Designed to deliver excellent accuracy and explosive performance, Hornady says that the 223 WSSM Superformance Varmint \u201cdelivers muzzle velocity increases of 100 to 200 feet per second from EVERY gun.\u201d That will give you more range, a flatter trajectory, reduced wind drift and excellent terminal performance when you\u2019re on the hunt for varmints. You can even use it in semi-autos. All those claims also apply to the new 75-grain V-MAX Superformance Varmint load for .243 Winchester Super Short Magnum, aka 243 WSSM.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"838\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-1024x838.jpg\" alt=\"400 legend hornady\" class=\"wp-image-298900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-1024x838.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-300x245.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-768x628.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-150x123.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-696x569.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-1068x874.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-513x420.jpg 513w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"838\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-1024x838.jpg\" alt=\"400 legend hornady\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-298900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-1024x838.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-300x245.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-768x628.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-150x123.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-696x569.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-1068x874.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady-513x420.jpg 513w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/400-legend-hornady.jpg 1100w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">.400 Legend.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For taking game that\u2019s a bit bigger than varmints, Hornady also introduced a new 210-grain InterLock American Whitetail load for .400 Legend. This was designed to be versatile, capable of delivering hard-hitting performance at extended ranges for the caliber and compatible with both bolt-action and AR-style rifles.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of new ammunition, Hornady also announced a reloading tool called the One Shot Spray Bar. Offered in small rifle\/ARC and large rifle\/magnum sizes, the bars hold 25 cases at a time so you can lubricate them evenly and quickly.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hornady.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hornady.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong>More On Rifle Ammo:<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-27\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"border: 2px solid #e5e5e5; padding: 20px; border-radius: 10px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-271572\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/44-Targetposters-pack-GD-reduced-300-300x235.jpg\" alt=\"44-Targetposters-pack-GD-reduced-300\" width=\"300\" height=\"235\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignright size-medium wp-image-271572\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/44-Targetposters-pack-GD-reduced-300-300x235.jpg\" alt=\"44-Targetposters-pack-GD-reduced-300\" width=\"300\" height=\"235\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"color: #333; text-align: center;\">Next Step: Get your FREE Printable Target Pack<\/h2>\n<p>Enhance your shooting precision with our 62 MOA Targets, perfect for rifles and handguns.
