HRNDY SF 22CM 65GR CX 20/200

Description

Hornady’s Superformance line was built for hunters who need to stretch their effective range without stepping up to a heavier, slower cartridge. In .22 Creedmoor, the 65-grain CX bullet is a sound choice for medium game and varmints where a flat trajectory and controlled terminal expansion both matter — the CX is a monolithic copper alloy design with a polymer tip, meaning it holds together at close range while still expanding reliably at distance, without the core-jacket separation you can get from conventional cup-and-core bullets.

The Superformance propellant blend is what separates this load from standard factory ammunition. Hornady engineers the powder charge specifically to extract more velocity than a conventional propellant can produce in the same case volume, which translates to a flatter arc and more retained energy at the end of the flight path. That extra speed comes without a corresponding increase in felt recoil or pressure signs that would stress brass, so the cases remain reloadable. The 65-grain weight sits on the lighter end of what the .22 Creedmoor is commonly loaded with, which keeps the bullet moving fast enough to make the most of the Superformance chemistry. Twenty rounds per box suits a hunt where you’re carrying weight, and the brass casing makes spent cases worth keeping if you reload.
