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 Varmint Tipped is a polymer-tipped .22 Magnum load made for varmints. At 30 grains CCI's VNT puts a polymer tip over a thin jacket. It leaves the muzzle at 2,200 fps with 322 ft-lbs and a G1 BC of .116.
From a 100-yard zero it drops 4.1 inches at 150 yards, and no 30-grain load compared drops less. In a 10 mph crosswind at 100 yards it moves 4.5 inches, about an inch less than Hornady's Varmint Express 30-grain.
If you're cross-shopping, CCI's Maxi-Mag TNT 30-grain leaves at the same 2,200 fps with a hollow point on a G1 BC of .088, and by 100 yards it is 166 fps behind. CCI's Varmint 30-grain V-Max matches this load's speed, drop and wind on the same G1 BC.
- Holds 1,571 fps at 100 yards, as much as any 30-grain load compared
- Keeps 1,321 fps at 150 yards, where Hornady's Varmint Express 30-grain is down to 1,188
- No 30-grain bullet in the caliber carries a higher G1 BC
- A lead core under the tip, so it is out where lead-free ammunition is required
- Winchester's Varmint HV 30-grain starts 50 fps faster
