22 WMR – 40 Gr TMJ – Fiocchi Performance (22FWMC) – 500 Rounds

A non-expanding 22 Magnum load is useful when you want to save fur, practice economically, or simply plink with a magnum rimfire. This listing is Fiocchi Field Dynamics 22 WMR 40 grain total metal jacket ammo, MPN 22FWMC, sold as 500 rounds for target practice, small game, and furbearers.

Fiocchi rates this load at 1,900 fps. The 40 grain total metal jacket bullet is fully enclosed in copper and does not expand, so it passes through small animals with less pelt damage than a hollow point and is clean to handle. That makes it a choice for trappers and fur hunters who want to dispatch animals with minimal damage to the hide. For general varmint shooting where rapid expansion is wanted, a hollow point or polymer tip load is a better match.

This ammunition fits rifles and handguns chambered in 22 WMR, including the Savage 93, CZ 457 Magnum, Ruger American Rimfire, Henry Lever Action Magnum, Kel-Tec PMR-30, Ruger Single-Six, and North American Arms mini revolvers. A common question is whether TMJ means the same thing as FMJ. Total metal jacket bullets are fully enclosed including the base, while a typical FMJ leaves the base exposed, though both are non-expanding. Another common question is whether 40 grain 22 WMR shoots to the same point of impact as lighter loads. Usually not, so check zero when you change loads.

Fiocchi 22FWMC is new production ammunition, not reloads. Each round is non-corrosive and uses a rimfire case that is not reloadable. This listing ships as 10 boxes of 50 rounds for a total of 500 rounds from one lot. That is enough for sighting in, practice, and a season of fur hunting with the same load. Store the boxes in a cool, dry place and they will keep for years. Because rimfire priming can be sensitive to moisture, keep boxes sealed when carrying them in the field.
