The Federal Power-Shok .222 Remington 50gr Jacketed Soft Point load (Federal part no. 222A) gives owners of this classic varmint cartridge a straightforward, affordable hunting round. Federal builds Power-Shok around traditional lead-core hunting bullets backed by brass, primers and propellant it describes as reliable. The 50-grain bullet leaves the muzzle at 3140 fps, a flat-shooting speed that suits small game and varmint work. Each box holds 20 rounds, enough for a sight-in session with a few left over for the field.
