Sierra 1100 Varminter 22 Cal 40gr Round Nose Hornet Bullets 100/Box

The Sierra 1100 Varminter delivers exceptional accuracy and reliable expansion for small game and varmint hunting in 22 Hornet cartridges. These 40-grain round nose bullets provide the perfect balance of velocity retention and controlled expansion that serious hunters demand.

What Makes This Different

Sierra's precision manufacturing process creates bullets with consistent weight tolerances within ±0.3 grains, significantly tighter than industry standards. The round nose profile maintains higher ballistic coefficients compared to flat-point designs, extending effective range while ensuring reliable feeding in lever-action and bolt-action rifles. Each bullet undergoes Sierra's multi-step quality control process, including visual inspection and weight verification.

Key Features

• 40-grain round nose design optimized for 22 Hornet velocities up to 2,700 fps
• Precision-swaged lead core with gilding metal jacket for consistent expansion
• ±0.3 grain weight tolerance ensures shot-to-shot consistency
• Round nose profile feeds reliably in all 22 Hornet chamber configurations
• Ballistic coefficient of 0.121 maintains velocity at extended ranges
• 100 bullets per box with protective foam inserts prevent damage
• Compatible with standard 22 Hornet brass and loading data

Field performance shows these bullets maintain accuracy nodes between 2,400-2,700 fps, making them versatile for both reduced loads and maximum velocity applications. The controlled expansion design creates reliable wound channels on prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and similar-sized varmints out to 200 yards. The round nose configuration reduces wind drift compared to hollow point alternatives while maintaining sufficient expansion for clean, ethical kills.
