6 .22 pistols and 300+ rounds with no failures. I know what .22 bullets I’m buying next. Thank you sir for all of your informative and enjoyable “every man” reviews!
Holy cow, you guys are good shots! I really enjoy seeing a dad and his son out just having fun shooting and having a good time. Thanks for taking us along.
Eley priming is what you smell at a small-bore NRA match. As a car enthusiast as well, I liken it to the smell of 110 octane racing fuel as it is exhausted from a race engine. 😁
Aguila uses distinct smelling Eley primer compound in some of their 22 ammo. I noted that even the ammo not marked with "Eley primer" has a similar/same smell. They may have acquired the formula for making their own version of it. And Eley is top notch 22 ammunition.
Another great video boys! The .22 is great, you can shoot a lot for sport and target and it's economical. The Aguila ammo is proved to be a quality product.
Good shooting! Nothing like pops and son shooting together. My dad is far sway now and not in the best of health to go do outdoor things anymore. Enjoy your guy's time as much as possible, I definitely too it for granted. Keep up the great videos!
@@mixup98 you too bud! You guys should do a video of your most memorable times together! From California with much love! We don't have much freedom like you guys! Happy holidays sir!
During the infamous .22LR shortages of 2020-21, about all I could get Aguila. I found it reliable and accurate. In fact, even though the .22LR shortage has lifted in my area, I still go with Aguila. 👍
Hello Peter. I am going to stock up on Aguila ammo when it goes on sale again, and yes, it really is good reliable ammo. Thanks for the feedback and have a safe and Happy New Year!
@@mixup98 Thanks. Whereabouts is that in Nevada? I’m from AZ, but have spent a lot of time in NV. You and your son have a great New Year’s Eve and a fantastic 2024. Really enjoy your videos.
@@peterrussell798 A few times a year Sportsmans Warehouse will have a 250 box of Aguila .22 ammo on sale for $15, which comes out to 3 bucks for a box of 50! Stay safe and Happy New Year!
I really like that they seal the ammo in a bag before they box it. I used to hate Aguila .22 because of the smell but eventually I got over it. It’s good stuff.
Aguila, super extra 38gr hp and 40gr solid bulk ammo is my go to for 22lr plinking. IT JUST WORKS IN EVERYTHING! Also... ruger mark 2 is SUCH a great lil pistol.
I started buying this and the 40gr solid in 2020 because it was the only kind available at the time. I've bought it ever since then. It works great in my Diamondback Sidekick and Stevens 64.
While watching the video I kept saying dang! I wish I was out there with those guys having fun! I have my own pretty nice shooting range on my property but I hurt my neck recently lifting something and really not in any shape to go to the range.
2:50 Yes! That was my first pistol that I got that same year from Sportsman's Warehouse when it was over at their old location on Man-o-War Blvd in Lexington Ky. Mine had different grips though. Another really fun .22 if you can find it is the Feather AT-22.
Love Aquila 22 ammo, usually shoot Super Extra 40 gr copper coated bullet. Bought some in bulk, 500 per box, a few weeks ago. The wax was not only on the bullet but also on the cases. I tried to shoot them in 35 degree weather and the rounds would not function in the magazines because the wax was cold. I put about 200 at a time in a plastic quart bowl and used my wife's hair dryer to warm the up, then using a paper towel I massaged them to take the wax off, repeated this twice per batch. Took the ammo back out in the cold and the ammo worked great in both the gun and magazines.
Remarkable performance out of a variety of pistols. I wouldn't have expected ANY brand of ammo to perform perfectly under that scenario. Always enjoy your videos. Something about "thunder in the hills/valley". All the best!!
I can almost guarantee that Federal or Winchester .22 ammo would not have performed perfectly through my seven pistols. CCI Mini Mag ammo probably would have done very well. Yes, I was extremely pleased with the performance of the Aguila ammo and I plan on buying more.
Good to hear that Aguila ammo is reliable. It's one of the few brands that's regularly available in my area. Also good to hear that it's reliable in the TX-22. I picked up one of the Competition models back in July, and plan on ordering the conversion slide from Taurus, so I can swap back and forth between the Competition and "normal" configurations, depending on what I'm planning to use it for any particular day.
