The Hornady® V-MAX™ bullet stands as a testament to precision and performance in the realm of varmint hunting. This projectile is crafted for those who demand both accuracy and explosive impact, even at modest velocities starting from 1600 fps. With its sharp polymer tip, this bullet not only enhances ballistic coefficient but also initiates dramatic expansion upon contact with the target.
The design philosophy behind the V-MAX™ is rooted in aerodynamics and stability. By combining a pointed polymer tip with an aerodynamic profile, Hornady ensures that each shot you take travels flatter over longer distances, reducing drop significantly when compared to conventional ammunition.
A hallmark of this bullet's engineering is its swaged lead core. The meticulous formation process wraps the core precisely around the tip while creating a cavity beneath it. This structural nuance allows energy to accumulate before unleashing devastating fragmentation upon impact—a critical factor for effective varmint control.
Diverse base designs further enhance flight stability across various shooting scenarios. Whether opting for boattail or flatbase configurations, shooters benefit from exceptional consistency and reliability during long-range engagements.
This combination of features makes Hornady's V-MAX™ one of the industry's leading choices for varmint bullets—delivering maximum accuracy through match-grade concentricity alongside explosive terminal performance where it counts most.
