Default RWS 22 magnum ammo

The new RWS 22 magnum ammo has a muzzle velocity of 1,952fps. at 50 yds. its 1,624fps. at 100yds. its 1,371fps. Muzzle energy is 339ft.lbs. So looks like they lowerd the velocity once again. Still can't get it in the US but Ive got a sales rep looking into it.

I had some RWS 22 mag ammo. I remember is was in a green and silver box. It was the most accurate 22 mag ammo I ever had. Last time I saw if for sale it was around $30.00 a box. that was a while ago.

Default 22 mag

dlong, that would be the right stuff, thats the best of the 22 magnum ammo from RWS. I did see some RWS 22 magnum from the early 60s the other day it was on some auction sight.

When I bought my Browning A-Bolt 22 Mag, my buddy at the gun shop tossed in a box of the RWS ammo. That was some good ammo!! I run across a left-over round or two every once in a while when looking for change or spare keys. I wish they made it in the original specs still!
