Description

This is the ammunition that made the .22 Nosler a legitimate platform for varmint hunters and precision target shooters. Loaded with Nosler's own premium brass and clean-burning powders, each round is visually inspected before packaging to ensure consistent performance downrange.

The 62-grain flat base hollow point design is the sweet spot for .22 Nosler performance. It delivers enough velocity to take advantage of the cartridge's case capacity while maintaining the accuracy that flat base bullets are known for. The hollow point expands reliably on impact with rapid fragmentation on varmints from prairie dogs out to coyotes. Real-world testing shows these rounds group exceptionally tight at 100 yards with sub-MOA precision achievable in quality rifles.

What makes the .22 Nosler 62gr Varmageddon stand out

The lead-alloy core combined with the copper-alloy jacket is engineered to withstand the higher velocities that the .22 Nosler generates while still fragmenting immediately upon impact. Unlike some varmint loads that need perfect range conditions to work reliably, this ammunition maintains consistent expansion across a range of velocities. The cannelure adds structural integrity without sacrificing the rapid expansion you need for clean, ethical kills.

Reloadable brass and economical performance

Because Nosler makes both the ammunition and the components, there's real synergy in how this round performs. The brass is quality enough to handle multiple reloads, and the overall economics of the 62-grain Varmageddon load make it one of the better values in modern factory varmint ammunition. This matters when you're running high-volume shooting sessions at the range or putting in days pursuing prairie dogs and other varmints.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the .22 Nosler 62gr Varmageddon compare to standard .223 Remington loads?

The .22 Nosler with this 62-grain load pushes bullets approximately 200 feet per second faster than typical .223 Remington factory loads. This extra velocity translates to flatter trajectory, less wind drift, and higher energy retention at distance. The larger case capacity of the .22 Nosler gives it an edge for varmint hunting while maintaining excellent accuracy from the flat base design.

Is this ammunition suitable for both hunting and target practice?

Yes, this load works well for both applications. The precision from the flat base design makes it reliable for range work and load development, while the expanding hollow point performs ethically on varmints. Many owners use the same load for both prairie dog shoots and precision rifle matches.

Can I reload this brass after firing?

Absolutely. Nosler's premium brass is specifically manufactured to handle multiple reloading cycles. Many reload this exact load by adjusting powder charges slightly to dial in velocities for their specific rifles. The cannelure also helps with consistency during the reload process.

What velocities are typical from standard rifle barrels?

Out of an 18-inch barrel, expect around 3100 feet per second. From a 24-inch barrel, Nosler's testing shows approximately 3500 feet per second. Exact velocities depend on barrel length, twist rate, and individual rifle characteristics, which is why working up loads with a chrono is worth your time.
