Aguila Match Rifle 22lr ammo thoughts?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I was wondering if anyone could give me their thoughts about the Match Rifle ammo? I went shooting last night and was very impressed! The ammo grouped as good as any I shot. I have shot everything from crap all the way up to Wolf Match Extra of which the Aguila matched or beat out.

I did notice the smell of the powder was different and was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on how dirty it may be........have not cleaned my gun yet........I know its a sin. I also wondered about lead fouling since they are not coated bullets as well?

Looks like this may be one of the best values out there.......just a little more than bulk ammo.......$31 a brick and less than half of Wolf prices.

i haven't tried the aguila match but i did a little informal 22lr ammo testing the other day.

Aguila High velocity 40gr did the best. If it's any indication of their match stuff...

Average-ish groups of 5 were under an inch at 50 yards off a bubba-ed 10/22 with just the fore-end resting on an ammo can.

The other end were the Federal bulk packs at 2-3 inches.

You should try some vujade. I was shooting it out of a 10/22 T and my buddy was using a MKII......we both had good results......now to confuse things......the pistol match may have even edged the rifle match???? Go figure that....I can't explain it.....

That has been my observations as well. If and when I buy Aguila I always buy the pistol match.
