When consistency between sight picture and point of impact is everything, the ammunition you feed your rifle matters. The RWS Target Rifle .22 LR 40gr 1083fps LRN Rimfire Ammo - 50 Rounds is a standard velocity competition and training round engineered to deliver the kind of shot-to-shot uniformity that serious rimfire shooters demand. Built around a 40gr (2.6g) Lead Round Nose projectile travelling at 1083fps (330m/s) with 104ft-lbs (142J) of muzzle energy, this cartridge is tuned for disciplines where predictable trajectory and repeatable performance are non-negotiable. Whether you're competing in 50m prone, three-position, biathlon, benchrest, or running regular practice sessions with a .22 LR rifle, RWS Target Rifle delivers the quality and consistency you'd expect from one of Europe's most established ammunition manufacturers.

RWS Target Rifle .22 LR 40gr 1083fps LRN Rimfire Ammo - 50 Rounds Key Features

• Calibre: .22 LR, a universal rimfire cartridge compatible with a wide range of long guns including bolt-action target rifles and semi-automatic trainers.
• Bullet Weight: 40gr (2.6g) Lead Round Nose, the standard projectile weight for .22 LR target shooting, balancing stability and accuracy at competition distances.
• Muzzle Velocity: 1083fps (330m/s) measured from a 650mm (25.4") barrel, placing this firmly in the standard velocity category for stable, accurate flight without the inconsistencies that can come with high-velocity loads.
• Muzzle Energy: 104ft-lbs (142J), appropriate for small game hunting and consistent with target shooting performance expectations at rimfire distances.
• Lead Round Nose Projectile: The LRN profile reduces drag and supports a stable, predictable trajectory, which is critical when sight adjustments need to translate directly and reliably to the point of impact.
• Brass Casing with Rimfire Primer: Brass casings provide consistent neck tension and reliable ignition, contributing to the shot-to-shot velocity uniformity that competitive and serious practice shooters rely on.
• Competition-Ready Disciplines: Suitable for 50m prone, 50m three-position, 100m standing, biathlon, summer biathlon, 50ft indoor NCAA, benchrest, and free pistol events.
• Standard Velocity: Not subsonic, not high velocity. This standard velocity classification is specifically chosen for target shooting applications where consistent ballistic performance from round to round is the priority.
• Rounds Per Box: 50 rounds per box, practical for range sessions, training blocks, and competition preparation.
• Not Lead-Free: Traditional lead projectile construction, as preferred in most precision rimfire target shooting disciplines.

RWS has a long-standing reputation in the precision rimfire segment, and the Target Rifle load reflects that pedigree. If you're running a .22 LR rifle for club competition, disciplined range practice, or small game work and want a cartridge you can trust to perform the same way every time, this is a solid choice to have on hand.
