Hornady Match bullets in 22 caliber, .224 diameter, 75 grains hollow point boat tail (Hornady part no. 2279), step up in weight from Hornady’s 68-grain .22-caliber Match load, using the same AMP (Advanced Manufacturing Process) bullet jacket for highly consistent, concentric jackets shot after shot. Precision-swaged cores manufactured to tight industry tolerances combine with a secant ogive profile for optimum bearing surface and in-flight stability, while the boat tail’s angle and length are optimized specifically for this caliber and weight to maximize ballistic coefficient. Long-range .22-caliber competitors who want the heavier-for-caliber option in Hornady’s Match line get better wind resistance and retained velocity from the extra 7 grains over the 68-grain load.
