Winchester WB22HP46X 22 Hornet 46gr Hollow Point Bullets 100ct

The Winchester WB22HP46X delivers precision-engineered 46-grain hollow point bullets specifically designed for 22 Hornet cartridge reloading. These bullets provide consistent expansion and accuracy for varmint hunting and target shooting applications. Winchester's quality control standards ensure uniform weight distribution and concentricity across each production lot.

What Makes This Different

Winchester's hollow point design features a controlled expansion cavity that opens reliably at 22 Hornet velocities, typically 2,600-2,800 fps. The 46-grain weight provides an optimal balance between velocity retention and terminal performance compared to lighter 35-grain or heavier 50-grain alternatives. Each bullet undergoes dimensional inspection to maintain consistent base-to-ogive measurements critical for accuracy.

Key Features

• 46-grain hollow point construction optimized for varmint hunting performance
• Precision-formed copper jacket with controlled expansion cavity
• Consistent 0.224-inch diameter with tight tolerances
• Lead core provides reliable expansion at moderate velocities
• 100-count packaging reduces cost per round for volume reloaders
• Compatible with standard 22 Hornet brass and loading data
• Uniform weight sorting within +/- 0.1 grain specifications

These bullets perform effectively in bolt-action rifles with 1:14 twist rates common in 22 Hornet chamberings. The hollow point design expands rapidly on impact with prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and similar-sized game at ranges from 50 to 200 yards. The 46-grain weight maintains sufficient energy for clean kills while minimizing pelt damage compared to heavier bullets.
