Hornady 2249 .224 Caliber 52 Grain BTHP Match Reloading Bullets, 100 Count

Hornady 2249 Match bullets are designed for precision-focused reloaders seeking consistent performance from .224 caliber ammunition. Each 52 grain hollow point boat tail match bullet features Hornady’s Advanced Manufacturing Process (AMP) jacket, a highly refined design that combines advanced tooling and manufacturing techniques to produce exceptionally concentric jackets. This consistency supports reliable bullet alignment and helps promote repeatable results during load development and range use.
The precision-swaged lead core is manufactured to demanding standards and paired with a copper jacket for dependable uniformity. The geometric profile is engineered to reduce drag and support flatter trajectories, while the secant ogive helps provide an effective balance of bearing surface, in-flight stability, and ballistic performance. A carefully optimized boat tail angle and length are matched to the .224 caliber, 52 grain configuration to help maximize the bullet’s ballistic coefficient and downrange efficiency.
These Hornady Match bullets have a listed ballistic coefficient of .229 and a sectional density of .148. The hollow point boat tail design uses a lead tip and lead core with copper jacket material and copper coating. They are non-cannelured bullets intended for reloading applications and are packaged 100 bullets per box. Hornady Part Number 2249 offers a practical choice for shooters building precision-oriented .22 caliber loads and evaluating consistency across carefully prepared ammunition. Always consult current reloading data and follow established handloading practices when selecting components and developing loads.
