Speer 1023 Varmint 22 Cal 45gr JSP Bullets - 100/Box 5 Cases

The Speer 1023 Varmint delivers consistent expansion and terminal performance for small game and varmint hunting applications. These 45-grain jacketed soft point bullets provide the controlled expansion needed for clean, humane kills on prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and similar-sized targets.

What Makes This Different

Speer's jacketed soft point design combines a lead core with a precisely formed copper jacket that controls expansion while maintaining weight retention. The 45-grain weight provides an optimal balance of velocity and energy transfer for 22-caliber rifles. This construction delivers more consistent performance than hollow point designs that can fragment excessively on small targets.

Key Features

• 45-grain jacketed soft point construction for controlled expansion
• Copper jacket with exposed lead tip optimizes terminal ballistics
• Uniform weight distribution ensures consistent accuracy
• Compatible with all standard 22-caliber rifle chambers (.223 Rem, .22-250, etc.)
• Bulk packaging reduces cost per round for high-volume shooting
• Manufactured to SAAMI specifications for reliable chambering
• 500 total rounds (5 boxes of 100) for extended shooting sessions

Field performance shows these bullets maintain structural integrity while delivering rapid energy transfer on impact. The soft point design initiates expansion immediately upon contact with tissue, creating effective wound channels without the over-penetration common with full metal jacket rounds. Accuracy remains consistent across various rifle platforms, with most quality rifles achieving sub-2 MOA groups at 100 yards.
