224 Weatherby Magnum

224 Weatherby Magnum

$79.00 – $94.00

These bullet offerings are optimized for both the new 1:8 twist Mark V Deluxe Varmintmaster and the original 1:14 twist Varmintmaster!

The .224 Weatherby Magnum is one of the fastest .22 caliber cartridges ever released in a factory rifle. Originally introduced by Roy Weatherby in 1964, this high-velocity round was designed to push the limits of varmint and predator hunting, offering unmatched downrange energy and precision. There is no true parent case as Roy developed this one from the ground up. Capable of exceeding 4,125 feet per second with factory loads, the .224 Weatherby Magnum maintains a trajectory that defies gravity, making it an excellent choice for long-range shots on coyotes, prairie dogs, and other small game.

Bullet Information

Hammer Custom

Hammer Custom

Hammer Bulletsโ„ข are turned on a CNC lathe and use a unique solid copper blend that is designed for maximum terminal performance. Each bullet is weighed and micrometer measured as it is produced. The result is an incredibly consistent product with unparalleled quality control. The hollow point design, initiates expansion upon impact, shedding petals immediately, with the remainder of the bullet staying intact with a blunt front for optimal wound channel. All Hammer Custom Bullets are designed to optimize Weatherbyโ€™s flat shooting cartridges.

  • Common Reference – 22 Caliber
  • Bullet Diameter – .224" (5.7mm)
  • Bullet Weight – 37 gr.
  • B/C (G1) – .170
