The Sierra 1360 Varminter delivers exceptional accuracy and explosive terminal performance for varmint hunters and precision shooters. These 55-grain spitzer bullets feature Sierra's proven varminter design that maximizes velocity while maintaining consistent flight characteristics. Each bullet undergoes Sierra's rigorous quality control process to ensure match-grade consistency shot after shot.
What Makes This Different
Sierra's Varminter bullets incorporate a thin jacket design specifically engineered for rapid expansion on varmint-sized game. The spitzer profile achieves a ballistic coefficient of .243, delivering flatter trajectories than standard 55-grain bullets. Sierra's manufacturing process maintains weight variance within ±0.3 grains, providing the consistency demanded by precision shooters and competitive varmint hunters.
Key Features
- 55-grain spitzer design optimized for .22 caliber rifles (.224 diameter)
- Thin jacket construction ensures rapid expansion on contact
- Ballistic coefficient of .243 for superior long-range performance
- Weight tolerance held to ±0.3 grains for consistent accuracy
- Boat-tail base design reduces drag and improves stability
- 100 bullets per box with protective packaging
- Compatible with standard .22 caliber reloading dies and equipment
Field testing demonstrates these bullets maintain sub-MOA accuracy in quality .22-250, .223 Remington, and .220 Swift rifles when properly loaded. The explosive expansion makes them highly effective on prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and coyotes at ranges extending beyond 300 yards. The boat-tail design maintains velocity better than flat-base alternatives, resulting in less wind drift during long-range engagements.
