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. Our 22 LR price history shows how the cheapest rimfire range ammo has moved month by month since 2009.

For reliable performance across all these applications, many shooters choose CCI Mini Mag 22LR for its consistent feeding and accuracy.

You can filter our entire selection using the left sidebar to see which brands we currently have in stock and available using the Manufacturers filter. You can also filter by attributes such as Bullet Type, Bullet Weight, and Casing Type to find what you need.

  • Ashley said:

    Great

  • Bill said:

    Far too many misfires.Approx 30%. Federal 36 gram 0% misfires

  • Ted S said:

    I SHOT AROUND 250 ROUNDS AT THE RANGE AND HAD NO PROBLEMS AT ALL.

  • William said:

    I've heard of bad batches but never witnessed any with 10k rounds bought. I run this is all my plinking guns with no barrel fouling, and just the occasional failure to fire due to bad primer (~1/300). Pistol, rifle or revolver all take this as well as minimag at around .02$ less per round. I'll take a box of 500 and run through it at the range. Runs cleaner than most 22 I've fired too.

  • Sh00ter said:

    I am surprised that Ammo.com is even trying to sell this ammo, winchester has 7 lots on their recall list, with others that I have had issues with. The ammo has issues with overloads in powder. Had one round that ruined my ruger Sr 22. Due to the overloaded round going off in the gun. Strong enough that it blows apart the rimfire from the casing.

  • Jesus said:

    On target good rounds will bye again

  • RMK said:

    Very good at 100 feet

  • Warren said:

    Good value based .22LR. Couple of misfires per 100 rounds but could have been losing based or gun.

  • Joseph said:

    Was excited to receive shipment. Upon visit to range liberally 1 out of 3 bullets would jam or just not fire at all. Thank God i keep better ammo for protection.

  • Joseph said:

    Brought this 1000 round bundle. Took to the range. LITERALLY after every 2 or 3 shots it would get jammed and not fire. Loaded magazines 6 different times and same issue every single time.

  • Dan Young said:

    This ammo was of poor quality and it underperformed. I had on average 3-to-4 rounds per 100 that either didn’t fire at all after 3 recycles or else fired after recycling; it appears to be a quality control issue with the rimfire primers. I use a very reliable handgun. The overall accuracy was also sub-par compared to other brands of “best value” .22 rimfire ammo I have used. I won’t purchase this Winchester M 22 ammo again.

  • Ron said:

    Best .22 ammo out there.

  • Shadow said:

    One in every 10 or 15 failed to fire. Not great, but I'm told for rimfire rounds that is normal. I expected more reliability given the price.

  • Kimosabe said:

    Have not popped a cap on one of this batch, but have shot a bunch of CCI ammo. Bulk is a great value (.08) and CCI is a quality brand. kw

  • Ron said:

    As an instructor, We use thousands of rounds every year. CCI Minimags are, by far, the most dependable that we have found.

  • Jay said:

    CCI MiniMag JHP is tops. Bought 5k rounds @bulk price. Great stuff. Bravo ammo.com

  • Andrew said:

    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.

  • Matthew said:

    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?

  • Philip said:

    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

  • CLL said:

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

  • Richard said:

    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.

  • David said:

    Perfectly suited round for indoor 50 ft competition; relatively clean burning and 100% reliable. Outstanding service from Theo at ammo.com.

  • Joey said:

    Didn't miss

  • Danny said:

    Excellent ammo no misfires or jams, Great price also, Pleasure doing business with you, will by again,

  • G said:

    Worked great through the suppressor.

  • JMS said:

    I can't buy ammo over the counter for the price I get it from ammo.com. I support my local gun shops versus the big box stores but they don't always have what I want.

  • Steph said:

    It didn't hold up for my rifle and the casing doesn't eject or from my handgun but I will still buy bullets here just not the quiet ones

  • MichaelLV said:

    Good ammo, performs well in my Picky Sig322, but sometimes jams.

  • rodrunner said:

    Ran these thru several 22's each time it preformed . No problems

  • dmcneelus said:

    This is excellent .22 lr ammo. it performs flawlessley and i have had zero ftf. this is ammunition I need lots more od. The shipping was quick and there is no problem ordering from this company.

