Additionally, the ammunition's construction promotes clean shooting by reducing ammo buildup, which is essential for maintaining firearm function and longevity.

History and Development

Federal Ammo, established in 1922, has a long-standing history of innovation in ammunition development. Over the decades, the company has continuously refined its products to meet the demands of both civilian shooters and law enforcement officials. The 22 Long Rifle cartridge was developed to answer the need for affordable, reliable, and versatile rimfire ammunition. These cartridges have evolved over time to incorporate modern materials and designs, such as nickel-plated bullet jackets, to improve feeding, function, and accuracy.
