Nice test, Tools. Like I said, I love Aguila ammo. I use it in several different calibers and it always performs. Aguila is a Mexican company that started in an older Remington Ammo factory, and they are adding a US factory in Texas. Take care, brother.
Nice. Thank you sir.😎
This is easily the best performing 22 ammo in my LCP II. CCI had all sorts of light primer strikes and FTF. Aguila was perfect feeding and zero light primer strikes. Blame the LCP on the light primer strikes if you want (I get it) but in the end the Aguila was spot on and super reliable in a picky little pocket pistol and CCI, Federal, etc. all struggled.
I've run tons of Aguila with rarely any problem.
Its the other way around for mines
Nice test, as always. That Super Extra has been a solidly reliable ammo in my experience. Not a single failure to fire or eject in probably 2,500 rounds. I do wish it were more accurate out-of-the-box, but for "economy" rimfire, it's fine. (If I take the time to modify the bullets, it will group with a lot spendier ammo, so I buy it whenever it's on sale.)
Absolutely. Great stuff for what it is.
I love this Aguila ammo. I’ve been passing other brands up to buy more of this when I need .22lr
Definitely good stuff.
Same
Back when 22 was impossible to find, I started using Aguila and have been happy with it ever since. I would recommend it to anyone. Nice video.ww
Thank you sir.😎👊
This is good stuff. I rolled the dice and bought 30k rounds before prices started going up due to covid. CCI was always my go-to before that, but this stuff is just as good, and the price was better. Made in Mexico, but made well. It functions and groups well in my Buckmarks, 10/22, and CMMG dedicated .22lr AR upper. Thanks for the test!
Nice 😎
A Mexican company, but they have a factory in Texas.
Makes sense. They have a lot of Mexicans in Texas too, lol. (I used to live north of Houston)@@Mad1Mike
Born in Houston but never lived there.@@JR15A2
I've never had any complaints about their ammo!
😎👍
Back before the plandemic, I was buying this Aguila load 5000 rounds at a time. I've run probably 30K to 40K rounds of this over the last 6 or 7 years. Always pretty consistent, and I have noticed it seems to group slightly lower on the target than Remington Thunderbolts, out of two of my rifles. About 1/4" to 1/2" lower at 25 yards. I just picked up a little more of this Aguila load the other day. Good stuff. Thanks for the test.
Nice. I've run quite a bit of it in the past.
Been waiting to see a consistency test on this since this seems to be the most available bulk 22.
Good stuff.😎👍
ive shot it before, worked quite well. but in the grand scheme of things, at least all the ammo ive shot both expensive and cheap the difference in performance was almost non existant. thats the cool thing about a 22 rifle, youre gonna have fun no matter the brand of ammo. there is one strange caveat. most of us would agree that cci mini mags is pretty close to being the king of 22lr rounds but oddly thats what ive been having the most misfires out of lately
Absolutely. It'll all provide some fun.😎👍
ive shot at least 2-3k rounds on my M&P 15-22 I've only got like 2-3 misfires. love this stuff!
important the ones that failed was after at least 600 rounds and a dirty bolt lol
Nice.😎
👍👍I've been using aguila 22 ammo for years and have always had good results with it. Appreciate the test brother.
😎👊
I bought these in 38gr Hollow Point and just had them at the range with my TX22. Definitely a higher pitch crisper sound (higher velocity) than the 40gr Federal blue box bulk ammo I finished off. It did have a lot of brown smoke/powder flying around, though. But when I cleaned it later that eve, the barrel had almost no lead particles in it. Pretty clean. Simple patch cleaning and done. So pretty impressed so far. I think it was pretty accurate as well.
Nice. I have a bunch of those also.
Good video T&T. You're testing is top notch. I've had good success with the Aguila ammo myself. They seem to make good ammo at a decent price. Thanks again for all you do, you are appreciated. Be safe and keep the faith
Thank you sir. Hope you have a great weekend!
I bought a bunch of the Aquila recently when academy had it on sale for 4/round. They had a limit of 2/day but over 4 days got 8 of the boxes. Shoots great out of the ruger 10/22 and M&p15/22.
Nice. I did the same thing back during Black Friday this last time.
we definitely need to see a CCI mini mag bulk test Thank you for the content!
I can do that for sure.👍
Love these 22 tests. With cost, and having a wife and little one that need to learn, I've been buying much more 22 than anything else.
I need to do some new .22 stuff.😎👍
The Aguila Super Extra is my favorite brand of 22 ammo I use.
