game hunting. Part of Hornady's V-Max varmint line, this projectile pairs a signature red polymer tip with a precision-swaged lead core wrapped in a match-grade copper (gilding metal) jacket to deliver flat trajectories, repeatable accuracy, and explosive fragmentation on impact.

The polymer tip is engineered to initiate rapid, reliable expansion at velocities as low as 1600 fps, while the carefully designed core and jacket combination produces the dramatic fragmentation varmint hunters rely on for clean, ethical harvests. Across its effective velocity window of roughly 2000 to 4200 fps, the V-Max holds tight groups and maintains a consistent ballistic coefficient of .242 with a sectional density of .142.

This bullet is purpose-built for varmint hunting and is a popular choice for handloaders chasing coyotes, prairie dogs, groundhogs, and other small game. Each box contains 100 bullets, with 40 boxes per case.
