Solved from this product's advertised 1910 fps, 40gr bullet and G1 BC 0.117, 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. Dashed line: where the bullet goes subsonic. 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
Remington's Magnum rimfire 40-grain JHP is a jacketed hollow point .22 Magnum load Remington markets for small game. Remington leaves the jacket open at the nose, over a lead core. It leaves the muzzle at 1,910 fps with 324 ft-lbs on a G1 BC of .117.
From a 50-yard zero it drops 1.9 inches at 100 yards and 8.6 inches at 150. CCI's Varmint Maxi-Mag 40-grain JHP starts 35 fps slower and is 37 fps behind at 100 yards.
If you're cross-shopping, Armscor's 40-grain jacketed hollow point starts at 1,875 fps on a G1 BC of .100 and drops 10.0 inches at 150 yards from a 50-yard zero. CCI's Pour Pack 40-grain Maxi Mag Hollow Point is the same load as CCI's Varmint Maxi-Mag.
- Holds 1,355 fps at 100 yards, more than any other 40-grain load compared
- Drops 5.7 inches at 150 yards from a 100-yard zero, the least of the hollow points compared
- The highest G1 BC of the 40-grain hollow points compared
- Carries the same 324 ft-lbs at the muzzle as the caliber's other 1,910 fps 40-grain loads, so its margin is all downrange
- A lead core, so it is out where lead-free ammunition is required
