The Federal AE22250G American Eagle delivers precision varmint control with 50-grain jacketed hollow point bullets designed for explosive terminal performance. This high-velocity 22-250 Remington ammunition combines Federal's quality manufacturing with an affordable price point that serious varmint hunters demand.
What Makes This Different
Federal's American Eagle line uses the same quality control standards as their premium hunting ammunition but at a more accessible price. The 50-grain jacketed hollow point bullet achieves muzzle velocities around 3,800 fps, creating devastating expansion on contact with varmints while maintaining accuracy at extended ranges. This load strikes the optimal balance between speed and bullet weight for consistent performance on prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and coyotes.
