Hornady Superformance Varmint 223 Rem 53gr V-MAX 20rd Box

The Hornady Superformance Varmint 223 Rem ammunition delivers exceptional velocity and devastating terminal performance for varmint hunting and precision shooting. This 53-grain V-MAX load achieves velocities up to 3,465 fps, providing flatter trajectories and enhanced long-range accuracy compared to conventional 223 ammunition.

What Makes This Different

Superformance propellant technology increases velocity by 100-200 fps over standard loads without increasing pressure or recoil. The polymer-tipped V-MAX bullet expands rapidly upon impact, creating massive wound channels that drop varmints instantly. Temperature-stable powders maintain consistent performance across varying weather conditions, while match-grade brass cases ensure reliable feeding and extraction.

Key Features

• 53-grain V-MAX bullet with polymer tip for rapid expansion
• Superformance propellant achieves 3,465 fps muzzle velocity
• Match-grade brass cases with consistent wall thickness
• Temperature-stable powder for reliable performance
• Boat-tail design improves ballistic coefficient and accuracy
• 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)
• Optimized for bolt-action and semi-automatic rifles

Field testing demonstrates sub-MOA accuracy in quality rifles, with the lightweight 53-grain bullet maintaining over 2,000 fps at 300 yards. The V-MAX design fragments violently on impact, making it ideal for prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and other small game where pelt damage is not a concern. Consistent powder charges and primer seating ensure reliable ignition in both hunting and competitive shooting scenarios.
