The Hornady V-MAX projectiles are engineered with a combination of proven materials, innovative design, and a streamlined profile. They represent the pinnacle of specialised varmint bullets, delivering straight-line trajectories, enhanced accuracy, dramatic expansion, and explosive fragmentation across a wide range of distances and velocities.

As the industry's leading varmint projectile, the V-MAX features a polymer tip and a streamlined design, resulting in exceptionally flat trajectories. The concentricity of the match-grade AMP bullet jacket ensures maximum accuracy at all ranges, alongside explosive expansion even at velocities as low as 1600 fps.

Key Features

• Polymer Tip: The secret to the explosive terminal performance of the V-MAX is a hollow cavity resting between the tip's shaft and the body of the projectile. Upon impact, the hard shaft builds up speed and energy before driving into the core, causing the entire package to rapidly expand to the point of violent fragmentation, even at low terminal velocities.
• Higher Ballistic Coefficient: Hornady combines the sharp, pointed polymer tip with the most aerodynamic profile for a high ballistic coefficient. The V-MAX profile also provides the maximum bearing surface for added in-flight stability.
• Swaged Lead Core: The swaging process allows precise formation of the core up and around the tip, with a cavity under the tip's stem. This allows the tip to build up energy before smashing into the core, causing dramatic fragmentation of the core and jacket.
• Precise Boattail & Flatbase Designs: Utilising the proper base design provides incredible in-flight stability for long-range shooting.
