The Aguila 1B220269 delivers consistent subsonic performance for precision shooting applications requiring reduced noise signatures. This 22LR ammunition features a 40-grain lead solid point projectile engineered to remain below the sound barrier while maintaining terminal effectiveness.
What Makes This Different
Aguila's subsonic formula keeps velocities consistently under 1,100 feet per second, eliminating the sonic crack that standard velocity rounds produce. The lead solid point construction provides controlled expansion and penetration superior to hollow point designs in subsonic applications. Manufacturing quality control ensures velocity consistency within 25 fps across the entire production lot.
Key Features
- 40-grain lead solid point bullet optimized for subsonic velocities
- Velocity approximately 1,025 fps from standard rifle barrels
- Consistent powder charge eliminates velocity variations
- Lead solid point design maintains accuracy at extended ranges
- 50 rounds per box packaging for range sessions
- Brass cases suitable for reloading applications
- Compatible with all 22LR firearms and feeding systems
This ammunition excels in suppressed firearms where maintaining subsonic velocities prevents baffle strikes and maximizes sound reduction. The solid point design penetrates consistently through small game while the reduced velocity minimizes meat damage. Range shooters appreciate the reduced noise signature for training in noise-sensitive environments. The heavier 40-grain bullet maintains energy better than lighter subsonic loads at distances beyond 50 yards.
