In the realm of precision shooting, few things are as crucial as the choice of ammunition. Enter Sierra's .22 Caliber High Velocity 40-grain Hornet bullet—a testament to engineering prowess and purpose-driven design. This particular round is crafted with a Hollow Point Flat Base, delivering on both accuracy and explosive expansion.
When paired with rifles, this high-velocity projectile shines through its Varminter-style construction. It promises unparalleled precision even at lower velocity levels where other rounds may falter. While some might find it "hard" at Hornet velocities, those who understand its capabilities will appreciate its extraordinary accuracy over extended ranges.
For handgun enthusiasts seeking versatility in target practice beyond 125-150 yards, this bullet serves admirably well, though it's not recommended for hunting due to its hollow point nature.
Introduced in 1984 under the designation #1385 by Sierra Bullets—a name synonymous with quality—this cartridge continues to uphold a legacy of excellence across various ballistic coefficients: .155 at speeds exceeding 2400 fps; .160 between 2000 and 2400 fps; and .165 when below that threshold.
Each box contains 100 rounds designed for those who demand reliability without compromise.
