Optimized especially to feed and
eject reliably in the sometimes finicky actions of .22LR semiautomatics, these
Federal Automatch rounds are an excellent target and plinking load and come in
a large box of 325. These rounds are at the higher end of the standard velocity
range, with a tested muzzle velocity of 1,200 feet per second using a 40 grain
lead round nose bullet.
Federal Premium Ammunition
manufactures a variety of .22LR cartridges for match, target, and plinking purposes.
The company also produces a complete line of hunting cartridges in both
soft-point (Power-shok) and hollow-point (Fusion) types as well as self-defense
HSTs and Hydra-Shoks. Federal ammunition tends to be in the middle of the pack
for pricing and above average in quality, particularly in the areas of accuracy
and cleanliness.

I have used Federal 22 Rimfire ammo for many years and find it to be the best performing ammunition on the market !
Raildick –
Shoots well, reliable and accurate in my .22’s but is extremely expensive.
John –
The ammo fires well and performs fine on firing however I have had jamming occur because the bullets would not push into the chamber of my Remm 597 semi auto. Other than this I have had no problems but it is fairly noticeable.

Bought this to fire through my new S&W M&P15-22. Excellent ammo, good price and no FTF’s. A little dirty to load by hand due to the lead round, but a great shell overall.
Sig guy –
I have put over 1000 rounds through my Ruger SR 22 and SW M&P .22 pistols and it has been flawless. Highly recommend.
Columbo –
This ammo is very accurate and I have had no feeding problems it’s a little costy though.
Jeff –
As “target ammo goes this stuff is a bargin. 50 feet off sandbags I can cover a 5 shoot groupe with a dime. Love the stuff
LouieBell –
Great Deal Now she enjoy going out and shoot.
John R. –
Have had very few FTF in over 900 rounds. Intend to continue purchasing this from BA.
LeeBo –
I’m not crazy about the loose round packaging, but the price and reliability make it worthwhile. I’ll order again.
rickbsgu –
I wouldn’t call it a ‘bargain’, but it shoots much better groups than CCI out of my Browning Buckmark. Very reliable.
Tim –
No complaints. Ordering was simple and delivery was very quick. Overall happy with the entire transaction.
Scott –
Ammo was accurate but had about a 1 in 15 misfire rate in my sr22. Service from bulkammo was very good.
Bevin –
I have used this ammo in my new Ruger American Rimfire Compact with excellent results. With an after-market peep sight added, my rifle shot this ammo into a very small group on a 50 foot target range. We prefer this ammo for Boy Scout instruction because it is so accurate and never fails to fire. Similar results with a Ruger 10/22. The price is reasonable and the 325-round bulk packaging is efficient.
James –
Bought a few boxes of this to start my account as local retailer only seem to have to 100 count packs at twice the cost.
I chose all shipping options and received my order in three days. Very impressed.
Even with the shipping options I am sending .22’s downrange for almost a penny a shot.
Gotta love that.
Saving up for an order of all I need now that I see Bulkammo.com is the best.

I was shopping for ammo as usual and found the best prices here. My purchase was in perfect and delivered quickly. I will definitely be a loyal customer and recommend BulkAmmo to anyone looking for a good deal on quality ammo and prompt delivery.