Was looking for a different video but came across yours and had to watch. I loved Aguila so much I brought 35k rounds when it was 4 cents a round! Glad I did! 22lr is just plain cheap fun.
I also love Aguila .22 ammo and I'm highly jealous that you have 35k rounds! I'm glad you found my video and thank you for taking the time to watch and comment on it.
Aguila is by far the most entertaining 22lr ammo simply because of their vast range alone! The missus and I will grab a 4 boxes of that exact ammo around this time of year at Sportsman's for our plinkers (including a pair of His & Hers Ruger Mark IV's) because it's on sale. Great video, sir! 👍
I wish I could get my missus to go shooting with me. At least I have my son to take shooting. Thanks for the kind compliment, stay safe, and enjoy your Ruger pistols.
I love that ammo! It's just as good as mini mags in my model 60, the only ammo that performs better in my model 60 is federal lightning rounds, but they changed the name to automatch but it's the exact same bullet
Nice selection of 22lr's you guys were firing , I picked up some of that ammo a couple of months ago, and it's run fine in my guns. I recently picked up a older Taurus pt22 with wooden grips and it's fired everything I put in it, just wish I had ore than one magazine. I like watching you guys out having fun together and you both great shots, thanks for talking us along with you
J G there are a lot of PT22 magazines available for reasonable prices. I love my Taurus PT22, rosewood grips that are actually bigger than the Beretta Bobcats
Hello brother. Another great video. Thank you for sharing. I love every .22 you shot with the exception of the Wather. I've never shot one. Just for extra reference I've used the same Aguila ammo in my little berretta Bobcat with great results too. It is sensitive for me as well. But, as a matter of fact, I have it loaded with the same right now. Looking forward to more. God bless all here.
I have shot that ammo quite a bit in my .22's I agree with you on the smell after you fire it. Very different. I have never had a problem with it. Not necessarily the most accurate ammo, but good enough for plinking. Great video as always!
This Video, Marksmanship, Presentation, Wisdom, as well as Product/Aguila is PHENOMENALLY SUPERB ! Btw...I think I'm falling for that S&W 22 Pistol. 👊🏽🎯
Been a fan of yours since the model 60 snub video. Have complimented you before on this, but that 75 yard shot you hit with that snub nose was a thing of beauty. Love the channel! Glad your son is getting more involved..
Your compliments are always appreciated, and yes, I still have my model 60, which I shot just the other day. My son and his wife and I just shot a video yesterday and it should be posted Friday morning and we hope you enjoy it.
I bought the 40 grain Super Extra last year and recently opened it up. This batch presented an issue where the brass swells up in a Heritage wheel gun, and ultimately causes the cylinder to seize up. Thanks for the video n' God bless
Love this ammo but won’t use it in my Heritage again, had the same problem with this ammo. All my semi-autos love it. And I also use the 40 Grain round nose.
Seems odd to have a .22 revolver bind up, and I have shot over a hundred thousand rounds through .22 revolvers. So the case head swells against the breech face? I am having trouble visualizing what is wrong.
Always enjoy your videos sir!! Especially when you and your son are spending quality time together. Thank you for the time and effort you put into each and every one. Keep them rolling in
GREAT VIDEO, I LOVE MY 22lr pistols and rifles because of the FUN AND COST FACTOR. There are SO MANY different kinds of 22lrs and some that are JUST NEAT to own and shoot. I wish I was able to get ANY 22lr ammo for that cheap, the best I can do NOW is Walmart has Federal Auto Match (325rds-$21.47+tax). I have small collection of 22lr pistols: High Standard Sport King 6.5", Kel-Tec P17, Walther PPK/s (old steel frame), Browning Buckmark Bullseye 7.25", Ruger Government Target 7.25", Beretta 71 Jaguar with 3.5"and 6"" barrels, Beretta 76W and last but not LEAST Beretta 87BB. The Beretta 71 Jaguar is the MOST RELIABLE 22lr pistol, it EATS EVERYTHING.You realize that it has to be PRETTY GOOD because the Israeli Massad and their Air Marshals use them. Love ALL YOUR VIDEOS but prefer the 22lr ones because of the cost and where you can shoot them. One indoor range I go to can't shoot HP RIFLES. I wish I owned property where I could have my own private place to shoot even if only for 22lrs but the BIGGER STUFF would be BETTER. KEEP UP MAKING VIDEOS, I'LL WATCH THEM. 😁🤗👍
Got a lot of this when I could find 22 LR...During Pandemic glad it has a good review from you...got it for a Ruger Wrangler I have yet to fire new ....Think I got like 2000 rds of this!!🙂
Good shootin. Nice collection of .22lr handguns. I love that Aguila ammo although the Super Extra is all I have ever tried, but I never had any failures.
