The Winchester Super X 22 Hornet 46-grain Jacketed Hollow Point delivers exceptional expansion and knockdown power for varmint hunting and pest control applications. This premium ammunition combines Winchester's proven manufacturing standards with optimized bullet design for consistent terminal performance at extended ranges.
What Makes This Different
The jacketed hollow point construction provides controlled expansion upon impact while maintaining structural integrity during flight. Unlike standard full metal jacket rounds, the hollow point cavity creates rapid energy transfer and reliable expansion even at the 22 Hornet's moderate velocities. The 46-grain bullet weight strikes an optimal balance between velocity retention and stopping power for small to medium-sized varmints.

Field performance demonstrates effective expansion on prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and similar-sized targets out to 200 yards. The jacketed construction prevents bullet fragmentation in flight while the hollow point ensures rapid expansion upon contact with soft tissue. Accuracy testing shows consistent sub-2 MOA groups from quality bolt-action rifles, making this ammunition suitable for precision varmint work where shot placement matters.
