22 Long Rifle (LR) Ammo For Sale
Overview of 22 Long Rifle (LR) Ammo
22 LR ammo is the most widely produced and popular cartridge in the United States. For more than 100 years, it has served the needs of hunters, sport shooters, law enforcement, and even the military. Based on the Flobert BB cap, 22 Long Rifle ammunition is the result of continuous improvement of the BB cap to meet the need for a cartridge with accuracy, low recoil, and low noise for many applications.
The 22 LR rimfire cartridge is used in many situations, from target shooting to plinking and small rodent control. It's comparatively inexpensive, widely available, and lighter to carry – making 22 LR ammo a fantastic choice for extended shooting sessions at the range, an extended hunting trip, or a long hike while hunting rabbits and squirrels.
For reliable performance across all these applications, many shooters choose CCI Mini Mag 22LR for its consistent feeding and accuracy.

Nothing in life is perfect including 22 caliber rim fire bullets, but they come close.

Excellent service

Sparlash said:
All of the rounds in the 555 box had spinning bullets loosely crimped. The results are erratic velocity readings and failures to load and eject. I am very fearful of getting a squib. I shoot a Taurus TX 22. I will save this stuff for my single action Ruger single six revolver where I can shoot slowly and react to a misfire or squib unlike shooting quickly in a semi auto.

Crafter said:
Rounds poorly made. Bullets spin and bend inside casing. CCI rounds are rock solid by comparison. These rounds jam frequently, have multiple duds per magazine, and are generally unreliable. Not happy with my purchase and will not ever purchase again.

I've shot this in a Marlin 39A, Enfield BSA Trainer, M4 Colt with 22 subcal unit, SIG 226 with 22 conversion and my Colt ACE. Functioned well in all. No problems feeding or clean up.

I recently purchased a Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 in order to get the functionality of the AR platform all while using ammo that I can not just afford but really enjoy shooting with. The M&P 15-22 is basically an AR15 just scaled down to a .22LR cartridge, all of the classic AR functionality still exists and works, no "fake" switches or levers here, it operates very much the same as your average AR just with .22LR so you can not only shoot all day but enjoy it too at a fraction of the price you would if you were shooting 5.56 I absolutely love the rifle and Ammo.com is the best place to get high quality bulk ammo at the best available prices. I plan on continuing to use them to stock up so I can spend more time at the range and less time worrying about affording ammo.

If you look at the 3rd picture (sure wish I did before I purchased) you will see how filthy the cases are and how poorly aligned the bullets are. I can tell you the boxes I got are at least that bad. Wish I had paid a few bucks more for something better. My Sig P322 has a 20%+ failure rate with this trash. It does better in my Smith & Wesson MP 15-22, but still not great. Maybe in a revolver or bolt action it might not suck so bad for plinking?

Got a varmint problem on the farm. Now I have less of a problem. Loading into a smith and Wesson 22cal Hammond gun. 10 round clip. No jamming. No miss fires. Will buy again.

TOM said:
BEST OF THE INEXPENSIVE AMMOS THAT I HAVE TRIED IN MY SAVAGE MARK 2. CONSISTENTLY SHOT AROUND 3/4 INCH GROUP AT FIFTY YARDS AND MOST WERE CLOSER THAN THAT. ,PRICE RIGHT, QUALITY GOOD. MORE ACCURATE THAN MORE EXPENSICE AMMO IN MY GUN AT LEAST. SINCERELY, TBA

John said:
I can confirm the previous review. My Taurus will not feed them. I never had a problem with CCI. Yes, the square tip of the hollow point jams. But they also don't feed through the magazines consistently. And some get stuck in the barrel itself - as if they are not dimensionally consistent and the ones that jam are a little too wide. I have about 5,000 rounds that are useless. Really disappointed with the Winchester brand.

I've fired over 400 rounds through my new SigArms auto without a misfire. That has to be a record for me.
-
Ahmad said:
I got the 3330 rounds. Unfortunately didn't go well with my Taurus. Failure to feed likely because it's not round tip. The hollow point makes more likely to get stuck. Now I have tops of these that I don't know what to do with

Cheap, but dirty ammo. This ammo might go bang and might not. Accuracy is about 2 plus inches at 50 yards on a good day. Out of 50 rounds I get approx. 6 rounds that did not fire, half of them did fire on the second try. You get what you pay for.

manny said:
Recently received my second order of 5000 round lot. Shoots well through a revolver, semi-auto rifle, and semi-auto pistol. Outstanding value, very clean ammo, unlike Aguila, which was gummy and super dirty, causing failure to feeds. Very pleased with the ammo. I'd seen reviews in years past that were negative, but couldn't be happier with purchase.

