Built for Short Barreled Hunts

The Blackout earns its keep in handy rifles, and the published per barrel velocities let you zero around what your gun actually does. Hogs and varmints inside 300 yards are exactly this load's job: violent expansion from the polymer tipped V-Max, delivered from an AR you can carry all day.

Before Opening Day

Zero with this exact load from your hunting barrel, then check your state's current caliber and projectile regulations. Straight wall rules, projectile requirements, and seasons vary. Practice cheap with the 150gr FMJ trainer and save the V-Max pack for zeroing and the hunt.
