Building accurate, consistent loads for your .22-caliber rifle starts with quality components, and the Hornady 22 Caliber (.224) 50 Grain SX Spire Point Bullets deliver the precision reloaders need. These 100-count boxes give you the spire-point profile and soft-point construction that balance flight stability with reliable terminal performance across the hunting and target-shooting spectrum.

The SX designation signals Hornady's match-grade jacket design, engineered for uniform expansion and dependable accuracy at typical .22 rifle velocities. Whether you're handloading for varmint hunting, predator control, or developing loads for your rimfire or centerfire .22 platform, this bullet weight and construction offer a proven platform for precision work. The streamlined spire-point geometry supports a clean trajectory without excessive drop across moderate distances.

The 50-grain mass sits in the sweet spot for .22 centerfire and varmint-class cartridges, giving you flexibility in powder charge and velocity tuning to match your barrel and intended use.

Yes. The 50-grain spire-point soft-point construction is well-suited for varmint hunting and predator control applications where consistent expansion and reliable terminal performance are needed.

What does match-grade jacket mean?

Match-grade jacket design refers to Hornady's process for maintaining tight tolerances in jacket thickness and concentricity, which contributes to uniform bullet performance and improved accuracy across a batch of ammunition.

How many rounds will I get from one box?

Each box contains 100 individual bullets, so one box will yield 100 loaded rounds once you complete the reloading process with your chosen cases, primers, and powder.
