The Hornady V-Max 20 Caliber 32 Grain (22004) is a polymer tipped varmint bullet designed for explosive fragmentation and exceptional accuracy at extreme velocities. This specialized bullet combines a streamlined profile with a unique tip and cavity design for devastating terminal performance on prairie dogs ground squirrels and other small varmints at long range.
Key Features
- Model 22004 for 20 caliber (.204 diameter)
- 32 grain polymer tipped flat base bullet
- G1 ballistic coefficient 0.210
- Sectional density 0.110
- Minimum expansion velocity 1600 fps

Special Features
- Polymer tip with hollow cavity between shaft and bullet body creates violent fragmentation upon impact
- Hard polymer shaft builds speed and energy before driving into core for rapid expansion
- Swaged lead core formed precisely around tip shaft for consistent energy transfer
- Streamlined secant ogive profile for a high ballistic coefficient
- Match grade AMP bullet jacket provides superior concentricity for accuracy at all ranges
- Explosive fragmentation occurs even at terminal velocities as low as 1600 fps
Practical Benefits
- Essential for reloaders developing extreme long range varmint loads for 204 Ruger and 20 caliber wildcats
- Produces ammunition capable of devastating terminal performance on prairie dogs and ground squirrels to 400 yards
- Works effectively at ultra high velocities typical of 204 Ruger without jacket failure
- Delivers flat trajectories and minimal wind drift for precise shot placement at extended range
- Lighter weight allows higher velocities and flatter trajectories than heavier bullets in same cartridge
- Ideal for serious varmint hunters and precision shooters using 204 Ruger bolt action rifles
The Hornady 22004 V-Max 20 Caliber 32 Grain is a capable tool for reloaders seeking maximum velocity and explosive terminal performance in high velocity 20 caliber varmint cartridges.
