The Hornady V-MAX 20 Cal 32 Gr Flat Base Bullets are purpose-built rounds for varmint hunters and precision reloaders who demand explosive terminal performance and reliable accuracy across a wide range of hunting distances. These .204 diameter bullets combine Hornady's match-grade engineering with a polymer-tip design that delivers dramatic expansion and fragmentation—even at lower impact velocities—making them a proven choice for prairie dogs, coyotes, and small game where clean, quick kills matter.
What sets V-MAX ammunition apart is the engineering inside: a hard polymer tip sitting above a hollow cavity that builds energy on impact before driving into a swaged lead core. This design creates violent fragmentation of both core and jacket, delivering the explosive wound channel varmint hunters expect. The streamlined, aerodynamic profile keeps bullets stable in flight and maintains velocity downrange, while the flat base design provides the in-flight stability serious long-range shooters demand. Hornady's match-grade concentricity in the AMP bullet jacket means shot-to-shot consistency whether you're handloading for a .204 Ruger or another compatible cartridge.
At 32 grains, these are light, fast rounds that excel in medium-range varmint work where flat trajectory and accuracy trump penetration. The combination of a high ballistic coefficient and maximum bearing surface makes them reliable performers from 50 yards to extended distances, with consistent expansion across a practical velocity window. Whether you're handloading ammunition for a varmint rifle or restocking your reloading bench, Hornady V-MAX bullets earn their reputation through field-tested results.

Frequently Asked Questions
What cartridges are these bullets compatible with?
The .204 diameter bullets are designed for rifles chambered in .204 Ruger and similar cartridges that accept .204 projectiles. Always verify cartridge compatibility before reloading.
At what impact velocities will V-MAX bullets expand reliably?
Hornady V-MAX bullets are engineered to expand reliably even at impact velocities as low as 1600 fps, making them effective across a wide practical hunting range.
What kind of game are these bullets designed for?
These are specialized varmint bullets designed for prairie dogs, coyotes, and small game where explosive expansion and dramatic fragmentation are priorities. They are not suitable for larger game or hunting applications requiring deep penetration.
Do these bullets come with reloading data?
These are component bullets for hand reloading. You'll need to consult reloading manuals or Hornady load data for the specific cartridge and powder combination you're using.
