You are no friend of varmints. Your 223 WSSM rifle is proof of this. So too is your interest in this fantastic American-made hunting ammunition by Hornady!
Goodness knows how many varmints the V-MAX bullet has slain over the years. It’s perfectly accurate enough for that purpose, as it combines an Advanced Manufacturing Process jacket, swaged lead core, and sharp polymer tip to attain a screaming high 0.255 G1 ballistic coefficient (relative to its weight and caliber, that is). Upon taking flight out of a 24” barrel, the V-MAX will do this (approximately):
0yds: 3,850 fps | 1,811 ft lbs | -1.5”
100yds: 3,406 fps | 1,417 ft lbs | 0.8”
200yds: 3,006 fps | 1,104 ft lbs | 0.0”
300yds: 2,641 fps | 852 ft lbs | -4.6”
400yds: 2,304 fps | 648 ft lbs | -14.3”
500yds: 1,992 fps | 484 ft lbs | -30.5”
The V-MAX doesn’t just reliably reach its prey. It also tears it to ribbons, as its tip and core’s nose cavity are designed to trigger expansion and fragmentation following impact as slow as 1,600 fps. And thanks to this round’s Superformance propellant – which bumps up conventional muzzle velocity by 100 to 200 fps, without generating unsafe chamber pressure – the V-MAX has even more power to work with!