  • Wilfred said:

    The ammo I wanted was in stock and shipped extremely quickly. It performed well at the range, I'll be buying these again.

  • Sweet said:

    Good quality great price

  • Dale said:

    These are good shells, and high quality from a name you know. Pretty good valve as well, so you can probably afford to shoot all day!

  • DScott said:

    Ammo shot great, well worth the purchase. Will be coming back when I need more.

  • Reginald said:

    Not bad performs as it should. Im satisfied with the performance so far. No misfires yet although I haven't shot too much but ill do another review if I run into issues. Shot a couple hundred out of my bolt action

  • lskie said:

    alot of missfires&some of the shells were bent

  • Skipper said:

    The ammo is very good; the faster velocity makes the 40 gr. bullet a more accurate round over the 1235 fps. ammo. It is also a lot louder than your average round fired. All and all, this ammo works very well in my Browning Buck Mark Carbine.

  • Mike said:

    I've already had several (over 70) misfires (4 boxes in) from 5 types of guns = did not expect that.

  • Mario said:

    I was excited to try this ammo. I have been shooting primarily 22lr lately. I was very surprised and disappointed with this ammo. Every magazine (10 shots) produced miss-fires, eject failures, I would says for every 10 shots I had an average of 2-4 problems. I would expect this from a budget round but not from a CCI product. I struggled to get through my first of 3 containers. I have 2 left and I won’t be using them again in my pistols, I’ll try them in a rifle but I’m done trying the ammo in a pistol. I will not purchase again, definitely not. Every other CCI product I’ve shot has been great. Mario Furst Ruger MK 4 Hunter Browning Buckmark Camper UFX Indoor Range, controlled conditions

  • Tx Randy said:

    Great price, fast service and two day shipping. Two thumbs up.

  • Stephen said:

    Shot 100 rounds of this through my Ruger SR22 pistol last week. Every round fired and cycled flawlessly. This is why I buy CCI ammunition.

  • Mark said:

    This ammunition did a great job at the range. not miss fires, no jams, shot great!

  • Don said:

    Had in inventory was Perfect

  • Wild said:

    Nothing new it’s CCI, this is a good round worked in my pistol and rifle , Rugers, no issues. Will buy again ????

  • Anthony said:

    Superior round. I will buy again!

  • CT Shooter said:

    Right out of the gate, it's packaged much better than most others. It's clean and not waxy or sticky which I have had with other ammo. None of the rounds are deformed or questionable telling me the QC is better tool. You won't be disappointed with this ammo.

  • DK of La said:

    Awesome product, met performance expectations, easy ordering process, fast delivery, and discretely packaged.

  • robert said:

  • Fritz said:

    This form sucks. I bought a box of CCI BLAZER for $9.25 I bought a box of CCI PISTOL for $14.00 . This form list them both as CCI 22 LR Ammo, I don't know which one I am reviewing here. . The cheap Blazer worked great in all guns I tried including a 60 year old Montgomery Wards auto which jams on most brands. . I did not see any benefit to paying the extra $5 for the Pistol Match. Both could consistently hit a quarter at 25 yards.

  • 007 said:

    Can’t lose with CCI

  • Lou said:

    I grew up in the 70 hurting with a Mossberg Model 351KA hurting squirrels with stinger's. I had very good luck. When I got in my early 20's I brought a Browning Buck Mark to take with me when I was deer hurting, because squirrels would to always come under your deer stand so at the end of the day I would use it for them. After a while I would hunt squirrels with the buck mark and stinger's, and at 61 I still use stinger's but I have upgraded to a Ruger Mark IV I got it because it is easier to clean. I also still have the Mossberg.

  • David said:

    The customer service is the best part

  • Bob said:

    Now these were good bullets, but the other ones I bought no sir

  • Robert said:

    Clean smooth and accurate with no failures.

  • David said:

    Absolutely the best 22lr ammunition I have ever shot; very consistent and accurate .

  • Hayes said:

    This ammo is great and actually cycles well out of my SR .22 Winchester Wildcat. It doesn't cycle out of the Ruger 10/22 but that's OK because I got it for the Wildcat for shooting pests in my backyard. I have the Sparrow Surpresor on it and it's more quite than a Benjamin pellet gun. Very accurate at 40 yards and it puts birds to sleep instantly. Great product!
