.22 Magnum Trajectory Calculator

The .22 Magnum brings a significant step up in performance over standard rimfire options. These default settings show a 39-grain bullet with a .116 ballistic coefficient moving at 2,200 fps. When zeroed at 100 yards, this setup delivers the kind of accuracy and terminal performance that has made the .22 Magnum popular for everything from small game hunting to varmint control.

While these baseline numbers reflect typical performance, individual rifles and ammunition combinations can vary. Our calculator allows you to account for all the variables that matter in the field. Whether you're dealing with crosswinds that can affect these lighter bullets, compensating for shooting angles, or adjusting for atmospheric conditions, you can input your specific parameters to get precise trajectory data.

The trajectory chart and table below break down this round's performance in 10-yard increments out to 200 yards, giving you a detailed look at bullet drop and energy retention. Want to see how your particular load performs? Just click the Modify Calculation button and input your specific data. From wind speed to shooting angle, you can customize every variable to match your exact shooting scenario.