Rapidly becoming my favorite inexpensive (relative) ammo as well.
I've used Aguila .22lr ammo for many years. Other than "The Smell" it is always a solid performer. Let' Go Brandon!!!
yup that after burn smell is funky, outdoors its not too bad.
FJB!
FJB
LGBFJB😂
I knew I wasn't crazy and it smelled different than most 😂😂 thanks for verifying lol 💪🔫🇺🇲
This has become my go-to practice ammo in my SW22 Victory, and the main .22lr that I stock. It’s good stuff
Yessir.👍
Aguila has really impressed me In 9mm as well. I used to be able to buy it for .13 to .15 cpr at Gander when they still sold ammo. I bought several thousands of rounds of it. It was always reliable and very clean burning. I wish I knew what powder they were using. It always had a different smell to it. But again it was consistent, reliable and clean. That’s pretty much been my experience with the 22lr. I would gladly trade some of my other brands for it. For sure that Winchester stuff.
Yep. I have heard that it's the priming compound they use that gives it the funky smell.
This is a good test. People seem to complain about the smell so I haven't tried it yet. Funny how gunpowder can smell strange.
It definitely does have an odd smell.
I kinda like the smell
I have been using Aguila for a couple years now and I really like it I still have a couple 500&250 packs back when it was $15 & $29. I can not believe what some people are charging now I saw a 250 pack yesterday for $22 at Sportsman warehouse I left it and bought some more Federal automatch
Yeah, it's a shame.😣
Good jelly test and I am glad to see the performance of the Agiula because I have quite a bit of it. Mainly because it is a less expensive round in this area but now I know it's a good round as well. Thanks for the video and have a great weekend.
Thank you sir. You too!
I use this ammo exact ammo in my Tippman and have placed Rifleman at Appleseed events multiple times with it. VERY consistent for me.
Nice!😎
This is some 22 cal I can find most the time, it shoots pretty good and I like that smell (probably not good for you) I will buy it when I find it, Thank You Sir. 🎬
You can definitely smell that smell.
I use the Aquilla and like them a lot. I’m glad you did this test. It shows how consistent they are.
Thank You for another great video Tools
Thank you, brother!
Thanks for the 22 tests Tools. I was eyeing the Aguila you used down at RK. I think it was around 8 cents a round before tax, so not too bad. I like the performance out of a 22 rifle (had some previously). Might run a few through a Colt Woodsman pistol and see what the performance is really like. I love the little 22's, and I can afford them. Keep the videos coming. Many people enjoy them. MHC
Thank you sir. Appreciate that!😎👊
CCI has been my favorite 22lr for years now but the Aguila is right there with the CCI. The more I use the Aguila, the better I like it. I've got to the point where I will use the Aguila almost as much as the CCI
Yep, and usually a little cheaper.
I've been really impressed with it recently at the range. It was the only 22lr you could buy our way in the last 6mths. It's consistent and we have only had a couple out of 1000 that were "duds"- great bulk ammo to plink with.
Yes ma'am. I've always had good luck with several calibers of it.
I've used that ammo and yes that smell is a give away. And a lot the powder doesn't burn all the time.
😎👍
Nice penetration for a .22! Love watching your videos brother! Thank you again!!🇺🇸👍🏻
Thank you sir.
Glad to see this brand doing well. I use this ammo for my Glock 22lr conversion. Good price and good performance. Good video. 👍
Yessir.
I've always found Aguila to be more similar to CCI than bulk ammo. They do have that weird smell to them for some reason but I don't mind it too much.
Yeah, they definitely smell funky.
@@ToolsandTargets That's from the bat guano used for sulphur. 😂
@@billdye3530 🦇💩🦇💩🦇
@@ToolsandTargets That's why Skynard had the hit song What's That Smell. Aguila
@@billdye3530 😂😂😂
Serious qc going on. Most were within 40 fps of each other. It's one of my favorite 10/22 and Rough Rider loads.
They're definitely doing something right.
just bought 26000 rounds of this runs great been shooting this stuff for years
Nice.😎👊
I've used Aguila .22lr with good reliability. I bought some Aguila 5.56 ammo last year. Haven't tested yet.
