Hornady 22 Creedmoor ammunition

by Tony Pizzata 4 months ago4 months ago

The 22 Creedmoor is now available in Australia. It is a high-velocity, low-recoil round ideal for varmint shooters who require a flat shooting bullet with exceptional long-range performance.

Equally at home for other game like goats and some of our smaller deer species, this new line of Hornady ammunition will also suit target shooters.

The factory-loaded ammunition is available in a variety of lines including V-Match, Precision Hunter, Match and Superformance.

Its stated performance is very impressive: the Precision Hunter sends an 80gn ELD-X bullet at 1001m/s (3285fps) — comparable with a typical 55gn bullet from a .223!

The Match load is the same but with an ELD-M bullet.

The V-Match fires a 69gn bullet at 1085m/s (3560fps).

The Superformance shoots a 65-grainer at 1116m/s (3660fps). Hornady also offers custom-grade dies and brass for the reloader.

To find out more ask at your local gun shop or visit the OSA Australia website.
