Frequently Asked Questions

What firearms will this .22 LR ammunition work in?

Aguila Super Maximum .22 LR ammunition is designed for standard .22 Long Rifle chamber firearms, including bolt-action rifles, lever-actions, and semi-automatic .22 rifles. Always check your firearm's manual to confirm it's chambered for .22 LR before loading.

Is this ammunition good for small-game hunting?

Yes. The 30-grain bullet and 1,700 fps velocity make this round suitable for hunting rabbits, squirrels, and other small game where quick, accurate shots are important. The round nose design provides reliable expansion characteristics for clean, humane takes.

How does the copper plating benefit the shooter?

Copper plating reduces lead fouling inside the barrel and helps protect the bore from the abrasive effects of repeated firing. This means easier cleaning and longer intervals between maintenance, especially valuable when shooting high volumes.

What makes this round "super maximum"?

The 1,700 fps muzzle velocity positions this round in the upper tier for .22 LR ammunition, delivering increased energy and flatter trajectory compared to standard-velocity .22 offerings. This velocity advantage is particularly noticeable for varmint shooting and longer-range rimfire target work.
