This is FN 5.7x28mm SS197SR ammo with a 40-grain Hornady V-Max bullet.

The V-Max bullet is the industry’s leading varmint bullet with a polymer tip and streamlined design that results in flat trajectories. The concentricity of the match grade AMP® bullet jacket provides maximum accuracy at all ranges as well as explosive expansion.

POLYMER TIP

The secret to the explosive terminal performance of the V-Max^® is a hollow cavity resting between the tip’s shaft and the body of the bullet. Upon impact, the hard shaft builds up speed and energy before driving into the core, causing the entire package to rapidly expand to the point of violent fragmentation, even at low terminal velocities.

HIGHER BALLISTIC COEFFICIENT

Hornady^® combines the sharp, pointed polymer tip with the most aerodynamic profile for a high ballistic coefficient. The V-MAX^® profile also provides the maximum bearing surface for added in-flight stability.

SWAGED LEAD CORE

The swaging process allows precise formation of the core up and around the tip, with a cavity under the tip’s stem. This allows the tip to build up energy before smashing into the core, causing dramatic fragmentation of the core and jacket.

PRECISE BOATTAIL & FLATBASE DESIGNS

Utilizing the proper base design provides incredible in-flight stability for long-range shooting.
