Barnes Varmint Grenade Rifle Bullets .22 cal .224" 50 gr VGFB 250/ct

Barnes Varmint Grenade Rifle Bullets in .22 caliber (.224" diameter, 50 grain) deliver controlled fragmentation on impact, making them a specialized choice for precision varmint and small-game hunting. Packaged at 250 rounds per box, these copper-tin composite construction bullets are engineered to fragment reliably upon target contact while minimizing pelt damage—a critical advantage for hunters who process pelts for resale or preservation.

The 50-grain projectile weight in .22 caliber balances velocity and controllability for precision shooting at typical varmint ranges. Barnes' copper-tin composite core construction provides consistent expansion characteristics and improved accuracy over traditional lead-core designs. The VGFB (Varmint Grenade Fragmenting Bullet) designation indicates the specific fragmentation profile: on-target breakup eliminates exit wounds, preserving hide integrity—essential for maintaining pelts in marketable condition. Each round is loaded to consistent specifications for repeatability across the 250-count box.

This ammunition suits serious .22 rifle shooters focused on varmint control, predator management, and small-game hunting where shot placement and pelt preservation matter. Reloaders and high-volume shooters benefit from the 250-round box format, reducing per-round cost compared to smaller packaging. The consistent ballistics make these bullets suitable for both factory-loaded ammunition shooters and those assembling their own cartridges with appropriate .22 rifle brass and powders.

Barnes Bullets maintains a strong reputation in the hunting and precision shooting market for ammunition engineering focused on terminal performance. The Varmint Grenade line represents the company's specialization in fragmenting projectile design for ethical, efficient small-game harvesting.
