If you’re a fan of plinking, small game hunting, or just want reliable rimfire ammo without breaking the bank, Aguila’s Super Extra 22LR High Velocity 40 Grain Copper SP rounds might just become your new go-to. I recently grabbed 2,000 rounds (that’s 8 boxes of 250 rounds each) and here’s the lowdown on why this ammo stands out in the crowded .22LR market.
Why Choose Aguila Super Extra 22LR?
First off, the price is hard to beat — around $0.06 per round or about $15.99 per 250-round box. For anyone who spends a lot of time at the range or needs bulk ammo for target practice, this is a serious value. Aguila has a solid reputation for consistent quality, and this round is no exception. The 40-grain copper-plated hollow point design means you’re getting a high velocity load that performs well in a variety of rifles and pistols.
Performance Out in the Field
Testing this ammo across different platforms—from bolt-action .22s to semi-automatic pistols—yielded reliable feeding and consistent accuracy at typical plinking distances (25-50 yards). The copper-plated bullet helps reduce barrel fouling, which means less cleaning and more shooting time—always a win for outdoors enthusiasts and casual shooters alike.
Perfect for Outdoor Adventures and Training
Whether you’re honing your shooting skills, training a new shooter, or taking out small game, Aguila’s Super Extra 22LR hits the sweet spot between affordability and performance. Its high velocity helps with flatter trajectories, making it easier to stay on target during those long-range shots that outdoor enthusiasts love.