I've run quite a bit of their 5.56 in the past. Never had any issues.😎👍
@@ToolsandTargets thanks. I was going to ask if you'd used any.👍🏻
Aguila 12 gauge made a sissy out of my in my jc higgins bolt action. I’ve shot a lot of different aguila and it’s pretty darned good
😆😆😆
I buy this ammo regularly both hollow point and round nose and love it. Accuracy is great as is consistency between rounds. I've shot a few thousand rounds of it in a bunch of different firearms. It runs well in a Rossi R22 (Mossberg 702 Plinskter variant) as well as several pistol revolvers. The ONLY firearm these ust won't work well in is the GSG 1911 by ATI, the primer gets a decent strike but I get a lot of failure to fire with this brand only, I think they have a slightly odd thickness to the shell casing so the tolerance is slightly out of bounds with the ammo.
Not to make this reply too long but I occasionally have issue in revolvers with bulging at the base of the shell casing causing it to stick out of chamber after being fired stopping the cyclinder from rotating. Does it in all three Heritage Rough Riders I own. BUT that being said you cannot beat the price at all for the performance ....
Interesting. I can't remember if I've run much of this out of my Heritage revolvers.
@@ToolsandTargets Maybe file it away for a future video with related topic and try it. Love your videos by the way ... I'm going shooting in the morning and you are one of a few channels on my list to watch on shooting day to get in the mood. We shoot outdoors on private land and that cannot be beaten, I dislike indoor ranges immensely.
@@megatrends Agreed. Outside is where it's at!
Thanks for the video. I have had good performance from the Aguilla 22lr .
Same here.😎👍
I just ran 250 rounds of this through a Walther P22Q. I had no hiccups, and that Walther can be finicky. If I use Normal it won’t even eject the empty casing.
It also ran 100 rounds of Winchester Xpert with no problems.
It's pretty good plinking ammo!
I got speeds about 1070 fps out of my Ruger Mark IV 22/45 Lite and speeds similar to yours out of a Keltec P17. They were over 1250 fps in a Ruger 10/22.
I picked up some 500 packs for $18 + tax recently at Sportmens Warehouse.
Nice.😎
You can't beat Ah'-gee-lah ammo for the price. Been using it for many years now.
Yessir.👍
Yeah, means Eagle.
I was corrected, I thought it was pronounced ag (rhymes with gag) yoo luh but my Spanglish buddy told me it's uh GEE luh with a hard G like "Get some!" 😉
I’m glad they performed good, cause I have tons of it. Also kudos on that pronunciation, that’s the correct one. 😎
😎👊
I shoot alot of this in my 22LR guns, as well as several of my handgun calibers. It is always very reliable & relatively clean ammo. It also seems to be at a more value price when i find it in stock at most places compared to other manufacturers.
Yessir. Great deal and performance.
Really like Aguila Ammo we shoot a lot of it Great Jelly Test Tools Stay Safe Stay 2A Strong 🇺🇸
Thank you sir. It's good stuff.
Aguila Super Extra 40gr is great ammo. Especially for the price.
Absolutely.😎👍
Thanks for the testing !! I have shot that ammo and functions good , so far !! Thanks for the video !!
😎👊
They did the job, I have some of the Super Extra Copper Plated Hollow Points, I think they are 36 or 38gr, But the muzzle velocity is 1,285 fps, So, High velocity, I've not had a chance to fire any yet, But I believe they will do fine, Thanks for the testing. 👍 🇺🇸
Yep, I have a decent amount of those too.
Ahgeelah seems to be very good , if I ever get a 22lr I will load on some. Thanks for testing !
😎👊
I was worried when i read the title but good to see your test. I have a few bricks of Aguila. Good Shootn
😎👊
Jelly time. No More White Box😭 Good stuff with Super Extra. May have tumbled because base is slightly cupped. Nice job.
White box is my sworn enemy.
@@ToolsandTargets I was a little surprised that the Super Extra did tumble but it penetrated about 3 in farther than I thought from a pistol. It looks even dirtier shot in low light out of a revolver. Get the flame & a dirty hand. 🔥 ✋
@@billdye3530 😆😆😆
I typically have good results with Aguila copper plated round nose. However, every now again, I get a bad batch. I have shot thousands of them. When I have had a problem it is batch related and normally, it is a swelled case and jammed in the barrel. The round nose are much better than the hollow points.
😎👍
Nice looking ammo there! Hope you got the lead out of your P322 barrel. Appreciate the testing, thanks for sharing Tools!
I'm gonna try to get that cleaned up this weekend.
Great Test Tools! I have a ton of this ammo! Keep the videos coming! I look forward to them every day!
Thank you sir.😎
aside from cci aguila super extra is only bulk ammo i buy
Definitely ran great.
