The V-MAX bullets in Hornady’s 223 Varmint Express ammunition consistently achieve rapid fragmentation at all practical varmint shooting velocities. Every Varmint Express cartridge is hand inspected before leaving the Hornady factory, ensuring there are no cosmetic flaws and imperfections.

Each cartridge is loaded to ensure optimal pressure, velocity, accuracy and lot-to-lot consistency. Like the powder, each primer is carefully matched to individual loads, and all are chosen for their ability to quickly, completely and reliably ignite the powder charge.
