Overview
Designed for close-range pest control, this rimfire shotshell is built around a 22 LR platform with #12 shot and a 31-grain load. It lists a muzzle velocity of 1000 fps and muzzle energy of 69 ft-lbs, making it suited to short-distance use where a shot pattern is preferred. The aluminum casing and 20-round box format keep the load straightforward for hunters who want a compact option for small-game or nuisance-animal work at close range.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for close-range use, so it is not a general-purpose .22 LR option for longer distances.
- The 20-round box count is relatively limited, which may matter if you need higher-volume pest control sessions.
- As a shotshell load, it is purpose-built for pest control and small-game use rather than standard rimfire target shooting.
- Performance is tied to the stated 1000 fps / 69 ft-lbs load characteristics, so it may be less suitable where more power is needed.
