V-Max Bullet Design

The V-Max bullet is engineered for rapid expansion and fragmentation upon impact. The polymer tip initiates expansion from the inside out, while the gilding metal jacket and designed lead core work together to ensure consistent performance across a range of varmint species. High ballistic coefficients mean less wind drift and flatter trajectories at practical hunting ranges.

Quality and Consistency

Each cartridge receives hand inspection by Hornady to ensure cosmetic perfection. The ammunition is loaded to precise specifications for optimal pressure, velocity, and accuracy. Hornady selects premium brass for reliable feeding, corrosion resistance, and the ability to withstand maximum chamber pressures. Propellant and primers are carefully chosen to deliver lot-to-lot consistency you can depend on.

The Right Tool for the Job

Whether you're controlling prairie dogs, ground squirrels, or other varmints, Hornady Varmint Express delivers the accuracy and terminal performance that separates successful hunts from frustrating misses.
