Federal Varmint and Predator .223 Remington V Max 53 Grain 20 Rounds

The Federal Varmint & Predator Rifle Ammo in .223 Remington 53 gr V-Max offers hunters and range shooters a go-to load from the Power-Shok Varmint & Predator line that blends pinpoint accuracy and aggressive terminal performance for prairie dogs, ground squirrels, foxes and coyotes; the Hornady V-Max polymer-tipped bullet delivers explosive expansion on impact while retaining a flat trajectory at the listed muzzle velocity of about 3400 fps and muzzle energy around 1360 ftlbs, making follow-up shots and long-range varmint work more confident, and the brass casing and Federal primers are known for reliable ignition and consistent velocities important for high-volume sighting-in and wind-bucking Varmint disciplines; if you run a compact AR or bolt-action chambered in .223 Rem, this 53-grain V-Max load is tuned for controlled expansion at typical varmint distances, economical enough to practice accuracy drills without sacrificing terminal effectiveness in the field, and its Yellow-tipped V-Max profile is easy to identify in a packed range bag.