I'm impressed with the Aguila, even the bulk pack. I understand that bulk allows the ammo to shift around in shipping and makes for loose bullets and so forth but the Aguila looks like it was better made Before it was unceremoniously dumped in a large box and was shipped 2-3 times to get to my door. The box of 50 look like ammo used to be made when I was a kid 45 years ago.
Nice! This is the brand I use for range and target practice when handgun shooting. Cheap and the most consistent reliable ammo I've found. 380 rounds are $23.99 for 50 at my local gun shop.
🦅 Aguila Jelly Time!!! Have to check them in the Sig, hopefully you Got the Led Out of it! 😎Some kind of paper target thats not too thick in front of crono could help deflect powder maybe? without slowing it down any! TX22 to the rescue!
I haven't cleaned it yet. Gonna try to get to it this weekend.👍
have to do a borescope video before and after lol! Im sure it will clean up but what a pain huh! Happy Friday! pew pewwww
@@Nutty.357 Definitely.😆
Good video and great ammo! I run Aguila along with CCI in all of my 22s.
Thank you sir. Some good stuff.
I have cases of these rounds. Most accurate of all my 22lr rounds. I see why now.
😎👍
This Aguila - short A -gee - La short a, this 22LR ammo is the best I've found to run reliably in my Walther ppq22 LR 5-in semi-auto pistol. The bulk boxes have a waxy coating on them the individual 50 packs do not and run a little cleaner. I need 40 grain jacketed minimum 1255 ft per second to run reliably in this gun. This Aquila 22LR 40 grain 1255 super extra is the most bang for the buck that I found for this particular gun. Best price I have found during these times is just over 6 cents per round from Midway USA on sale with free shipping special. Thank you for your informative videos
😎👍
I just put them in a metal tin and hose em down with brake cleaner. Wax gone, beautiful smooth and shiny. Run flawless after.
I love the smell of aguila. That peanut butter powder is money. And it shoots good too,
😆😆😆
Good solid B+ ammo (pre-grade inflation). Happy to buy it at a good price. I prefer CCI, but if you’ve got a .22 that has somewhat lighter firing pin strikes the Super Extra is a great alternative.
I believe the Aguila’s smell is characteristic of all “Eley Primed” rimfire ammo. It’s a form of advertising lol; I smell that at the range and think “someone brought Aguila”
The Aguila Super Extras remind me of mini mags. Very respectable ammo and reliable. Thanks for your videos!
Just picked up a weather p22 ca about an hour ago and 2 boxes of this ammo hope it runs well will be taking it to range tomorrow
It is really great ammo, maybe it's the new mini-mag.? I/we enjoyed your test sir.... especially using a pistol for the entire test.!
I think they use Eley priming in the cartridge. Both standard & hi0vel. I have several bricks put away.
I have heard the same about the Eley priming compound. From what I've heard, that's where the odd smell comes from.👍
I just picked up 2000 rds. of this stuff at a great price, I have never shot it before. Glad I got it now, the consistency was on point.👍 I hope I have the same results.😁
This is usually what I grab for range plinking. Always runs great in my stuff.😎
Pretty consistent stuff, and the good thing is I almost always see some on the shelves. What do you think of a keltec sub 2000? They interested me in the past but I never got one, and just recently I seen one for a song and a dance with some m- carbo upgrades, could be fun. Have a good one brother I will see you on the next one.
I had considered buying one a few years ago myself but never did. They're crazy high priced now if you buy it new.😣
Yep that Super Extra has Always Worked Good for Me in Any of My Tool's, I Usually Buy the Hollerpoints too, Thanks for These Tests and Showing Us What Works Good, Proud Member of the LGB/FJB CLUB

Nice ammo, and further evidence that "just" a .22lr would really mess up your day. Thanks for the test.
The Eagle has landed!
Pretty well I might add.
🦅🦅🦅
Very good! Ive got a box of it right now! I’ll save it for a special occasion!
Sunday best ammo!😆
We do the same with ours...why blow it up when we can shoot automatch and thunderbolts first...
Those rounds did pretty good. Good consistency also. Maybe it was the Taurus. Lol. I wonder if changing the pistol and doing the test again would change the outcome. Another great video tools!! Thanks!!!
Thank you sir.😆
Viva A-gee-lah!. 😁 Thanks for testing this. I just got a P17 and am investigating ammo. It looks like this would be a good practice ammo companion to the Aguila Interceptor. It also seems like if you needed to use it for defense it would not be the worst choice.
