5000 Rounds of 40gr CPSP 22 LR Ammo by Aguila

This 22 LR cartridge is from Aguila’s Interceptor line of ammunition. Its 40 grain projectile is copper plated in order to save your firearm’s bore from fouling with lead, which would have decreased its accuracy over the course of an extended session of shooting. This bullet’s solid point will not permit it to expand during penetration, but it owes its suitability to varmint hunting to something else altogether.

This round’s bullet comes out of the muzzle at a velocity of 1,470 fps. That conveys excellent accuracy, precisely what you need to group shots together like a bunch of currants in the center of your target. It also means this round exerts 113 ft/lbs of energy at 100 yards out. Expansion or not, that’s enough force to make any plans a varmint has for the rest of its day totally irrelevant.

Aguila pours intense care into the creation of their ammo’s components. That is evident in this round’s propellant, which burns exceptionally clean to preserve your firearm’s sensitive interior. Its casing possesses extremely uniform dimensions so it can feed and eject like a charm, and its rimfire primer is reliable enough to set your watch to.
