The .22 Hornet is one of the most practical calibers for anyone looking to stretch beyond .22 rimfire without jumping into the noise and recoil of larger centerfire options. Winchester's Super-X loading keeps that classic appeal intact with a 46-grain jacketed hollow point that's built to expand reliably on varmints and predators.
This isn't a screaming-fast cartridge, and that's part of its charm. At 2690 feet per second, the round stays subsonic in character while packing enough punch for coyotes, foxes, groundhogs, prairie dogs, and other medium-sized varmints at ranges under 150 yards. The mild recoil and low report make it equally at home hunting on farms where noise matters as it is in your own backyard pest control work.
The 46-grain bullet features a rearward weight distribution that helps maintain accuracy throughout its flight, while the hollow point cavity promotes rapid expansion on impact. You get the terminal performance you need without unnecessary meat damage on edible game like rabbits and squirrels. The brass cases are boxer-primed and fully reloadable if you want to stretch your ammunition dollar over the long haul.
If you own a Winchester Model 43 or any other vintage .22 Hornet rifle, this ammo will cycle reliably without pushing pressures in older chambers. Modern rifles chamber it just as comfortably, giving you ammunition that works across decades of hardware. The consistent quality Winchester is known for means you'll get the same ballistics from round to round, shot to shot, which matters when accuracy and reliability matter to you.
The .22 Hornet works best at ranges under 150 yards where it delivers consistent, predictable performance on varmints and small game. Beyond that distance, wind drift and drop become more of a consideration. The cartridge really shines when used for close-to-medium range hunting where you can place accurate shots rather than relying on flat trajectory.
Yes. This ammunition is loaded to safe pressures that won't stress vintage firearms like the Winchester Model 43 while still delivering its advertised ballistics in modern rifles. If you own a classic .22 Hornet rifle, it will handle this ammo reliably without any concerns about chamber pressures.
Absolutely. The brass cases are boxer-primed and designed for reloading, which makes this ammunition economical if you reload your own rounds. Many shooters find hand-loaded .22 Hornet loads to be both more precise and cost-effective compared to buying factory ammunition repeatedly.
The 46-grain hollow point sits at the heavier end of common .22 Hornet offerings, making it a good choice for varmints where you want reliable expansion without excessive velocity demands on older rifles. Lighter bullets will give you a bit more speed and flatter trajectory, while heavier loads tend to group tighter in some rifles. The best choice depends on your specific rifle and what you're hunting.
