Overview
Built for varmint hunting, these 22 caliber hollow point bullets are intended for shooters who want a lightweight projectile for high-velocity loads and flatter trajectories. Their lightly constructed design is aimed at rapid expansion, with the added benefit of minimizing ricochets in the field. Sold as a box of 100, they are a component bullet rather than loaded ammunition, making them suited to handloaders setting up for dedicated predator or varmint work.

Pros
- Designed for demanding varmint hunting applications

- Box of 100 bullets for extended loading needs

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for varmint hunting, so the lightweight hollow point construction is not intended as a general-purpose bullet choice for all shooting applications.
- The 40-grain weight and 0.155 G1 ballistic coefficient reflect a focus on high-velocity use and flatter trajectories, which may not suit slower loads or longer-range precision priorities.
- This is not loaded ammunition, so it requires compatible components and proper loading practices before use.
- Non-coated, lead-containing construction may be a consideration for hunters with specific range, environmental, or lead-free requirements.