That the stuff I use, it has those great jacketed / copper round noses. I bought many boxes about 3 years ago, never had an issue with them. Good stuff!
MY TX-22 had barrel issues. I loved the pistol and the trigger, but it wouldn't hit the broad side of a barn (it wasn't just me shooting it). There was something wrong with the bore. After a year of calling them every 3-4 months and waiting for them to send me a new bore and getting the runaround , I sold it to a gunsmith who was cool with that issue.
Taurus started well with the TX22, but then went through a period where their supplier was sending them bad barrels, poor rifling &/or tooling chatter marks. The really bad part is Taurus used them, & also sent them out as replacements for...bad barrels.
Great informative video as always. Aguila ammo occasionally finds its way here in Europe, so I will surely buy some if I find any. Big fan of the Ruger, but loved the Buckmark and the tiny Beretta.
Hello Jon and good evening from Nevada. I have had my Buckmark in a handful of videos, but I've never done a complete review on it. Maybe I will do a review on it in early spring.
You guys have too much fun! I’ve found Aquila to be very reliable and nearly as accurate as corresponding CCI and similarly priced. Both brands are superb as are most Federal.
We certainly love to have fun when we are out making our videos. And yes, Aguila is very reliable, and I usually pick up a box or two when I can catch it on sale.
This is what I use in my Rugar AR556 with the CMMG conversion bolt. Can rapid fire a full 25 rd Mag with NO faults. Same with my Henry Evil Roy. Have not run them through the Rugar MKII as it needs a new mag. Love to rock and roll the AR with these.
Bendiciones para toda su familia. Me gustan mucho sus videos y me da gusto que les hayan gustado las municiones Aguila de mi país México. Me gustaría verlos con una pistola mexicana como la Trejo cal 22lr que es un clon de la 1911 está hecha de puro acero o también con las pistolas Mendoza creo que apenas están entrando al mercado estadounidense. Saludos y bendiciones.
Great video .. I’d say you deserve credit for a great job of cleaning and maintaining your guns. That has a lot to do with no mis-fires. I’ll be keeping a eye open for some of that ammo. 👍
I guess they weren't seeing it through the viewfinder but.....I wouldn't want to be that rock at 150 yards! He was laying them right in there. Offhand, no less!
So the store I go to got about 200 boxes of these in. By lunch time there were 3 left. Mind you they were on sale for 12 or 13$ for 250 rounds. People love this ammo.
What I have found with the Aguila .22 LR ammo, is that it varies quite a bit from lot to lot. I ran one lot through my Browning Buckmark and Ruger 10/22 with no problems. Another lot wouldn't even load into the magazines of either firearm without hanging up. They were too long. Not enough to notice with the naked eye, but enough to hang up in the magazines. And my magazines were very clean. The same lot ran through my bolt actions and revolvers just fine.
Bought an entire case of this when ammo was starting to get scarce. My TX22 eats it well enough, but it sometimes jams the cylinder on my LCR .22. Go figure. Works well in my Ruger M77/22 bolt rifle and 10/22.
Great video mix-up and son!! I own a Bobcat that I shoot CCI 40 grn blazer with no problem. Gonna try aguilla . Really impressed with the Smith and Wesson. Very intimidating and cool. Taurus just came out with a TX 22 RDO compact. On the cover of Guns and ammo this month. Looking forward for you guys review on it.
Please let me know if your Bobcat likes the Aguila ammo. I have looked at the TX22 compact and I hope to buy one in the near future and do a review on it.
Haven't have much luck with Aguila ammunition. I own one Mark II / 22/45 stainless steel just like yours. Having my right arm only, i take it apart to clean it, and it takes me 20 to 30 minutes to put it back together. I also modified with a cool red dot. I had it for 20 years or so. Bought it new for under 200$, +-.
