Hornady V-MAX 6mm (.243) 87 grain polymer-tip boat-tail bullets are engineered for varmint and precision shooting applications that benefit from flat trajectories and consistent performance. The polymer tip and streamlined profile raise the ballistic coefficient and help initiate controlled expansion. Each bullet uses a copper jacket swaged over a lead core to provide consistent concentricity and in-flight stability. These bullets are packaged for standard retail and bulk reloading use.
Packaging: Sold per box containing 100 bullets. Cases are available by ordering multiples of boxes; a full case contains 25 boxes (a total of 2,500 bullets); case quantities are achieved by ordering the required number of boxes.
