Hornady just announced some mid-year new products, including loads for .223 WSSM, .243 WSSM and .400 Legend.
Hornady seems to be constantly expanding its catalog with new products, and the company just added a few more interesting items in this mid-2025 announcement. Namely, three new loads that will catch the eyes of those who hunt or compete with the calibers in question.
Firstly, a new 55-grain V-MAX Superformance Varmint load for .223 Winchester Super Short Magnum, aka 223 WSSM. Designed to deliver excellent accuracy and explosive performance, Hornady says that the 223 WSSM Superformance Varmint “delivers muzzle velocity increases of 100 to 200 feet per second from EVERY gun.” That will give you more range, a flatter trajectory, reduced wind drift and excellent terminal performance when you’re on the hunt for varmints. You can even use it in semi-autos. All those claims also apply to the new 75-grain V-MAX Superformance Varmint load for .243 Winchester Super Short Magnum, aka 243 WSSM.
For taking game that’s a bit bigger than varmints, Hornady also introduced a new 210-grain InterLock American Whitetail load for .400 Legend. This was designed to be versatile, capable of delivering hard-hitting performance at extended ranges for the caliber and compatible with both bolt-action and AR-style rifles.
Outside of new ammunition, Hornady also announced a reloading tool called the One Shot Spray Bar. Offered in small rifle/ARC and large rifle/magnum sizes, the bars hold 25 cases at a time so you can lubricate them evenly and quickly.
