Hornady Superformance Varmint V-Max Rifle Ammunition .243 WSSM 75gr PT 3800 fps 20/ct

The Hornady Superformance Varmint V-Max rifle ammunition in .243 WSSM is built for shooters who demand flat-shooting, hard-hitting loads for predator and varmint hunting. This ammunition pairs Hornady's Superformance propellant with the proven V-Max bullet design, delivering 3800 fps from the .243 WSSM platform. The polymer-tipped V-Max round is engineered for rapid fragmentation on impact, making it effective on smaller game and varmints at extended ranges. Each box contains 20 cartridges, ready to load and shoot.

What sets Superformance Varmint apart is velocity that runs 100 to 200 fps faster than conventional loads—without sacrificing safety or reliability in any action type, including semi-automatics. That extra speed translates to a flatter trajectory, reduced wind drift, and extended effective range, all while maintaining the match-grade accuracy varmint hunters expect. Whether you're working prairie dogs, coyotes, or other varmint species, the combination of velocity, bullet design, and consistent powder charge means tighter groups and more decisive results downrange.

The V-Max bullet itself is one of Hornady's most refined varmint projectiles. The polymer tip initiates expansion reliably, while the boat-tail design and thin jacket ensure consistent, rapid fragmentation. This is precision ammunition engineered by hunters, for hunters—not marketing hype. Superformance Varmint ammunition is safe to shoot in any rifle chambered in .243 WSSM, regardless of action type or barrel length.
