22 LR FEDERAL CHAMPION 40 GRAIN LRN (3200 ROUNDS)

It usually doesn’t make sense to buy 3,200 of something. You wouldn’t buy your wife 3,200 pearl necklaces, for example. You wouldn’t buy your daughter 3,200 kittens. You probably would buy 3,200 beers, but spread out over a few months – not all at once, because then they’d get cold.

But when it comes to 22 LR – one of the funnest rounds to fire – 3,200 just makes sense. And when it’s made by Federal Premium, you can rest assured those 3,200 rounds are going to treat you to the reliable and consistent performance a serious plinker deserves.

This cartridge is loaded with the humble 40 grain lead round nose projectile. It’s not plated with copper, so it’s going to deposit a little more fouling inside the barrel than a CPRN or CPHP, but it’s also a little more economical because of it. Its normal weight doesn’t prevent it from achieving a supersonic muzzle velocity out of a rifle, and it ought to build up enough chamber pressure to operate a semi-automatic as well. Zero terminal expansion to speak of, but it still hits hard enough to send any squirrel into a tizzy.

Does it get any better? Yes! When you get it from your pal the Ammo Man, you get it with free shipping. Use the money you save on shipping to buy even more ammo. That’s what we would do!
