Hornady - Varmint Express - .224 Valkyrie

Varmint Express^® Ammunition

Hornady^® Varmint Express^® ammunition is designed around the hard-hitting performance of our famous V-MAX^® bullet. Polymer tipped V-MAX^® bullets deliver match accuracy, high ballistic coefficients, wind defying trajectories, and rapid fragmentation upon contact. Each Varmint Express^® offering is loaded with high quality cases and carefully selected propellant and primers that are chosen to provide the best performance in each individual load.

Description:

• Proven Bullets: Hornady V-MAX^® bullets consistently achieve accuracy and rapid fragmentation at all practical varmint shooting velocities.
• Powder: Each cartridge is loaded to ensure optimal pressure, velocity, accuracy and lot-to-lot consistency.
• Select Brass: Hornady produces most of the brass for our Varmint Express^®ammunition. Brass is chosen to ensure it meets our high standards for reliable feeding, corrosion resistance, proper hardness, and the ability to withstand maximum chamber pressures.
• Primers: Like the powder, each primer is carefully matched to individual loads, and all are chosen for their ability to quickly, completely and reliably ignite the powder charge.
