200 Rounds of .224 Valkyrie Ammo by Hornady Varmint Express - 60gr GMX

This 224 Valkyrie cartridge from Hornady complements its caliber’s already remarkably flat trajectory and high ballistic coefficient with its 60 grain V-MAX projectile. The aerodynamic V-MAX sports a sharp polymer tip to let it slice through the air, a match grade AMP jacket which maximizes its rotational stability, and a profile which greatly bolsters its stability in flight. This bullet requires only your aim to get where it needs to go.

As it caps a Varmint Express round, where this particular V-MAX needs to go is into a varmint. The bullet’s polymer tip also acts to initiate violent expansion, as it is poised over a hollow within its precisely formed swaged lead core into which it is driven upon impact. This bullet’s terminal performance is nicely complemented by its virtually perfectly concentric jacket -- any gopher that discovers a V-MAX flying toward him is going to have far bigger problems than whatever gophers usually concern themselves with.

This round’s select brass casing evinces its Nebraskan manufacturer’s characteristic respect for great quality. Its propellant delivers a consistent chamber pressure and velocity with every shot, and its primer stands by to ignite dependably.
