The new Hornady 22WMR ammunition delivers the pinnacle of rimfire performance. It has a 30gr V-MAX projectile that leaves the muzzle at an unbelievable 2200 feet per second, and delivers excellent terminal performance out to 125 yards. Before the introduction of this new 22WMR from Hornady, shooters were limited to ammunition that had a maximum velocity of around 1900 fps.

The next advantage that the new Hornady 22WMR has over its competition is accuracy. With its higher bullet coefficient, the VMAX projectile maintains a velocity edge downrange as less speed and bullet drop are lost due to aerodynamic drag. The bullet design helps with grouping through stability and consistency in the air. On breezy days the .22 Magnum has an added accuracy advantage over the 17HMR as the effects of side wind 'drift' are much less.
