The Speer 1047 Varmint delivers consistent terminal performance for small game and varmint hunting with its precisely manufactured 55-grain jacketed soft point design. These .224 diameter bullets provide reliable expansion and accuracy across multiple rifle platforms. Speer's controlled manufacturing process ensures uniform weight distribution and concentricity for shot-to-shot consistency.
What Makes This Different
Speer's jacketed soft point construction combines a lead core with a precision-drawn copper jacket that's partially exposed at the tip. This design initiates controlled expansion upon impact while maintaining structural integrity during flight. The 55-grain weight offers an optimal balance of velocity retention and energy transfer for varmint-sized targets. Manufacturing tolerances held to ±0.3 grains ensure predictable ballistic performance.Key Features
