Who This Is For
This load is purpose-built for varmint and predator hunters who demand accuracy and explosive terminal performance on small targets like prairie dogs, ground squirrels, coyotes, and foxes. It's equally at home for competitive shooters and range enthusiasts who want a fast, accurate .223 round that shoots flat and groups tight.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this ammunition suitable for AR-15 rifles chambered in 5.56 NATO?
This load is chambered in .223 Remington and is safe to fire in any rifle with a .223 Rem or 5.56 NATO chamber. However, because .223 Rem operates at slightly lower pressures than 5.56 NATO, it's ideal for bolt-action rifles with true .223 chambers as well as AR-15s with standard 5.56 or Wylde chambers. Always confirm your firearm's chamber marking before use.
What makes the V-MAX bullet effective for varmint hunting?
The Hornady V-MAX features a polymer tip that initiates rapid, consistent expansion the moment it contacts a target — even at extended ranges where bullet velocity has decreased. This produces explosive terminal performance on small game and varmints, minimizing the chance of a wounded animal escaping. The boat-tail design also improves ballistic coefficient and downrange accuracy compared to flat-base designs.
Is this ammunition reloadable?
Yes. Fiocchi loads this ammunition in high-quality brass cases using Boxer primers, making spent casings fully reloadable. Once fired, the brass can be resized, reprimed, and reloaded using standard .223 Remington reloading dies — an excellent advantage for handloaders looking to extend the value of each box purchased.
