Hornady 22 Cal 60gr V-MAX (Bulk / OEM)

Hornady 22 Cal 60gr V-MAX

The Hornady 22 Cal 60gr V-MAX is a purpose-built varmint bullet engineered for exceptional accuracy, explosive terminal performance, and flat trajectories. Whether you’re targeting prairie dogs, coyotes, or other small game at extended distances, this bullet delivers devastating results that make it a favorite among varmint hunters and precision reloaders. With a polymer tip, precision AMP^® jacket, and streamlined profile, the 60gr V-MAX is optimized for superior flight characteristics and rapid fragmentation on impact.

This bullet’s polymer tip initiates explosive expansion by driving energy into the core through a hollow cavity just behind the tip. This energy transfer causes violent fragmentation, even at relatively low velocities, as low as 1600 fps. That means effective terminal performance across a wide range of platforms, including .223 Remington and 22-250 Remington. The combination of speed, accuracy, and destructive expansion makes it ideal for high-volume varmint shooting and long-range work.

At the heart of the V-MAX’s precision is Hornady’s AMP^® (Advanced Manufacturing Process) jacket. The AMP jacket features near-zero wall thickness variation and perfect concentricity, ensuring that every shot flies true and delivers the same terminal effect. The aerodynamic design also features either a boattail or flatbase depending on caliber, offering unmatched in-flight stability and retained velocity downrange.

The swaged lead core is formed precisely around the base of the tip, providing uniform balance and promoting fragmentation on impact. If you’re a varmint hunter seeking accuracy and power in every shot, the Hornady 22 Cal 60gr V-MAX is an outstanding choice—and it’s also available in bulk bullets packaging, perfect for reloaders who need quantity without sacrificing quality.

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.
