The Speer Varmint .224 45gr Spitzer bullet is built for reloaders who want precision and controlled performance on small game and varmints. These 100-round batches give you the consistency you need to craft accurate, reliable ammunition without the waste or pelt damage of overly aggressive loads. If you're handloading for .224 Valkyrie, .222 Remington, or similar small-caliber rifle rounds, Speer's soft-point design strikes the balance between accuracy and terminal performance that serious varmint hunters depend on.
The spitzer profile delivers the aerodynamics and ballistic efficiency that flat-nose or blunt designs can't match, keeping your shots true out to practical varmint ranges. The soft-point construction is engineered to expand reliably without the violent, hide-destroying effects of full-metal-jacket or fragmenting bullets—a real advantage if you're selling or keeping pelts. For reloaders focused on handload quality and shot placement, these bullets reward consistency and skill.
Speer has been a trusted name in component bullets for decades, and this varmint offering is no exception. Whether you're loading match-grade practice rounds or fine-tuning a dedicated varmint rifle, these .224 45gr bullets give you the raw material to build ammo that performs.
