Solved from this product's advertised 2200 fps, 30gr bullet and G1 BC 0.116, with the sight 1.5" over the bore at standard conditions. Compare every zero for .22 Magnum.
How to read it: filled circles are the near and far zero, where the bullet's path crosses the line of sight;the triangle is the peak (max ordinate). The shaded band is the 4" vital zone, ±2" either side of the line of sight. The dashed line marks the edge of the hold-dead-on window. The chart is zoomed to where the zero matters; the tables below run to 200 yards.

Product Overview
CCI's Varmint 30-grain V-Max is a polymer-tipped .22 Magnum load made for varmints. Under the tip is a thin copper jacket over a lead core. It leaves the muzzle at 2,200 fps with 322 ft-lbs and a G1 BC of .116.
Zeroed at 100 yards, it drops 4.1 inches at 150, and with a 50-yard zero it drops 1.0 inch at 100 yards. Winchester's Varmint HV 30-grain, the fastest start in the caliber at 2,250 fps, drops 4.4 inches at 150 from that 100-yard zero.
If you're cross-shopping, Federal's V-Shok 30-grain Speer TNT starts at the same 2,200 fps with a hollow point on a G1 BC of .090, and by 150 yards it is 167 fps behind. CCI's Maxi-Mag TNT 30-grain is the other hollow point at this speed, on the lowest G1 BC of the caliber's 30-grain bullets.
- No 30-grain load compared holds more speed at 100 yards
- Nothing compared drops less at 150 yards, from either zero
- Still moving at 1,321 fps at 150 yards
- The lead core rules it out where lead-free ammunition is required
- 15 ft-lbs behind Winchester's Varmint HV 30-grain at the muzzle
