Aguila Super Extra 22 LR ammo is a standard velocity rimfire round built for shooters who want reliable, affordable practice and plinking ammunition. The 40-grain lead round nose bullet delivers the consistent performance you need for target shooting without the extra velocity or expense of high-velocity loads. Whether you're zeroing a new rifle, teaching a beginner, or running through boxes at the range, these rounds cycle smoothly and group predictably—the foundation of good marksmanship.
22 LR standard velocity ammunition strikes the balance between cost per round and dependable function. The 40-grain bullet weight is mild enough for smaller-frame rifles and ideal for control-focused shooting where recoil and muzzle rise don't cloud your sight picture. Lead round nose construction is proven for accuracy and reliable feeding across a wide range of firearms.
Aguila has been manufacturing rimfire ammo for decades. Their Super Extra line represents honest, no-frills ammunition designed to feed and perform without surprises. You get 50 rounds per box—enough for a solid range session or an afternoon of plinking without breaking the bank.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this ammo work in my 22 LR rifle?
Aguila Super Extra 22 LR ammunition is designed for standard 22 LR chamber rifles. It will cycle and feed in the vast majority of 22 LR firearms. If you own an older, less common, or specialized rifle, check your manual or contact the manufacturer.
What's the difference between standard velocity and high-velocity 22 LR?
Standard velocity 22 LR loads like these are milder—lower recoil and muzzle rise, quieter report, and generally better for accuracy-focused shooting. High-velocity rounds produce more energy, which some firearms require to cycle reliably, but standard velocity is ideal for learning and practice.
Is 22 LR ammo good for target shooting and plinking?
Yes. The 22 LR is the classic choice for target shooting, practice, and recreational plinking. The 40-grain lead round nose bullet is proven for accuracy at typical range distances, and the mild recoil makes it ideal for building fundamentals and enjoying long range sessions without fatigue.
How many rounds come in a box?
Each box contains 50 rounds, giving you a solid practice load without overbuying if you're trying out a new firearm or load.
