Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Hornady Superformance different from standard 22-250 factory loads?
Hornady Superformance ammunition uses specially formulated propellants that extract 100–200 fps more velocity than conventional loads — without exceeding safe pressure limits. This translates to a noticeably flatter trajectory, less wind drift, and more retained energy at distance, all from factory ammunition rather than handloads. The gains are realized across a wide variety of 22-250 Remington rifles.
Is the V-MAX bullet suitable for coyotes, or is it strictly a small-varmint bullet?
The 50 Grain V-MAX is highly effective on both small varmints like prairie dogs and ground squirrels and medium-sized predators like coyotes and foxes. Its polymer tip initiates rapid, explosive expansion on impact, delivering decisive terminal results. At 22-250 velocities, it provides the energy needed for clean, ethical coyote hunting at typical field distances.
Will this ammunition work in a standard 22-250 Remington chamber, or does it require a specific rifle?
Hornady Superformance Varmint 22-250 loads are headspaced and loaded to SAAMI specifications, making them compatible with any rifle chambered in 22-250 Remington with a standard chamber. No special chamber or modifications are required. As with any new ammunition, it's a good practice to confirm function and accuracy in your specific rifle before heading to the field.
