Weatherby R224805Fbt 224Wthbymag 80.5Gr 20 Per Box/10 Case
If you're running a .224 Weatherby Magnum rifle and want to shoot the way Roy Weatherby intended—flat, fast, and accurate—you need ammunition built to match that cartridge's capabilities. Weatherby's own .224 Weatherby Magnum factory loads come loaded to the standard 80.5-grain specification, delivering the velocity and precision this magnum round is famous for. Each box contains 20 rounds, and they're sold in convenient 10-box cases, making it easy to stock up for varmint season, predator work, or precision range sessions.
The .224 Weatherby Magnum earned its reputation as one of the fastest .22-caliber factory cartridges on the market. Introduced in 1964, it was purpose-built from the ground up—not based on a parent case—to push the boundaries of what a .22 magnum could do downrange. When you load these factory rounds in a rifle chambered for the .224 Weatherby Magnum, you get the flat trajectory and extended effective range that made this round a favorite among hunters pursuing coyotes, prairie dogs, and other small game where distance and energy retention matter.
Using factory ammunition matched to your rifle's chamber takes the guesswork out of handloading and ensures consistent performance. Weatherby ammo is manufactured to exacting standards, so you can focus on shot placement rather than worrying about whether your loads are optimized. Whether you're setting up for a long-range varmint hunt or spending time at the range, these rounds give you the ballistics advantage that comes with owning a true magnum .22.
