The Hornady 75gr 22 Caliber Match BTHP Bullets with Cannelure (Hornady part no. 2279C) are match-grade bullets built for the precision and consistency competitive and long-range shooters demand, sold as component bullets for handloaders who seat their own 22 Caliber ammunition. Made by Hornady, each bullet in this box has a boat-tail hollow-point profile weighing 75 grains, giving handloaders a consistent, known component to build load data around instead of guessing at a factory round’s internals. Reloaders running 22 Caliber through a press for practice, competition, or precision work choose bullets like these to control cost per round while keeping quality consistent case to case. Like other open-tip match bullets, it’s built for paper-target precision rather than controlled expansion on game.

Key Specifications

• 22 Caliber is the caliber/diameter this bullet is sized for.
• 75 grains is the bullet weight, a starting point for matching published load data.
• Boat-tail hollow-point profile defines how the bullet is constructed and how it behaves at the muzzle and in flight.
• Cannelure (crimp groove) gives a case mouth crimp a positive groove to bite into, useful for magazine-fed semi-auto loads.
• 4000 bullets per box is the component count in this listing, not a loaded-ammunition quantity.
• Match-grade positioning: built to the tighter tolerances competitive and long-range shooters rely on for repeatable accuracy.
• Copper-alloy jacket over a lead core is the standard construction for this bullet type.
• Consistent bullet-to-bullet weight and dimensions support predictable, repeatable trajectories load to load.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is this bullet designed for? A match-grade bullet built for the precision and consistency competitive and long-range shooters demand.