Im happy to see you didnt have any issues with the Aguila. Im'a have to grab me some next time i see it available👍👍. Thanks for the test bro
Definitely some good stuff.👍
Sportsmans guide had them for like $32/500 rounds both the super extra hollow and round nose. I bought 500 of each for the wife’s new tx22 compact.
I run tons of Aguila ammo. Good stuff from my experience.
I have the worst luck w/Aguila out of my Rough Rider. I typically buy in bulk and its either the Aguila or Remington Thunderbolt and Remington is far more reliable through my Rough Rider, and since I do most of my plinking w/my Rough Rider (100-150 rounds per range visit)......it's a big deal. With Remington I might get 1 dud per 100, with the Aguila its at least a half dozen that don't fire and about a dozen take more than one strike to fire. Granted it's a Heritage Rough Rider, but it feels like paying the extra penny per round for the Thunderbolt is worth it. I've had zero issues out of my rifle.
Interesting. I would definitely go with the Thunderbolt with that big of a difference. I've never really had much issue with Thunderbolt out of anything in the past.
Went AK shopping today and found 2 more hand tools I want. Damn this addiction!!
😂😂😂 Get em all!
Yeah Aguila is pretty good stuff! The only down side is the smell from the primer
Apart FROM MY Winchester WHITE BOX (2000 ROUNDS + bore cleaner )... I have 3000 rounds of Aquila, both 38 gr. and 40 gr. Thank goodness.
😆😆😆
Next time you eat spare ribs put some bones in your gel. That would be interesting to see the effects.
That's a perfect way to make the gel a one time use thing. It's pretty much impossible to get stuff like that out of it.
I've been buying ammo when I can find it and afford it but did not know how good/bad it is.
Thank you for showing me.
BTW... I rhink I got.lucky on most purchases.
😂 I believe the chronograph is trying to draw out the F bombs, and the G-D out of you again...🤣🤣🤣
😆😆😆
Norma has a great sale going on. Buy 1 9 mm get one 50 rd box of 22lr free. And spend $50.00 get free shipping. Ordered some asap.
😎👍
I use it in my S&W 22 compact. One type I won't use is the Federal Auto-Match .stove pipes in my compact .
Thoroughly enjoyed the video. Love those Boolatz.
Also, I was pleasantly surprised of the "Aguila" spanish pronunciation. Next you will be calling them "Baalaz".😊
Thanks again.
There you go. My favorite 22lr round. We used to go through a thousand rounds in one day at the range. We reduced to 500 because they got more expensive. How much they cost in your neck of the woods? I miss the days when I paid $22 for a 500 round brick.
I got several of these 250 boxes for $12.99 from RK back around Black Friday.
I paid 8 cents a round for this stuff this week...a little on the high side, but maybe the most consistent bulk .22 we buy...we shoot it sparingly, kind of our range stash within the range stash...
🇦🇺😎👍Happy Saturday my friend….70deg f down on the prison island…good test mate , it’s very expensive down here for some reason , not sure why… catch you on the next one ✌️😎🏁
Perfect temps. Have a great weekend, brother!
I like how Aguila smells when shooting. "It smells like...victory!" Lol 😆
Love this ammo. Accurate and very consistent firing ammo. Cheap and functional. What more can you ask for???
I've always thought it was pronounced
Ag u la
Lol!!
Always been a dependable 22 round
Excellent video as usual 👌
Thank you sir.😎
Bought 500 rounds (250+250) Aguila 40gn at Dunhams for $38.50 otd ... $0.077 each = 13 rounds /$1.
Ordered a KelTec P17 at RKguns for $217 otd ... hopefully ship to store later this week. 👍👍 HNY
Nice.😎👍
Ran a few through the Beretta M9 yesterday with no failures, Good video as always Buddy.
Appreciate ya!
My ruger american rimfire really likes that round. Its about all that I buy now.
I have tons of it too.
It's hard to understand what some of the other companies are doing when they load 22,
Also I'm looking forward to you getting hold of the new federal punch 22 magnum any idea when we might see that you'll.
I don't get it either. As soon as I can find that Punch wmr in stock somewhere I'm gonna order some. Can't seem to find it anywhere.
Well I’m amazed at this one Tools see u on the next video buddy GOD BLESS
😎👊
Great video please make one about federal punch 22wmr
Thank you sir. I will as soon as I can find some in stock to order.😆
I got a thousand rounds of this, I get a few misfires. It doesn't always eject from the Kel Tec P-17, but it works great in the P322. Seems to be accurate.
