The Hornady V-MAX 22 caliber (.224) 35 grain flat base bullets deliver the explosive terminal performance varmint hunters and precision shooters demand. Built on decades of Hornady's reloading expertise, these match-grade bullets combine a polymer tip with a swaged lead core and aerodynamic profile to produce consistent, dramatic expansion and fragmentation across a wide velocity range—even at impact speeds as low as 1600 fps. Whether you're handloading for prairie dogs, coyotes, or competitive varmint shooting, the V-MAX's proven design gives you the accuracy and lethality to make clean, confident shots at distance.
The key to the V-MAX's terminal effect is its hollow polymer tip, engineered with a precision cavity between the shaft and bullet body. On impact, the hard tip shaft accelerates into the swaged core, generating the energy needed for violent, consistent fragmentation. This design works reliably across varying distances and velocities—a crucial advantage when hunting variable conditions or unknown ranges. The flat base profile adds in-flight stability and maximizes bearing surface contact, supporting long-range shooting where ballistics count.
Hornady's AMP bullet jacket is concentrically formed for match-grade consistency, ensuring the tight shot groups serious reloaders expect. The sharp, pointed polymer tip combines with the streamlined profile to deliver a high ballistic coefficient, flattening your trajectory and improving hold-over accuracy at extended ranges. Each box contains 100 projectiles, giving you plenty to load and shoot.

Frequently Asked Questions
What rifles can I use these 22 caliber bullets in?
These .224 caliber bullets are designed for rifles chambered in 22-250 Remington, 220 Swift, 22 Hornet, and other cartridges that accept .224 diameter projectiles. Always verify your specific rifle's chamber and consult your reloading manual for compatibility and load data.
Will the V-MAX work at long range?
Yes. The high ballistic coefficient, aerodynamic profile, and flat base design support consistent performance at extended distances, making these bullets suitable for long-range varmint shooting where trajectory and wind drift matter.
What impact velocities does this bullet require?
The V-MAX is engineered to expand and fragment reliably even at velocities as low as 1600 fps, though it delivers dramatic terminal performance across a wide velocity range depending on distance and game size.
Is this a complete round or just the bullet?
This is a box of 100 projectiles only—the bullets themselves for handloading. You will need to source cases, primers, and powder separately and follow a reloading manual for safe load development.
