Q: Is this safe to shoot in the ruger 10 22?
Posted On: 1/1/13 By: Miguel
A: While the pressures of a 22 Long round are safe for any .22LR 10/22 rifle, the .22LR round will be a more suitable choice for your rifle as the overall length is longer. This will provide reliable feeding into the chamber and reduce jams and malfunctions.
Q: Would this 22 long ammunition be safe to use in a bolt action 22 LR / 22 LR revolver?
Posted On: 10/21/11 By: elliot
A: Yes, although it is generally inadvisable to mix ammo types, the .22 Long Rifle is basically a .22 Long case with a longer, heavier bullet. Therefore, it is safe to fire .22 Long ammo in a .22LR firearm. However, if you are buying ammo for your .22LR firearm and do not own a (probably very old) firearm in .22 Long, there is no reason to purchase .22 long ammo.
Q: Hi,
I like to shoot the aguila super calibre which is around 535 ft/s.
You are not supposed to shoot them out of a rifle; however, I have had excellent results doing so.
Very quiet and accurate enough for bunny shots around 20 yrds.
How do these rounds compare? (speed, noise, etc...)
Would you consider stocking the aguila rounds?
Thanks,

A: These 22 Long rounds are faster than the Aguila Super Colibri - these are supersonic from a rifle. At this time we don't have plans to stock Aguila. However, you might want to check out the subsonic Armscor ammo we have.
Q: Are long rifle style better or the same for your weapon than short style?
Thanks, Mike

A: This depends on the rifle you have. Check to see if it is chambered in .22 Short, .22 Long, .22 Long Rifle, or .22 Magnum/.22 WMR. Then select the ammo that your rifle is chambered for.
Q: I had heard in the past that .22 CB's were sub-sonic. However, the second picture shows the velocity on the box, which certainly is not sub-sonic. Am I missing something? Do you carry sub-sonic .22 ammo?

A: .22 CB and .22 Long/.22 CB Long ammo are two separate and distinct types. This CCI .22 Long ammo propels a lighter-than-22LR bullet at velocities that are slightly lower than high velocity 22LR ammo. The standard velocity Armscor 22LR ammo we sell is subsonic.
