The Hornady Superformance Varmint 17 Hornet delivers explosive terminal performance with 20-grain V-MAX bullets engineered for maximum varmint destruction. This premium ammunition combines Hornady's proven Superformance propellant technology with the devastating expansion characteristics of polymer-tipped V-MAX projectiles.
What Makes This Different
Superformance propellant technology increases velocity up to 200 fps over conventional ammunition without increasing chamber pressure or barrel wear. The V-MAX bullet design features a polymer tip that initiates rapid expansion upon impact, creating massive wound channels in prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and other varmints. This combination delivers flatter trajectories and more devastating terminal effects than standard varmint loads.Key Features
