- The box contains 20 rounds, which is a relatively small quantity if you need ammunition for extended range sessions or high-volume practice.
- The V-Max bullet is described for rapid fragmentation on impact, so this load is geared toward varmint and small-game use rather than general-purpose hunting.
- The listed performance figures are specific to this load and should be matched to your rifle and intended use before purchase.
