5000 Rounds of Bulk 36gr LHP .22 LR Ammo by Remington 22 Cyclone

The .22LR is a versatile round. It can be used for everything from instructing new shooters to hunting small game to varmint control to plinking, and it’s a longtime favorite of survivalists. One of the reasons survivalists prefer the .22LR is its weight; it’s easier to carry a gun long distances if it isn’t overly heavy, and being able to carry fairly large quantities of its ammunition is fantastic. Some shooters fail to see the hunting ability of the .22LR, and while it’s true it shouldn’t be used to take down large game, it’s also important to remember the value of shot placement. In the 20th century a hunter took down a massive grizzly bear with her .22LR by shooting it through the eye (she followed that up with several more shots once she was able to move closer), and while we don’t recommend that, it’s a good reminder of just how far precision can get you.

These .22LR rounds weigh 36 grain, making them lightweight but also within the standard weight range for the cartridge size. Being so light gives them the ability to zip down-range with lightning speed, and since these are specifically high velocity rounds they move even faster. These are Hollow Point (HP) rounds and expand somewhat on impact. Because they’re HPs they decelerate on impact as well which helps prevent over-penetration. Each of these rounds has a muzzle velocity of 1280 feet per second and muzzle energy of 131 foot-pounds. These rounds can be used for hunting varmints and pests and are also great for target practice and plinking.

When you order this big case of ammunition from Remington, you get a whopping 5000 rounds, which you have to admit is awesome. Just think of the squirrels and gophers you can take down with 5000 rounds, the pop cans you can ventilate, and the endless hours of plinking. There’s nothing more fun than shooting a .22LR; they’re like the potato chips of the gun world, once you’ve fired one round, you can’t stop. This ammunition is made by Remington, a company that has been in business since 1816. With almost 200 years of experience they’ve certainly got the process down, and these high velocity Cyclone rounds are a great example of their innovation and quality.
