This round is made in Belgium by the same outfit that invented the 5.7x28mm, and it’s equipped with Hornady’s 40 grain V-MAX. The bullet’s accuracy is suited for competitive shooting, as it features not only a streamlined profile, balanced swaged lead core, and concentric jacket, but also a sharp polymer tip. Such a tip also reduces the chances of a ricochet, and further amplifies the V-MAX’s terminal performance.
When the V-MAX connects with a soft target, its tip jams into the precisely formed hollow within its core. It generates great energy as it does so, releasing all of it when it connects at the base of the hollow. At that point the V-MAX instantaneously fragments outward, creating a disastrous wound cavity. Coyotes are not volunteering to get shot by V-MAX bullets.
This round’s factory fresh FN brass makes it a handloader’s dream, and its primer and propellant consistently yield a breakneck 2,034 fps muzzle velocity. Don’t wait until fine 5.7x28mm ammo becomes a scarcity — order your case today!
