Norma TipStrike 22 Cal (.224) 55gr – 100 ct box

The Norma TipStrike cal 55gr is a 22 caliber (.224 inch) polymer tipped hunting bullet sold 100 to the box, engineered for fast expansion and a hard stop. At 55 grains it is a light, high velocity projectile that suits the many 22 caliber rifles used on varmints and predators. The polymer tip drives reliable expansion while the reinforced jacket keeps the bullet intact for penetration. For handloaders who run a 223 or similar 22 caliber round on game, this bullet is built to end the encounter quickly.

What the Norma TipStrike cal 55gr Is and Who It Is For

This is a 55 grain, .224 inch reloading bullet for the 22 caliber family, not loaded ammunition. TipStrike was developed for stopping power combined with penetration deep enough to reach the vital organs of game, and the light 55 grain weight leans hard into speed. The polymer tip assures expansion and delivers a devastating shock effect thanks to how the jacket is constructed. A mechanical lock reinforces that jacket to maintain high retention weight, keeping the projectile together as it drives in. It is an outstanding choice for driven hunts, predator work, and any situation where an immediate stop is crucial.

On coyotes and other predators, a light, fast 22 caliber bullet that expands violently can be the difference between a clean anchor and a lost animal. The 55 grain TipStrike is built for exactly that, pairing high velocity with a polymer tip that drives quick, reliable expansion.

Because you load these yourself, you can dial the round to your rifle and your quarry. Tune the charge for the speed your barrel likes, set seating depth for reliable feeding, and keep your crimp consistent for uniform ignition.

Predator hunters who burn through ammunition on called stands will appreciate the bulk savings. Load a big batch, keep it organized, and you are ready whenever the coyotes are talking.

Specifications Woven Into the Load

Each bullet weighs 55 grains and measures .224 inch, the standard diameter for the 223 Remington, 22-250, and the wider 22 caliber world. A single box holds 100 bullets, and buying 10 boxes drops the price by 10 percent for shooters who go through them fast. The polymer tip resists feed damage while starting expansion on contact, and the reinforced jacket manages how the 55 grain mass performs. Because terminal effect tracks velocity, work up from published 22 caliber data and verify your speed with a chronograph. That confirms your TipStrike load lands inside the expansion window it was designed for.
