Rimfire shooters go through ammo quickly, and 800 round boxes reduce trips to the store and the pile of small cartons. This listing is Federal Champion Training 22 LR 40 grain lead round nose ammo in the Range Pack format, MPN 729B800, sold as 3,200 rounds. It suits families, youth programs, and anyone who spends whole afternoons with a 22. A bulk supply like this also takes the sting out of teaching kids and new shooters, who tend to shoot a lot once they get the hang of it.
Federal rates 729B800 at 1,200 fps with 128 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. That is a high velocity 40 grain load, the most common configuration for 22 Long Rifle, and it cycles semi-automatic rifles and pistols well. A lead round nose bullet is a target and plinking projectile. It will take small pests at close range, but its main purpose is practice, training new shooters, and informal target work.
It fits rifles and handguns chambered in 22 Long Rifle, such as the Ruger 10/22, Marlin Model 60, Savage Mark II, CZ 457, Henry lever actions, Ruger Mark IV and SR22, Browning Buck Mark, Smith and Wesson M&P 15-22, and Taurus TX22. A common question is whether 22 LR works in a 22 Short or 22 Magnum gun. No. Use only ammunition that matches the caliber stamped on the barrel. Another common question is whether high velocity 22 LR is safe with a suppressor. Yes, but at 1,200 fps it is supersonic, so it will produce a crack that subsonic ammo avoids.
Federal 729B800 is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA by Federal in Anoka, Minnesota. Rimfire cases are not reloadable, and the load is non-corrosive. This listing ships as 4 boxes of 800 rounds, 3,200 in all, from one lot, so you can sight in once and plink all season. The large boxes also stack neatly in a cabinet or ammo can.
