Winchester Varmint X 17 Hornet Polymer Tip 20 Grain 20 Rounds

The Winchester Varmint X Rifle Ammo 17 Hornet 20 gr Varmint X Polymer Tip delivers a balanced combination of speed, terminal performance and field utility for predator and varmint hunters who need quick, clean results; the 20 grain polymer tip drives at about 3,650 fps and generates roughly 592 ft?lbs of muzzle energy, giving sufficient downrange velocity for long prairie dog shots and reliable lethality on coyotes while minimizing pelt damage when controlled expansion is desired. This Varmint X series load uses a polymer tip to maintain a sleek ballistic profile and promote rapid expansion on impact, an alloy jacket with an engineered sidewall profile that encourages controlled fragmentation, and a lead core tuned to break up on small game for fast knockdown. The cartridge ships in brass cases made in the United States, offering consistent ignition and extraction, and the round is ideal for bolt actions and lightweight rifles that benefit from the 17 Hornet's flat trajectory and reduced recoil. If you hunt open country, run predator control or need a dedicated varmint load that pairs high velocity with reliable terminal effects, this Winchester Varmint X round answers those needs.