These ammo reviews are extremely helpful for thosr who are stocking up on ammo. Before going to the gun shows i look for the most recent reviews so I'm up to date on whats good and what to avoid. Keep yp the good work Mixup98!
Good shooting as always Guys. I have about 1,700 rounds of the Super Extra because it's dependable & was on sale at Academy. Rumor is the odd smell is from being dipped in Jose Quervo for lubrication. Lol. It works. Have a Safe & Happy Holiday season.
During the nineties, I had access to a Colt 1911 conversion unit and a box of 500 rounds of Federal bulk pack .22 ammo. I fitted the Colt conversion unit to my old .38 Super. My shooting partners and I used up the ammo in several sessions. There were no jams and no.misfires. Seems that Federal had better quality control during those days. Great shooting Mixup 98 and Son !!
I've had decent luck with these as well. And also noticed the odd smell! Thought I had Covid, but no, just this particular ammo smells different. However, it does cause issues in my Heritage Rough Rider. I've always done a decent job taking care of that gun, but with this ammo the casings get lodged in the chamber after firing. Takes a decent hit on the ejector rod to get the casings out. I'm not sure how hard these are on the autoloaders, but I'd be curious if they don't also experience some extra resistance coming out of the chamber after firing, and would perhaps damage extractors over an extended period of time. Love your videos guys, keep up the great work!
I hope Aguila is available out here. Armscor ammo has been expensive lately. The other alternative is Magtech but they ran out of .22 ammo during a recent trade show. I began shooting with a .22. Now I am back to .22s,. Nice video Mixup and Son!!
i love this Aguila stuff in my savage mark 2 and my keltec p17 loves it but i shot it in my Winchester wildcat rifle it don't shoot it well in the ruger 1022 mag in it but it shots ok in the wildcats original mag this is great stuff in most semiautos pistols great video
This was a interesting video and I own three of the 22lrs that you used in this video. I have the Smith & Wesson m&p 1522 AR rifle, Mark II Ruger and the Taurus 22 TX competition. I will have to agree they Taurus tx22 it will shoot anything that I have put through it and I consider it to be one of my most favorite 22LR pistols to shoot. I was a little surprised when you said that your Smith & Wesson m&p 22 could be a little ammo sensitive, because my Smith & Wesson m&p 22 will shoot anything.
When I first bought my 15-22 it wouldn’t make it thru a 25 round mag without jamming once or twice but after a couple thousand rounds it broke in . Now a days it will shoot anything I have
Mixup98, I hope you do a follow-up on your Walter P22 from the first review on it where you and your son were having trouble with it. I'M look very close to buying one. Thank you and your son for putting out some awesome videos of different pistols. The good and the bad of them.
I sent my PPQ pistol back to Walther and they sent it back ten days later with a new barrel. My Walther review showed us shooting the pistol after it was returned to me. I was very impressed with Walther customer service and a link to the Walther video is shown at the very end of this Aguila ammo video. th-cam.com/video/Oldvw8tLUP4/w-d-xo.html
Got a few thousand rounds of this stuff stacked, and the worst I can find to say about it so far is that it smells "odd" (it makes me think "pissy diapers") when fired, and like most .22LR, it's fairly sooty/dirty. So far, I haven't encountered anything chambered for .22LR that won't eat it like a kid eats M&Ms. Even my ARs run absolutely fine on it when I put in the CMMG Bravo conversion. Aside from one stovepipe, my 10/22 has done absolutely nothing but "eat 'em and smile" every time I stick a mag (whether a stock 10 rounder, Butler Creek "Steel Lips" 25 rounders, or Ruger BX-25s) of it in. My score: 9.95/10 - will definitely be buying more as availability and budget allows.
Aquila has been working very diligently in the last few years to improve quality and consistency. I've tested older Super Extra against new production, and get very different results. Don't have the figures at hand, but the older lots had much greater variation in velocity with much higher spread and standard deviation. The distinctive smell of Aquila is due to... bird crap. Seriously, they use a propellant manufactured with guanite. Unfortunately, their product improvement doesn't seem to be across the board, particularly with their center-fire ammo. I got a great deal on Aquila 115 gr 9mm FMJ a couple of years ago, but it has been the most inconsistent pistol ammo I've ever used, with way too many FTE's. My go-to test guns are a G17 and a Hi-Power, which eat just about anything I feed them. Exceptions have been a few brands of remanufactured ammo, some subsonic PPU, some Hirtenberger surplus, and the Aquila. I can't see a reason to get Aquila, unless nothing else is available, since it now tends to cost as much as my ammo standard, which is CCI.
