Sierra 1340 Varminter 22Cal 50gr Spitzer Blitz Bullets 100/Box

The Sierra 1340 Varminter delivers explosive expansion and pinpoint accuracy for small game and varmint hunting. This 50-grain Spitzer Blitz bullet transforms kinetic energy into devastating terminal performance on contact. Engineered with Sierra's proven thin jacket construction, each projectile fragments rapidly upon impact for maximum energy transfer.

What Makes This Different

Sierra's Blitz technology features an ultra-thin jacket paired with a soft lead core that creates controlled fragmentation rather than deep penetration. Unlike standard varmint bullets that may over-penetrate, the Spitzer Blitz design ensures energy dumps completely within the target. This construction delivers 30% faster expansion compared to conventional hollow point designs while maintaining sub-MOA accuracy potential.

Key Features

• 50-grain Spitzer Blitz design optimized for explosive varmint performance
• Thin jacket construction ensures rapid fragmentation on impact
• Boat-tail base design reduces drag for improved long-range ballistics
• Precision-swaged lead core maintains consistent weight distribution
• 0.224-inch diameter compatible with all .22 caliber centerfire rifles
• Ballistic coefficient of 0.214 for predictable trajectory
• 100-count bulk packaging for extended shooting sessions

Field performance testing shows consistent 2-inch groups at 200 yards when loaded with appropriate powder charges. The Spitzer Blitz excels in prairie dog towns, ground squirrel colonies, and crow hunting scenarios where immediate incapacitation prevents wounded game escape. Weather-resistant construction maintains accuracy across temperature extremes from -20°F to 140°F storage conditions.