This Ammo does not eject on my Mossberg 715P. I also have a 525 box of Remington that does not work and in fact it was worst. Tried CCI and shot over 100 rds without a problem. Is it the gun? I don’t think so but it is always a possibility.
ClaudiusX –
See above
Desert Rat –
Bulk Ammo delivered quickly, my order of 22 long rifle ammo. The test rounds performed well, no misfired rounds. The cost was reasonable. Will continue to order from Bulk Ammo for these reasons.
LLCoolJeff –
Perfect rounds for plinking and target shooting. I was shooting these out of a brand new Ruger Mark III, and had 2 FTE which I thought was a little strange for that gun but have heard they are particular on what they like to eat. These occured about 300 rounds in though, and I had no FTF; maybe this is attributed to a new magazine and a dirty barrel? I’d probably come back to this type after shooting a few other brands to see if its just my picky gun.
Rick –
The ammo was shipped quickly and packaged properly. Not one shell miss fired. I will use Bulk Ammo again.
Dawn –
I read that this ammo was better than the Remington Thunderbolt. I was very disappointed. I had many more FTF and FTE with this stuff than with the Thunderbolt. On cleaning my Uzi 22LR, I was pulling out huge chunks of lead from the barrel.
RedBarchetta –
I shoot this ammo often, and found the best price on BulkAmmo.com. Told a few friends, we put together a large order. All ammo was shipped without damage and order received perfectly. Even with shipping, best deal on the Internet. Very happy.
Miller –
Placed a fairly large order on a Sunday, was at my doorstep Tuesday. Quality ammo at a great price. I could not order bulk ammo locally at this price. Also most local ammo dealers do not stock quantity. Forever bulk ammo customer!
Dave C –
I gravitated to this stuff because it was so cheap, and have probably shot 5 boxes of 325 LRN rounds through my S&W Model 617. Maybe only 2 or 3 FTF in all of that, but the amount of residue and lead splatter was astounding. I ran 500 rounds of CCI Standard Velocity thru in one session and the gun was cleaner than after running half a box or less of the Federal through. I clean this gun after every trip to the range, so it is very easy to compare. Yes, it is cheap, yes it is reliable in a revolver, but it is also very smokey and dirty to fire.
Mike –
Fast shipment and delivery. Also great communication keeping me up to speed about the order
CW3GTC –
New box of ammo. Brand new Henry octagon bbl Frontier model lever action saddle rifle.
Out of first 10 rounds, 7-8 were all FTE ! Ammo looked fine. Rifle new from box.
Will try to send Henry back for exam/repair before trying different type ammo. This is just my experience, so ammo review may not be a fair eval.
Thanx for reading.
KW –
Shooting the ammo in a sr22 and a S&W victory. Ftf on both guns, at least one or two per magazine
Gman16 –
Cheap. A little disappointed in Performance. Shot pretty straight when you get a good load. Failed to load in all my pistol and 2 rifles 3-5 times out of 10. Bullets were lose in the cartridge. But they were cheap. I guess in all aspects.
ckt –
Product was good and worked well. will certainly purchase again in the future.
SpeedPony –
I have been using these exclusively for target shooting with my Ruger Mark III for over a year. Probably about 1500 rds total and experience a FTE 1 in 30-40 rds. I brought it to Ruger but they say there is nothing wrong with the weapon, and test fired 40 rds with no issues. I have two Mark III’s and I have the same issues with each. I accept the fact that it is probably the ammo but I will continue to use these because a little inconvenience seems a small price to pay in order to keep my shooting costs as low as possible. All in all, it’s a good choice for the money if all you’re looking for is target ammo. I’ll keep buying it from Bulk Ammo for my target shooting.
John R. –
Out of a box of 325 I had 4x FTF. Other than that the ammo works well but does seem to be a bit dirty. I will buy it again
Fast450 –
More than adequate for a day at the range. Feeds and fires in all my rifles and just accurate enough to make it fun.
Hector –
Ordered two boxes, my new ppk loved spitting these out. One round out of every 25 or so failed to eject. The walther ppks can be picky though. Would order again.
Jones –
325 rounds all in one outing; not one misfire or jam. Worked as advertised.
scooter –
my stock ruger 10/22 shoots these rounds pretty good and good accuracy for me. sometimes 1 inch groupings or less at 50 yards. i like this ammo even though it’s plain lead. not very many problems after firing 3 boxes
RJ –
Fired an entire box out of my TCR-22, and only had one fail to fire. Was much cheaper when I first ordered them 2 months ago, but its still fairly cheap.
mike –
i got this box delivered today ordered it a few days ago fast shipping like bulkammo.com always does ran about 40 just to see how it preforms out of my little lever action Rossi and it loaded smooth shot smooth and ejected smooth so out of 40ish random rounds not one miss fire or issue not sure about how it would run in a semi auto, but I’d bet money it would run smooth seems would definitely buy more of it. it does come in a box of 325 loose rounds no holder but i have a few cci plastic boxes that i use to take ammo around with me on the go so not a big deal in my eyes. BUY IT UP!
