.22 Long Rifle FAQ

Q: What is the most powerful 22 long rifle ammo on the market? A: The most powerful 22 long rifle ammo loads are hyper-velocity cartridges, with the CCI Stinger and Aguila Supermaximum holding the crown. These rounds utilize slightly lighter 22 long rifle bullets (around 30 to 32 grains) propelled by a maximized powder charge to reach blistering muzzle velocities of up to 1,640 to 1,700 feet per second, delivering devastating terminal expansion on varmints.

Q: What is the best 22 long rifle ammo for self-defense? A: While rimfire is not a traditional defensive choice, many rely on a 22 long rifle pistol or rifle for personal protection. The best 22 long rifle ammo for self-defense utilizes reliable, high-velocity hollow points or specialized segmenting bullets—such as CCI Velocitors or Federal Punch—which are specifically engineered to maximize penetration depth and expansion out of short handgun barrels.

Q: Can I reload .22 Long Rifle ammunition? A: Unlike centerfire cartridges, rimfire cases cannot be easily reloaded at home because the priming compound is spun directly into the hollow rim of the brass during manufacturing. Because of this, buying factory-fresh .22 long rifle ammo is the only practical way to feed your rimfire firearms. Fortunately, our competitive prices make stocking up incredibly affordable.
