Remington 22 Golden Bullet .22 LR 36gr Plated Hollow Point

Remington‘s 22 Golden Bullet line in .22 Long Rifle (brand part no. 21231) loads a 36-grain plated hollow point at high velocity for shooters who want a dependable, widely available rimfire round for plinking and small game. The plated hollow point uses a copper plating over the lead core rather than a full jacket, a lower-cost construction that still keeps the bore cleaner than plain lead while still expanding on impact. At a listed 1,280 feet per second, this HV loading generates 131 foot-pounds of muzzle energy, solid performance for a standard-velocity .22 LR round. Golden Bullet has been Remington’s affordable, high-volume rimfire line for generations, built for shooters who go through rounds by the case rather than the box. For .22 LR shooters who want dependable bulk ammunition, this rimfire ammunition keeps the range day going.
