The Hornady V-MAX 6mm .243 75-grain bullets deliver explosive expansion and pinpoint accuracy for varmint hunting and target shooting. These polymer-tipped projectiles feature Hornady's proven V-MAX design that combines match-grade construction with devastating terminal performance on small game and varmints.
What Makes This Different
The V-MAX bullet design incorporates a sharp polymer tip that initiates rapid expansion upon impact while improving ballistic coefficient for flatter trajectories. Unlike standard hollow point bullets, the polymer tip prevents deformation in the magazine and creates consistent expansion at various velocities. The streamlined profile achieves superior accuracy compared to traditional soft point designs, with many rifles producing sub-MOA groups at 100 yards.
Key Features
- 75-grain polymer-tipped bullet optimized for .243 Winchester and 6mm cartridges
- Sharp polymer tip enhances ballistic coefficient and triggers explosive expansion
- Match-grade jacket construction ensures consistent accuracy shot after shot
- Streamlined boat-tail design reduces drag for extended effective range
- Lead core engineered for controlled fragmentation on varmints
- 100 bullets per box, 4,000 bullets per case (40 boxes)
- Diameter: .243 inches with precise manufacturing tolerances
These bullets excel in prairie dog towns, coyote stands, and long-range varmint scenarios where quick kills and minimal pelt damage matter. The 75-grain weight provides excellent stability in standard .243 Winchester twist rates while maintaining flat trajectory out to 400 yards. Weather conditions have minimal impact on performance due to the aerodynamic polymer tip design.
