3250 Rounds of 36gr LHP .22 LR Ammo by Federal

The 22 LR isn’t the weakest cartridge on the planet, but it’s pretty far from the most powerful. That’s not a shortcoming. It’s an advantage. When a cartridge is that small, you can easily invest in a few thousand of them and still have enough money left over for other important things, such as firearms.

This Champion series cartridge by Federal Premium is good for pretty much anything you could want to do with a rimfire pistol or rifle. At 36 grains, its bullet is able to attain a muzzle velocity that is well above the speed of sound without generating abnormal chamber pressure in the process. That gives the lead hollow point a satisfyingly flat trajectory. If you choose to test that trajectory out on a varmint, you’ll treat the poor critter to deadly terminal expansion. If you only direct that trajectory toward stationary targets, you’ll appreciate Federal’s consistent accuracy.

Anoka, MN is the Halloween Capital of the World, but it is also where Federal produces their rimfire ammo. This case of brass-cased and noncorrosive ammo is divided among 10 individual boxes.
