22 LR – 40 Gr #12 Shot – Winchester Super X (X22LRS) – 1000 Rounds

Dealing with snakes, rats, or mice around the property? Stock up with this 1000 round case of Winchester Super-X X22LRS 22 LR #12 shot ammo, a bulk supply of rimfire shotshells for close-range pest control.

Rather than firing a single bullet, each Winchester X22LRS round fires a small charge of #12 lead shot held in a crimped case. The shot spreads as it leaves the barrel, forming a small pattern that makes hitting a snake in the grass or a rat on a beam much easier than aiming a single tiny bullet. Because the pellets are so small, they shed energy rapidly, which greatly reduces the risk of ricochets and keeps the load from traveling far downrange. That is exactly what you want inside barns, sheds, and around livestock and buildings. This load is designed for very close range work, typically within about 10 to 15 feet, where most pest encounters occur.

The 22 Long Rifle is the most popular cartridge in the world, chambered in rifles like the Ruger 10/22, Marlin Model 60, Savage Mark II, CZ 457, and Henry lever actions, and in handguns like the Ruger Mark IV, Browning Buck Mark, Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22, and Glock 44. Shot cartridges are designed for smoothbore rimfire guns and dedicated shot barrels, and they also fire from standard rifled 22 LR firearms at very close range, although the rifling spreads the pattern quickly. Because the load is light, it will usually not cycle semi-automatic actions, so plan on working the action by hand in semi-autos, or use a bolt action, lever action, single shot, or revolver. Winchester’s Super-X line has been a staple on American farms for generations. A 1000 round case gives you enough to keep boxes in the barn, shop, truck, and tackle box, and plenty to pattern your firearm so you know exactly how far the shot spreads at typical distances.

This American-made Winchester ammo is new production, brass-cased, rimfire-primed, and non-corrosive. Rimfire cases are not reloadable. Each box holds 50 rounds, and twenty boxes make up this 1000 round case.
