The Sellier & Bellot 22 Hornet 45 Grain Soft Point ammunition is a practical, economical choice for varmint hunters and small-game shooters who want reliable Czech-made rounds without the premium price tag. Built on a legacy stretching back to 1825, Sellier & Bellot has shipped billions of centerfire rifle rounds worldwide, and this 22 Hornet load reflects that manufacturing pedigree—clean brass, consistent primers, and dependable soft-point projectiles that expand reliably on small game and varmints. Each box contains 20 rounds, making it an affordable way to stock up for a day at the range or in the field.
The 45-grain soft-point bullet is the workhorse of 22 Hornet shooting. It delivers the velocity and energy needed for clean, quick kills on prairie dogs, foxes, rabbits, and other varmints out to reasonable hunting distances. The soft-point design promotes reliable expansion on impact while maintaining enough integrity to avoid over-fragmentation on lighter targets. For shooters who reload, Sellier & Bellot brass is well-regarded for durability and straightforward resizing characteristics.
Whether you're running an older Winchester 22 Hornet, a Ruger, or a modern single-shot, this ammunition pairs the 22 Hornet's modest recoil and flat trajectory with a bullet that gets the job done. It's the kind of no-nonsense ammo that works, shoot after shoot, without pretension or surprises.
