22 Long Rifle Ammunition, also known as 22LR Ammo is one of the most popular cartridges sold today, and for good reason. This rimfire ammunition is used for varmint hunting, sport shooting, self-defense, and plinking. There are actually a few calibers using .22 bullets, but 22LR ammo is used in far more rifles and handguns. Our wide selection of .22 LR ammo is available in subsonic, standard velocity, and high-velocity 22 rounds to suit your needs. Subsonic rounds are quieter which makes them the perfect choice for eliminating pesky backyard varmints or plinking. Hunters looking to take down coyotes and other small game should use high velocity .22LR ammo since it follows a flatter trajectory and can reach longer distances.image

What Is the Best Bullet for a .22 Rifle?

The best 22 Long Rifle Ammo depends on how you plan to use your rifle. For example, if you just want to hit targets at the range, pick up some lead round nose ammo. This is the most common and basic cartridge that has an exposed lead bullet, and it is usually the cheapest option. If you have a pistol or plan to use the rifle for home defense, grab some jacketed soft point or hollow point 22LR ammo. These have more stopping power than standard exposed lead cartridges.

What Is the Best Way to Store .22LR Ammo?

Just like all ammo, the best thing you can do to protect the rounds in storage is to keep them in a cool, dry area. This means don’t put them somewhere like an unfinished basement if you can avoid it, as these spaces tend to harbor moisture and get much colder. Additionally, don’t keep the rounds anywhere they can get significantly hot. The best place is in a closet or gun safe that is climate-controlled.

Can .22 Long Rifle Be Lethal?

Yes. Even though some people say it doesn’t have the stopping power of more common carry calibers, like 9 mm Luger, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP, weapons that shoot .22 caliber bullets are still very much lethal.
