HSM Varmint V-MAX Rifle Ammunition .22 Hornet 35gr PT 2975 fps 50/ct

The HSM Varmint V-MAX rifle ammunition in .22 Hornet is purpose-built for varmint hunters and predator callers who need reliable, accurate loads in a compact, efficient cartridge. This .22 Hornet load pairs a 35-grain Pointed Soft Point (PT) bullet with a 2975 fps muzzle velocity, delivering the velocity and energy needed for clean, ethical takes on coyotes, foxes, prairie dogs, and other varmints across the country. Each box contains 50 rounds, giving you solid volume for range work, load development, or extended hunting trips without breaking the bank.

The .22 Hornet has loyal followers in varmint circles—it's quieter and lighter-recoiling than the .223 Rem, easier on barrels, and makes minimal noise pollution, which matters when you're hunting property with neighbors nearby. HSM's Varmint V-MAX ammunition takes full advantage of that classic cartridge's efficiency. The 35-grain bullet weight is right-sized for the case capacity and designed to expand reliably on smaller to medium-sized game, with the velocity and flat trajectory that shorter-range varmint work demands.

If you're running a .22 Hornet rifle—whether it's a vintage Ruger, Thompson/Center, or modern reproduction—and you want ammunition that delivers consistent performance without the guesswork, HSM's Varmint line removes the reloading burden and gets you in the field faster. The 50-round box format is practical for hunters who prefer factory ammunition or shooters building a supply of proven loads for a trusted rifle.
