100 Rounds of 40gr LRN .22 LR Ammo by Federal

Guns chambered in .22LR are popular for a number of reasons from their almost nonexistent recoil to their quiet report to their affordable cost, and if you have one you know you need quite a bit of ammunition for it. There’s just not much more fun than a day spent plinking with your .22LR, punching holes in pop cans and puncturing paper, and it requires a lot of ammunition. Of course, there’s more to .22LR than just plinking. It’s a great round for teaching brand new shooters about guns and can also be used to deal with pests such as squirrels and moles, among other uses. Whatever you use your .22LR for, you need some ammo.

These .22LR rounds weigh in at 40 grain, making them both lightweight and still within the standard weight range for the cartridge size. Being so lightweight is part of what enables the .22LR to have such a small felt recoil, but it also means the rounds fly down-range at higher speeds. These are Lead Round Nose, or LRN, rounds and as such will not expand on impact. Target rounds like these are prone to over-penetration, so make sure you have a good backstop in place before you hit the range. Each of these rounds leaves the barrel of your gun at a muzzle velocity of 1200 feet per second and a muzzle energy of 128 foot-pounds. This ammunition is great for target practice, plinking, and pest control.
