The Winchester Super X 22-250 Remington ammo loads a 64-grain Power-Point jacketed soft point at 3500 fps, delivering 1741 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. Designed for varmint and medium game hunting, this round balances high velocity with controlled expansion. The 22-250 Remington is a centerfire rifle cartridge known for flat trajectory and minimal wind drift inside 300 yards — well-suited for open terrain and stationary targets. Winchester’s Power-Point bullet uses strategically-placed jacket notches to initiate upset on impact, ensuring the bullet expands uniformly without over-fragmenting on light-bodied game.
Performance at a Glance
Winchester chambers this load in boxer-primed brass cases, allowing for field reloading when components and equipment are available. The 64-grain projectile carries a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.251 — modest by match standards, but sufficient for hunting applications inside 400 yards. At 3500 fps from the muzzle, the round remains supersonic well beyond typical varmint engagement ranges. The jacketed soft point construction retains enough weight to penetrate light cover while expanding reliably on fur and hide.
