Aguila's Interceptor is widely regarded as the fastest 40-grain .22 LR round on the market, launching at a muzzle velocity of 1,470 fps (448 m\/s) and generating 192 ft-lbs (260 J) of muzzle energy — figures that put most standard and high-velocity .22 LR offerings firmly in the shade. That velocity advantage makes it a genuinely capable small game hunting round, while the copper plated hollow point construction ensures reliable expansion on impact rather than simply punching through. Packaged as a 1,000-round slab made up of 20 individual 50-round boxes, it's an ideal bulk buy for hunters and range shooters who go through rimfire at volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAguila Rimfire 22LR Interceptor Hollow Point 40GR Ammo - 1000 Round Slab Key Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCalibre and Bullet Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chambered in .22 LR with a 40-grain projectile — the standard bullet weight for this calibre, balancing velocity, energy retention, and feed reliability across a wide range of .22 LR firearms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMuzzle Velocity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,470 fps (448 m\/s) at the muzzle, making this the fastest 40-grain .22 LR rimfire load commercially available.
