Sierra Varminter Rifle Bullets

For decades, marksmen and hunters have associated accuracy and superior ballistic performance with one name more than any other: Sierra. On the range or in the field, Sierra bullets offer that extra margin of performance you can depend on. The rifle bullets in Sierra's product line are arranged in six classifications, depending on the intended application, design features, and the range of cartridges that may use the bullet. Two of these classifications include all of Sierra's match target bullets for target shooting, and the other five classifications are for hunting applications.Varminter Bullets: This classification of bullets is designed specifically for rapid expansion and instant kills on larger varmints and small game. The shapes of bullets in this classification include hollow point (HP), spitzer pointed flat base (SPT), and semi-pointed (SMP). Bullets in this classification have thin jackets to enhance expansion but with sufficient strength to be fired at the highest muzzle velocities in the cartridges for which they are intended. Bullets labeled as Blitz are designed for medium velocity (under 3600 fps).Hornet Bullets: These are 22 caliber bullets within the Varminter family. These bullets are of 40 and 45 grains in weight designed in the traditional shape for the 22 Hornet cartridge. Their purpose is hunting varmints and small game, and they are designed to expand reliably at velocities in the 2500 to 2800 fps range, although they can be loaded in cartridges generating up to 3500 fps muzzle velocity.Bullet Designs:Caliber Specifications:.22 Caliber / 45 Grain / Hornet:.22 Caliber / 45 Grain / Spitzer:.22 Caliber / 50 Grain / Semi Point:.22 Caliber / 55 Grain / Spitzer:.22 Caliber / 60 Grain / Hollow Point:.22 Caliber / 40 Grain / Hollow Point:6mm (.243 Caliber) / 80 Grain / BLITZ Spitzer Boat Tail:.25 Caliber / 75 Grain / Hollow Point:6.5mm (.264 Caliber) / 85 Grain / Hollow Point:7.62mm (.30 Caliber) / 110 Grain / Hollow Point:
