Sellier & Bellot 22 Hornet 45gr Soft Point Ammo - 20 Rounds

The Sellier & Bellot SB22HB delivers consistent performance for varmint hunting and target shooting with its 45-grain soft point design. This Czech-manufactured ammunition provides reliable expansion and accuracy in 22 Hornet chambered rifles.

What Makes This Different

Sellier & Bellot's 150+ years of ammunition manufacturing experience shows in the precise powder charges and quality control standards applied to each cartridge. The soft point bullet design ensures controlled expansion on impact while maintaining structural integrity for deep penetration. Unlike hollow point alternatives, the soft point configuration feeds reliably in bolt-action and single-shot rifles while delivering consistent terminal performance on small game and varmints.

Key Features

• 45-grain soft point bullet for controlled expansion and reliable feeding
• Boxer-primed brass cases suitable for reloading
• Muzzle velocity of approximately 2,690 fps from 24-inch barrel
• Non-corrosive primer and powder for consistent ignition
• Factory-loaded to SAAMI specifications for safety and performance
• 20-round boxes packed in 90-case lots for volume shooters
• Compatible with all rifles chambered in 22 Hornet

Field testing shows this load performs effectively on prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and similar-sized varmints out to 200 yards. The moderate recoil makes it suitable for extended shooting sessions, while the flat trajectory simplifies range estimation for hunters. Brass cases extract cleanly from most chamber configurations, and the non-corrosive formulation prevents barrel damage during storage.
