223 REM WINCHESTER VARMINT X 40 GRAIN POLYMER TIP (200 ROUNDS)

About This Winchester 223 Remington Ammunition

This 223 Rem ammunition by Winchester is so effective at bagging small game that you might want to send them a notarized letter warning of your arrival. Seems only fair when you’re hunting with the power of Varmint X!

This cartridge’s bullet weighs a paltry 40 grains. Its muzzle velocity is supercharged to 3,600 fps as the result, which means you’re looking at a trajectory that only has to rise by 2.7” when you’re zeroed in at 200 yards. The bullet’s relatively low 0.204 G1 ballistic coefficient does mean it loses momentum faster than a heavier bullet, but you couldn’t ask for a flatter trajectory when you’re dealing with varmints within a few hundred yards of your location.

The bullet’s polymer tip doesn’t just create an aerodynamic meplat. It’s designed to slam into its thin underlying jacket and lead core on impact, turning both into shrapnel that scatters outward in every direction. Know what you call a varmint that gets hit with such a bullet? Dead.

Winchester loads these rodent slayers in the USA with fine brass cases, dependable Boxer primers and clean-burning powder. Free shipping when you order the whole case – can’t beat that!
