Sierra Varminter .22 Caliber 40 Grain Full Metal Jacket Rifle Bullets

The .22 caliber holds a unique place in the history of hunting and shooting sports, and the development of recoil-operable cartridges has helped to lay the foundation for modern day varmint hunting. Using a traditional round nose bullet design in a venomous round was the only logical thing to do. While they are recognized around the world for record-setting accuracy, Sierra believes their .22 cal bullets can do even more damage than that. The 22cal / 223 Remington and .22 Caliber Round Nose HPBT bullets are perhaps best known for being a varmint hunting bullet. While they will gobble up small game, they seldom do much damage to larger game. With a similar sort of penetration that a .22 cal bullet with a jacket no thicker than a turkey round should provide, they will actually expand much more quickly and create a larger wound channel than a conventional bullet of the same weight. Sierra believes this is the proper weight for the job and has designed the bullet to achieve its stated goals while functioning in a medium capacity cartridge.
