Hornady Superformance .222 Remington 50gr V-MAX ammunition is designed to deliver maximum velocity and superior varmint hunting performance. Hornady’s Superformance® propellant technology increases muzzle velocity compared to traditional loads while maintaining safe pressure levels and consistent accuracy.
At the core of this cartridge is the 50-grain V-MAX® projectile, a polymer-tipped bullet engineered for rapid expansion and explosive fragmentation on impact. The aerodynamic polymer tip improves ballistic efficiency while helping initiate immediate expansion when the bullet reaches the target.
The V-MAX bullet features a precision-engineered jacket and boat-tail profile, helping reduce drag and improve downrange stability. This design contributes to flat trajectories and excellent accuracy, which are essential when engaging small targets at extended distances.
With a muzzle velocity of approximately 3395 feet per second, this load delivers fast target engagement and devastating terminal performance, making it ideal for varmint and predator hunting with rifles chambered in .222 Remington.
