50 Rounds of 40gr LRN .22 LR Ammo by Federal American Eagle

The .22LR is ideal for teaching new shooters thanks to its minimal recoil and quiet report. New shooters benefit greatly from how easy it is to use, and the fact that it’s fun to shoot is great, too. Whether you’re teaching a child or an adult the .22LR is a great caliber choice. Just remember to take the time to teach your new shooter the golden rules before they even touch the gun: 1) Never point the gun at anything you’re not willing to destroy, 2) Treat every gun as if it’s loaded, 3) Keep your finger off the trigger until you’re on target, and 4) Be sure of your target and what is beyond it. The golden rules are an important foundation for all shooters and deeply ingraining them in your student is the most valuable lesson you’ll ever teach them.

Something else you need for teaching is ammunition. At 40 grain these are considered lightweight rounds and they’re definitely light enough to fly towards your target with lightning-quickness. They’re LRN rounds and their lead noses can deform slightly on impact but these rounds should not be confused with HPs. Each round leaves the barrel of the gun at a muzzle velocity of 1200 feet per second and strikes targets with a muzzle energy of 128 foot-pounds. This ammunition is best for target practice, shooting drills, and those days all you want to do is put holes in pop cans and apples.

You get 50 target rounds in this box of ammunition from Federal. That’s enough to give your gun a little snack and get a training session in with your new student; if you want more extensive time you’re going to want to order more than one box. This ammunition is manufactured by Federal at their longtime plant in Anoka, Minnesota, where all ammunition goes through extensive testing and strict quality control measures. Federal has almost 100 years of experience manufacturing ammunition and their dedication is clear in the reliable performance and exceptional quality of these target rounds.
