Hornady 2240 .224 Caliber 50 Grain Spire Point SX Varmint Bullets, 100 Count

Hornady Traditional Varmint bullets are designed for reloaders seeking dependable performance in classic varmint rifles. Part number 2240 features a streamlined Spire Point SX profile that supports a flat trajectory and a ballistic coefficient of .214. The .224-inch diameter, 50-grain bullet is well suited for .22 caliber rifle applications and is engineered to perform effectively across a range of velocities, including lower-velocity loads.
The Traditional Varmint line reflects the original design principles established by Joyce Hornady for classic varmint hunting. Each bullet combines a lead core with an AMP copper jacket for consistent construction and reliable in-flight performance. The flat-base design contributes to the traditional profile, while the lead tip complements the Spire Point configuration for a practical balance of aerodynamic shape and field performance.
These Hornady reloading bullets are supplied as 100 projectiles per box, making them a useful choice for handloaders preparing varmint ammunition. With a sectional density of .142, the bullets provide a clearly defined ballistic profile for load development and rifle-specific applications. The copper-coated jacket, lead core, and lead tip are selected to support the Traditional Varmint bullet’s intended role in small-game and varmint shooting. Always follow appropriate reloading data and safe loading practices when assembling ammunition.
