Hornady 22 Cal 35gr V-MAX

The Hornady 22 Cal 35gr V-MAX is a specialized varmint bullet designed for precision shooting and explosive terminal effects. With its streamlined shape and polymer tip, this .224″ diameter projectile delivers flat trajectories and impressive downrange performance, even at lower velocities. Whether you’re targeting coyotes, prairie dogs, or other small game, this bullet provides the speed and expansion necessary for clean, humane hits.

A match-grade AMP jacket ensures superior concentricity, contributing to consistent accuracy and stability in flight. Even at velocities as low as 1600 fps, this bullet delivers reliable expansion, making it suitable for a variety of varmint rifle platforms and reloading recipes.

POLYMER TIP
The secret to the explosive terminal performance of the V-MAX is a hollow cavity resting between the tip’s shaft and the body of the bullet. Upon impact, the hard shaft builds up speed and energy before driving into the core, causing the entire package to rapidly expand to violent fragmentation, even at low terminal velocities.

HIGHER BALLISTIC COEFFICIENT
Hornady combines the sharp, pointed polymer tip with the most aerodynamic profile for a high ballistic coefficient. The V-MAX profile also provides the maximum bearing surface for added in-flight stability.

SWAGED LEAD CORE
The swaging process allows precise formation of the core up and around the tip, with a cavity under the tip’s stem. This allows the tip to build energy before smashing into the core, causing dramatic fragmentation of the core and jacket.

PRECISE BOATTAIL & FLATBASE DESIGNS
Utilizing the proper base design provides incredible in-flight stability for long-range shooting.
