Hornady 22 ARC Named Ammunition of the Year

(Grand Island, Nebr.) — The Hornady® 22 ARC (Advanced Rifle Cartridge) has been named the 2024 Ammunition of the Year by the Guns & Ammo of the Year Awards.

“The 22 ARC took the 22-caliber world by storm in 2024,” said Neil Davies, Hornady Marketing Director. “This little hotrod is a perfect fit for long-range target shooters and varmint hunters alike. We appreciate the recognition from Guns & Ammo,” he added.

The 22 ARC brings exceptional power and performance, elegantly packed into a compact cartridge that fits into your AR-15 but is equally at home in a bolt action. By utilizing the new 62 gr. ELD-VT™ bullet, the 22 ARC brings extraordinary performance, that rivals the 22-250, to the AR-15 platform.

Designing the cartridge and chamber in unison provides consistent accuracy, great velocity spreads and an outstanding shooting experience. This cartridge is the result of careful and meticulous design, following the same proven methodology as the highly acclaimed 6mm ARC.

The 22 ARC is available in the following options:

·22 ARC 62 gr ELD-VT™ V-Match™

·22 ARC 70 gr CX™ Superformance®

·22 ARC 75 gr ELD® Match Black™

·22 ARC 80 gr ELD-X® Precision Hunter®

·22 ARC 88 gr ELD® Match
