Overview
This rimfire load is built for shooters who want a subsonic .22 LR option for hunting or competition, with a lead hollow point bullet and a 38 grain weight. Its lower velocity is intended to reduce noise and recoil, which can make it a practical choice for suppressed or non-suppressed firearms. The listed muzzle velocity is 1040 feet per second with 96 foot-pounds of muzzle energy, and each box contains 50 rounds. It suits hunters and precision-minded rimfire users who want a controlled, purpose-driven cartridge without unnecessary extras.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Subsonic performance can be a trade-off if you want maximum velocity; this load is built around reduced noise and recoil rather than speed.
- The 38 grain lead hollow point is a specific-purpose rimfire load, so it may not be the most versatile choice for every .22 LR application.
- Box count is 50 rounds, which is practical for range use or a hunt, but may require more frequent restocking for high-volume shooting.
- As a lead hollow point, it is best matched to users who specifically want this bullet style and are comfortable with that cartridge configuration.
