The Sierra Varminter 22 Hornet 45 Grain JSP bullets deliver purpose-built performance for handloaders working with classic varmint cartridges. These .223-diameter projectiles pair a thin-walled jacket with a soft core and traditional round-nose profile, engineered to shoot accurately and expand reliably on small game and varmints at the velocities these cartridges naturally deliver. Whether you're loading for a .22 Hornet, .22 K-Hornet, .218 Bee, .222, or .222 Remington, this 45-grain bullet is sized and weighted for the ballistic envelope those rounds produce—typically between 2600 and 2900 feet per second—and works best in barrels with a 1×16-inch twist rate.
Varmint hunting and predator control demand bullets that fly true and perform on impact, and Sierra's Varminter line has earned respect among reloaders for doing exactly that. The round-nose geometry aids stability in shorter barrels and tight-twist rifling, while the soft core ensures energy transfer without excessive material waste. A box of 100 gives you enough rounds to test loads, sight in, and put in work without the downtime of frequent component reorders.
If you're already committed to handloading for vintage or specialized varmint cartridges, Sierra Varminter bullets offer the consistency and terminal performance that separates a good reload from a great one. Pairing them with quality brass, powder, and primers is the foundation of accurate, reliable ammunition you can depend on in the field.

Sierra Varminter 45-grain bullets are designed for .22 Hornet, .22 K-Hornet, .218 Bee, .222, and .222 Remington. They perform best at the muzzle velocities these cartridges naturally produce, between 2600 and 2900 feet per second.
These bullets are optimized for barrels with a 1×16-inch twist rate. The relatively short, round-nose profile ensures proper stability in that twist, particularly important for older or specialty rifles chambered in these cartridges.
Yes. The thin-walled jacket and soft core are engineered for reliable expansion on small varmints and predators, making them effective for varmint hunting and predator control applications.
Each box contains 100 bullets, providing a practical quantity for handloaders to test loads, sight in, and accumulate enough ammunition for extended shooting sessions.