I love all of your videos but this one is a blessing because I been considering buying this ammo. Since you did this video I will get this ammo because they got this for a good price at the local Rural King. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Hello Douglas. You won't be disappointed if you pick up some of the Aguila ammo at Rural King. My local sporting goods store ran out of this ammo rather quickly and I'm glad I bought a few boxes when I did.
I suspect the problem in the past with the Beretta Bobcat was with Aguila's standard velocity ammos, as is the experience I've had with both the Bobcat and the Taurus PT22, they prefer hotter ammo.
Super Extra is my favorite 22lr round. My wife and I both have TX22's and it shoots well in both of them. I have been tempted to buy the Baretta, but have worried about how picky it is on ammo. I may give it a shot (excuse the pun) in the future. Thanks for the review!
I recently got a Sig P322 but haven't had a chance to shoot it yet. I was going out to buy some 9mm and saw this ammo in stock, and decided to pick some up because I remembered this video. On Monday I'll hit the range and see how it performs in the Sig.
@@mixup98 Nah nah man, I meant I went just to pick up some 9mm then while I was there and saw this in stock and decided to get some of it too for my .22, not that the Aguila was 9mm lol.
@@mixup98 Performance update, 3 failures out of 200 rounds(and one of them may have been my fault) in the P322. Given that the gun wasn't yet broken in and that the P322 can be kinda particular from what I've heard, I figure that coulda gone worse.
@@DShiflet01 If my math is correct you had a 1.5% failure rate, which is pretty darn good for .22 ammo, and being fired from a brand new firearm. Thanks for the update. Hopefully I will be able to review a Sig P322 someday.
VERY NICE VIDEO for checking RELIABILITY of the Agulia ammo. I'm a BIG 22lr LOVER (pistols and rifles). Turns out we have a similar taste in 22lr pistols. I've got a Ruger MkII Government Target Model, Browning Buckmark Silhouette with an extra Bullseye barrel, Kel-Tec P17, Walther PPK/s (steel frame), Beretta 71 Jaguar (both barrels)and S&W AR-15 22lr rifle. Like I said I REALLY enjoy shooting my 22lrs, cheaper to shoot, FUN TO SHOOT, easier to find places to shoot, not TOO LOUD and OBVIOUSLY no RECOIL. THANK YOU for this INFORMATIVE and interesting video, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.😉👍😁😂😂😂 13:41
Heck yeah, the .22 Long Rifle is my favorite cartridge and I love shooting rimfire firearms. Aguila Super Extra, CCI Min Mag, and Remington Golden Bullet are my favorite rimfire rounds and most of my guns love them all. My son and I thank you for the nice compliment.
Aguilla ammo is top notch in my opinion!
Yesssssssss
Top Notch would Eley or SMK match ammo but aguilla is good plinking ammo
and your point is?
It is very good but I've always had the most consistency with the cci standard velocity
Definitely top notch. I've shot thousands of these that were eley primed.
6 .22 pistols and 300+ rounds with no failures. I know what .22 bullets I’m buying next.
Thank you sir for all of your informative and enjoyable “every man” reviews!
Holy cow, you guys are good shots! I really enjoy seeing a dad and his son out just having fun shooting and having a good time. Thanks for taking us along.
These 2 need a TV show on what good families do for fun
Eley priming is used by Aquila and has a unique smell
I like the ammo but it smells like cat piss to me
Eley priming is what you smell at a small-bore NRA match. As a car enthusiast as well, I liken it to the smell of 110 octane racing fuel as it is exhausted from a race engine. 😁
They stop making the aguila with eley prime in 2018 as far as I know...
Aguila uses distinct smelling Eley primer compound in some of their 22 ammo. I noted that even the ammo not marked with "Eley primer" has a similar/same smell. They may have acquired the formula for making their own version of it. And Eley is top notch 22 ammunition.

