My brother in law is a good guy and was kind to give me 3 bricks of Aguila 22LR cartridges for Christmas. I had never even heard of Aguila rimfire ammo until the shortage that began in 2012, but was aware that it had developed a reputation amongst some for being decent ammunition.
Ammo was shot in a CZ 455 Varmint. I had one of those days where it seemed to me that I might not be shooting my absolute best, but count me impressed with the capability and consistency of the Mexican manufactured ammunition.
5 shots each at 50 yards, grid is 1/4 inch, no chrono set up today to verify but factory claims 1255fps.
One other note. Was it just me, or have others noticed too? I have NEVER smelled fired ammunition that smells like this stuff! I don’t know that it smells terrible necessarily, but it’s definitely different. Anyone know why by chance?
(Way to set myself up. This ought to be interesting....)
