Hyperformance Hunt

Fiocchi has added another specialized cartridge to its growing line of dedicated hunting ammo, with Fiocchi Hyperformance Hunt.223 Remington, designed for "lights out" performance on varmints. What separates the Hyperformance Hunt .223 Remington from other similar ammunition is its lead-free hollow-point projectile—part of Fiocchi's EnviroShield initiative.

The Hyperformance Hunt .223 Remington features the Barnes Varmint Grenade bullet. Based on a frangible copper-tin powdered metal core surrounded by a hollow point gilding metal jacket, the Varmint Grenade is designed to fragment quickly while delivering all impact energy into the target. The result is devastating terminal performance that sometimes leaves pelts relatively undamaged, as the bullet rarely exits larger animals.

New Hyperformance Hunt .223 Remington joins a deep bench of Hyperformance Hunt centerfire rifle calibers, including .243 Winchester, .260 Remington, 6.5 Creedmoor, .270 Winchester, 7mm-08, .300 Blackout, .308 Winchester, .30-'06 Springfield. and .300 Winchester Magnum.
