For prairie dog towns, coyote stands, and high-volume groundhog control, the Remington Premier Varmint 22-250 Remington 50-grain AccuTip polymer tip delivers match-grade accuracy with violent terminal performance. The 22-250 varmint ammo pushes a gold-tipped projectile to 3800 feet per second, generating 1603 foot-pounds of muzzle energy — enough to anchor coyotes at 300 yards and vaporize rockchucks on contact. Remington’s AccuTip bullet uses a polymer tip that acts as a ballistic wedge: on impact, the tip drives rearward into the lead core, initiating rapid fragmentation of the thin copper jacket. You get explosive energy dump with minimal pelt damage on fur-bearers and instant anchoring on burrowing varmints.
Built for the Box
Remington loads the Premier Varmint line in new brass cases with non-corrosive Boxer primers, making every round reloadable for handloaders chasing precision nodes. The 50-grain AccuTip bullet carries a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.242 and sectional density of 0.142 — modest numbers that still deliver a flat trajectory inside 400 yards, where most varmint work happens. At 3800 fps from a 24-inch barrel, you’ll see roughly 10 inches of drop at 300 yards with a 200-yard zero, minimal wind drift in prairie crosswinds, and enough retained energy to ensure clean kills on coyotes and bobcats. The polymer tip maintains consistent BC across the entire flight path, unlike hollow-point designs that can deform under high velocity.
