The Nosler Varmageddon 22 Hornet delivers explosive terminal performance specifically engineered for varmint hunting applications. This 35-grain flat base tipped ammunition transforms the classic 22 Hornet cartridge into a precision varmint elimination tool with devastating expansion characteristics.
What Makes This Different
The Varmageddon line features Nosler's specialized flat base tipped bullet design that maximizes explosive fragmentation upon impact while maintaining exceptional accuracy downrange. Unlike traditional hollow point varmint rounds, the polymer tip initiates rapid expansion at lower velocities typical of the 22 Hornet cartridge. This design ensures complete energy transfer and minimal pelt damage for fur-bearing game while delivering the stopping power needed for prairie dog towns and ground squirrel colonies.
Key Features
- 35-grain flat base tipped bullet optimized for explosive varmint performance
- Polymer tip design ensures consistent expansion at 22 Hornet velocities
- Nosler premium brass cases with precise neck tension for accuracy
- Factory-loaded with temperature-stable powder for consistent velocities
- Flat base bullet profile enhances accuracy in standard twist barrels
- 50-round boxes provide extended range sessions without frequent reloading
- Case quantities available for high-volume varmint control operations
Field performance testing shows this ammunition delivers consistent sub-MOA accuracy from quality 22 Hornet rifles while maintaining devastating terminal effects on varmints from prairie dogs to coyotes. The flat base design stabilizes effectively in the 1:14 twist rates common to most 22 Hornet barrels, while the tipped bullet construction ensures reliable expansion even at the cartridge's moderate velocities. Weather-resistant primer sealing protects against moisture during extended hunting seasons.
