55 gr Norma Oryx bullet for my Sako rifle great accuracy. Shot multiple pigs 100 yards to 150 yards, complete pass thru front shoulders. Great product.

I ordered Remington .222 Magnum – Hornady 50 grain V-Max from Hendershots in early April. I received the order the last week of April. This is a hard caliber to find and it’s amazing it took so little time. I can hardly wait to try it at the range. I will certainly be back in the near future.
Thank you Hendershots….

I ordered three boxes of 55 grain Oryx ammunition. Came in faster than I expected. I plan to use it on coyotes and other predators. I’ve been using this older Remington rifle for years as a coyote gun and have had so many one shot kills that I’ve been extremely happy. 222 ammo is getting harder to find in my area so I searched the web and found your site. I was impressed with the things I read and decided to give you a shot ( No Pun Intended ) . As I have just today received them I can assure you I’ll be using them tomorrow. I’ve taken several deer with this old 222 and quite a few turkeys. All have been one shot kills. With this newer ammo I’m not sure i can improve on that but I’m more interested in trying it out and seeing just how much better they will be. From what I’ve read I’ll find out. Again I’m very impressed with your service and how fast I received my order. That always means a lot to us who don’t live in areas where we have access to big sporting goods stores. I’d be happy to give you another report on how well they preform.

I looked to Hendershots to load some non-lead rounds for my .222 turkey rifle in preperation for Maryland’s proposed lead ban. I was concerned I would not find such a product in this caliber as even lead .222 is difficult. Looking forward to trying them out this fall. Previously used a Hendershots Vmax load which was great.