I used to shoot this when I was a boy. A few decades later I tried it again, and a few more decades later, it hasn't changed. If you enjoy spending your time cleaning your iron, this won't disappoint, because it's the dirtiest, most filthy ammunition I've ever shot. I have one brick left from decades ago purchase and might use it when I run out of my other brands, but for my iron, I doubt I'll ever purchase any ever again. It gums up ALL my iron every time. It's my last choice desperate use ammunition, because of that. I've never found another brand that's as Dirty as the Remington .22 ammunition.

Why do I need a nickname? said:
Horrible ammo, stuck in my revolver and wouldn't feed at all thru SIG Sauer Mosquito. Unfortunately, I bought several boxes. Note to self, in the future, buy the smallest amount of ammo to see if it's worth it.

Butch said:
I agree with a previous response. The loads are not consistent. Some crack but others are a dull pop and won’t rack the slide. I emailed Remington yesterday 11/18/18.

Great Ammo!! I am very pleased with this 22lr ammo! The shipping was fast, and the ammo shoots very consistent! I got very tight groups when shooting my Mossberg AR 22. Will definitely be buying more of these!!!

I shoot this load in my Beretta. There is always an issue with .22 primers. With these Thunderbolt Rounds I'm have greater success with .22's than others. They also work great in the Ruger Mark IV or Buckmark pistols, and my 10/22 Ruger rifle. As of today I have ordered another 2k more rounds.

Philip said:
This is CCI 22lr ammo so I would not expect the best and indeed CCI did not let me down. What did let me down was ammo.com's shipping department. Each of the 100 round was packed in standard CCI plastic slide top boxes and of the 5 boxes ALL 5 were cracked and or broken. The shipping box they came in looked okay shape, a couple of brused coners so the damage to the 22lr ammo had to have come from something internal, like the 3 boxes of Speer Lawman 38 Special Ammo - 50 Rounds of 125 Grain TMJ Ammunition and the 2 boxes of Hornady 357 Magnum Ammo - 25 Rounds of 135 Grain FTX Ammunition. I am pretty sure the 35 special and 357 magnum ammo was sloshing around inside the shipping container and hitting against each other as the 22lr ammo. The packing inside the shipping container was pretty minimal for that much weight and there should have been a lot more packing so nothing could move around. All the internal boxes need to be held ridgid. Don" feel bad, I have ordered ammo from other online companies with very simular results.

This seems to be the best functioning ,consistent ,and accurate I ‘ve used. Strongly recommend. I guess especially if you are on a small game.

Very high quality consistent ammo. Never light strike, always reliable. Best on the market.

SideWinder said:
Love this ammunition! I fired over 1500 rounds through my S&W M&P AR 15-22 with only two rounds not ejecting completely. Your price is somewhat high as this ammo can be found elsewhere for around 50.00. It is your great service and timely shipping that keeps me coming back.

The ammo I purchase from you worked great. No jamming or misfires. I was completely satisfied. The value was ok, but considering the cost of shipping it wasn't that great. I don't do a lot of shooting so I would probably purchase again.

steve said:
CCI does me very well, hardly ever a problem cycling and much cleaner than lots of other brands. As long as its available will always use CCI and the service here also great.......I'll def be buying from here again.

I run these through a Ruger 10/22 factory bull barrel. Benched shooting at 100 yards, they print Quarter sized groups.

Ken said:
Bought 1000 rounds from lot 3122-30189, fired approximately 350 and had 5 short rounds from cartridges from 2 different boxes. Trying to prepare for USBR rim fire competition and now not sure I can trust this ammo? Had to rod the barrel to insure I didn't have a squib round, this takes time and deflection from competition.

FC said:
This fires very well and is worth the extra money. If you use 22 cal for self defense buy this one. Never had a misfire with it. This is with the product made in Germany. I haven't tried if from England yet.

Schneider said:
Am very satified with the performance in our rifles: Hope you get some more in before long~~~

Roger said:
I've only shot 20 rounds and had 8 complete failures. I made sure they were fired by multiple pistols and even 2, 3 or 4 marks on the rims and nothing. Luckily I only bought 3 50rd boxes to try out. I won't be buying these ever again.