I first bought Agillia cos it was cheap, but i keep buying it because all my .22lr's enjoy it
Yeah it seems to work pretty good in all of our 22 handguns. As well as CCI Mini Mag. I pretty much only buy CCI and Aguila anymore.
Been a fan of yours since the model 60 snub video. Have complimented you before on this, but that 75 yard shot you hit with that snub nose was a thing of beauty. Love the channel! Glad your son is getting more involved..
Your compliments are always appreciated, and yes, I still have my model 60, which I shot just the other day. My son and his wife and I just shot a video yesterday and it should be posted Friday morning and we hope you enjoy it.
@@mixup98 sounds great, Mix-up.. can't wait. Have 3 Smith and Wesson revolvers. But, my model 60 is my most cherished..
My M&P 15-22 pistols hate the Aguila ammo. They really love the 325 rd Federal Boxes from Walmart though.
I love my .22s and I'm so glad you and your son got out and had a great day of shooting. Doesn't get much better.
I bought the 40 grain Super Extra last year and recently opened it up. This batch presented an issue where the brass swells up in a Heritage wheel gun, and ultimately causes the cylinder to seize up.
Thanks for the video n' God bless
Had the same exact problem! Also doesn’t cycle through my Rossi.
Love this ammo but won’t use it in my Heritage again, had the same problem with this ammo.
All my semi-autos love it. And I also use the 40 Grain round nose.
Thanks for the comment, I have a Rossi also.
I believe this is the first time hearing about problems with Aguila not working in a revolver! Luckily I have never encountered this problem
Seems odd to have a .22 revolver bind up, and I have shot over a hundred thousand rounds through .22 revolvers.
So the case head swells against the breech face? I am having trouble visualizing what is wrong.
My favorite 22lr ammo and hollow point also. Your right on the smell also
Great video for 22 LR review nice 7 guns well thanks for sharing looking forward to your next video
Always enjoy your videos sir!! Especially when you and your son are spending quality time together. Thank you for the time and effort you put into each and every one. Keep them rolling in
Great shooting Mixup! Out of these guns I have the TX22.....Great plinker!
Thanks for the compliment, Dan, and have a great weekend.
GREAT VIDEO, I LOVE MY 22lr pistols and rifles because of the FUN AND COST FACTOR. There are SO MANY different kinds of 22lrs and some that are JUST NEAT to own and shoot. I wish I was able to get ANY 22lr ammo for that cheap, the best I can do NOW is Walmart has Federal Auto Match (325rds-$21.47+tax). I have small collection of 22lr pistols: High Standard Sport King 6.5", Kel-Tec P17, Walther PPK/s (old steel frame), Browning Buckmark Bullseye 7.25", Ruger Government Target 7.25", Beretta 71 Jaguar with 3.5"and 6"" barrels, Beretta 76W and last but not LEAST Beretta 87BB. The Beretta 71 Jaguar is the MOST RELIABLE 22lr pistol, it EATS EVERYTHING.You realize that it has to be PRETTY GOOD because the Israeli Massad and their Air Marshals use them. Love ALL YOUR VIDEOS but prefer the 22lr ones because of the cost and where you can shoot them. One indoor range I go to can't shoot HP RIFLES. I wish I owned property where I could have my own private place to shoot even if only for 22lrs but the BIGGER STUFF would be BETTER. KEEP UP MAKING VIDEOS, I'LL WATCH THEM. 😁🤗👍
Got a lot of this when I could find 22 LR...During Pandemic glad it has a good review from you...got it for a Ruger Wrangler I have yet to fire new ....Think I got like 2000 rds of this!!🙂
My MK3 Ruger loves that Aguila Super Extra. Big 5 just had those 250 count boxes on sale.
Thanks for the detailed review. Was happy to see this ammo is good. ty again
Good shootin. Nice collection of .22lr handguns. I love that Aguila ammo although the Super Extra is all I have ever tried, but I never had any failures.
Some of the best .22 ammo that I've ever shot. I've used that ammo in many .22 pistols and rifles.
Both my Rossi RS22 and my Taurus TX22 shoots this ammo with no problems. Also the CCI Velocitors work very well in both.
Man, that's pretty good. Flawless across multiple firearms
That the stuff I use, it has those great jacketed / copper round noses. I bought many boxes about 3 years ago, never had an issue with them. Good stuff!
