Description
.22 CALIBER ( .224 ) 60 GR. HP
For Rifles – this is a high-velocity bullet designed to give precision accuracy with the explosive expansion of Sierra’s Varminter-style construction.
This bullet is at its best when fired from the larger-capacity cartridges, such as the 22-250 or 220 Swift in rifles with barrels having 1×14″ twist rates, stabilizing easily for excellent long-range accuracy and effective expansion. Normally, 1×12″ or faster twist rates work best for medium-capacity cases, such as the 223 Remington.
These bullets are excellent for long-range varmint hunting.
For Handguns – although this bullet is of Hollow Point construction, we cannot recommend it for hunting purposes.
