Hornady V-Max bullets in 6.8mm .277 diameter at 110 grains with cannelure (22721) are a precision-engineered varmint and predator component bullet built for reloaders running 6.8mm and .270 caliber rifle platforms who demand explosive terminal performance at all ranges. Designed as a flat-shooting 6.8mm varmint reloading bullet compatible with cartridges like the 6.8 SPC and .270 Winchester, this 100-count box delivers the consistent quality and match-grade accuracy that serious handloaders depend on.

- Application: Varmint and predator hunting
Special Features
- The polymer tip rests over a hollow cavity between the tip shaft and the bullet body, driving into the core on impact and triggering rapid jacket-core fragmentation even at lower terminal velocities down to 1,600 fps.
- Hornady swages the lead core precisely up and around the tip stem, forming a cavity that stores and releases energy on impact for consistent, dramatic fragmentation shot to shot.
- The AMP match-grade jacket is produced to tight concentricity tolerances, delivering the uniform wall thickness needed for tight groups at extended distances.
- A G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.370 gives this 110-grain bullet strong aerodynamic efficiency, helping it resist wind drift and hold velocity downrange better than lower-BC alternatives in the same weight class.
- The cannelure provides a positive crimp groove for reloaders working with semi-automatic platforms or cartridges where bullet pull under feeding pressure is a concern, adding a layer of load integrity not found on standard V-Max bullets.
Practical Benefits
- These bullets are compatible with 6.8mm and .270 caliber cartridges including the 6.8 SPC, 6.8 SPC II, and .270 Winchester, giving you one proven component that crosses multiple rifle platforms.
- The 110-grain weight hits a practical balance point for 6.8mm cartridges, generating the velocity needed for flat trajectories while retaining enough mass for clean terminal performance on predators and medium varmints at field distances.
- The cannelure makes these bullets a smart fit for AR-platform builds chambered in 6.8 SPC, where reliable crimp engagement keeps loads consistent under the mechanical stress of semi-automatic feeding.
- The 100-count box gives you enough bullets to develop a load, confirm accuracy across multiple charge weights, and stock proven components for a full season of hunting or training.
- If you reload for a 6.8mm or .270 caliber rifle and want a component that bridges varmint performance and predator hunting capability, the Hornady V-Max with cannelure (22721) gives your handloads the terminal reliability and feeding confidence your rifle setup demands.
The Hornady V-Max 6.8mm .277 110 Grain with Cannelure (22721) is a smart addition for the dedicated reloader and predator hunter looking for a capable tool in the 6.8mm and .270 caliber bullet category.
