Hornady 22 Cal 60gr SP

The Hornady 22 Cal 60gr SP is a high-quality bullet component engineered for reloaders seeking dependable performance across a variety of .22 caliber rifle platforms. Featuring a traditional soft point (SP) design, this projectile offers controlled expansion and reliable terminal performance, making it an excellent choice for varmint hunting, predator control, and medium game shooting. With a bullet diameter of .224″, it is compatible with a wide range of popular cartridges including .223 Rem, 22-250 Rem, and 222 Remington.

Weighing 60gr, this Hornady bullet offers a balance between velocity and sectional density, supporting flat trajectories and stable in-flight behavior. The soft point construction is ideal for applications where rapid but controlled expansion is desired, delivering effective energy transfer while maintaining sufficient penetration. This makes the Hornady 22 Cal 60gr SP especially well-suited for game such as coyotes and foxes, as well as high-volume range shooting where accuracy and repeatability matter.

Hornady’s attention to concentricity, jacket thickness, and core uniformity ensures consistent ballistic coefficients and dependable accuracy from shot to shot. These bullets are manufactured under strict tolerances, offering handloaders the quality control needed to develop precise and consistent ammunition for both bolt-action and semi-automatic rifles. Whether loaded for hunting or training, the 60gr SP provides consistent performance across standard barrel twist rates.

The bullet’s flat-base design and tapered ogive contribute to smooth feeding and reliable alignment during seating. This allows for easy integration into a wide range of case configurations, particularly in .223 Rem-based platforms where magazine length and overall cartridge length must be carefully managed. With proper load development, reloaders can expect excellent sub-MOA potential at practical hunting ranges.

Hornady 22 Cal 60gr SP bullets are trusted by reloaders for their accuracy, reliability, and effectiveness in the field. Whether you’re developing a dedicated varmint round or a general-purpose .22 caliber load, these soft point projectiles provide the consistency and controlled expansion needed for confident shooting in diverse conditions.