You're right Tom, it is good stuff and I'm hoping to review the Aguila .22 round nose ammo sometime in the near future. Should be another fun video.
I have had very good luck with Aguila ammo and I have the most problems with Armscor 22lr. Thanks for the video and keep shooting 😊.
MY TX-22 had barrel issues. I loved the pistol and the trigger, but it wouldn't hit the broad side of a barn (it wasn't just me shooting it). There was something wrong with the bore. After a year of calling them every 3-4 months and waiting for them to send me a new bore and getting the runaround , I sold it to a gunsmith who was cool with that issue.
Taurus started well with the TX22, but then went through a period where their supplier was sending them bad barrels, poor rifling &/or tooling chatter marks. The really bad part is Taurus used them, & also sent them out as replacements for...bad barrels.
Well done guys! Another entertaining and informative video.👍
And I agree with the quality of the ammo. Good stuff.👍
Great informative video as always. Aguila ammo occasionally finds its way here in Europe, so I will surely buy some if I find any. Big fan of the Ruger, but loved the Buckmark and the tiny Beretta.
Hello Jon and good evening from Nevada. I have had my Buckmark in a handful of videos, but I've never done a complete review on it. Maybe I will do a review on it in early spring.
You guys have too much fun! I’ve found Aquila to be very reliable and nearly as accurate as corresponding CCI and similarly priced. Both brands are superb as are most Federal.
We certainly love to have fun when we are out making our videos. And yes, Aguila is very reliable, and I usually pick up a box or two when I can catch it on sale.
This is what I use in my Rugar AR556 with the CMMG conversion bolt. Can rapid fire a full 25 rd Mag with NO faults. Same with my Henry Evil Roy. Have not run them through the Rugar MKII as it needs a new mag. Love to rock and roll the AR with these.
That CMMG conversion is great. Honestly if I had one gun to bug out with, it would be the AR with that bolt and the 556 bolt.
Good endorsement of the Aguila .22LR ammo. I like it too.
👍🤠 👍😎
I have been impressed with the Aguila Super Extras, especially at the low prices they've been going for.
Bendiciones para toda su familia. Me gustan mucho sus videos y me da gusto que les hayan gustado las municiones Aguila de mi país México. Me gustaría verlos con una pistola mexicana como la Trejo cal 22lr que es un clon de la 1911 está hecha de puro acero o también con las pistolas Mendoza creo que apenas están entrando al mercado estadounidense. Saludos y bendiciones.
Great video .. I’d say you deserve credit for a great job of cleaning and maintaining your guns. That has a lot to do with no mis-fires. I’ll be keeping a eye open for some of that ammo. 👍
I love it when you guys make the cans jump around.
👍🤠 👍😎
In my opinion Agula and CCI are the best 22lr out there. I've never had a bad round from them. Can't say that about Federal, remington or Winchester.
Most impressed with the BB. I'd say that Buckmark was made for your son. Inside 200 yards nothing is safe from him
I guess they weren't seeing it through the viewfinder but.....I wouldn't want to be that rock at 150 yards! He was laying them right in there. Offhand, no less!
I have had excellent results with that stuff- it’s my go to right now.
So the store I go to got about 200 boxes of these in. By lunch time there were 3 left. Mind you they were on sale for 12 or 13$ for 250 rounds. People love this ammo.
What I have found with the Aguila .22 LR ammo, is that it varies quite a bit from lot to lot. I ran one lot through my Browning Buckmark and Ruger 10/22 with no problems. Another lot wouldn't even load into the magazines of either firearm without hanging up. They were too long. Not enough to notice with the naked eye, but enough to hang up in the magazines. And my magazines were very clean. The same lot ran through my bolt actions and revolvers just fine.
Quality Ammo I have a favorite 10/22 Target Ammo from them.Awile back Picked up some of these 40gr Run great in My 22/45 Tac.Very Accurate.👍🏻
Bought an entire case of this when ammo was starting to get scarce. My TX22 eats it well enough, but it sometimes jams the cylinder on my LCR .22. Go figure. Works well in my Ruger M77/22 bolt rifle and 10/22.
I’m waiting to try that ammo in my Ruger 77/22 !
I’m dealing with snow right now !
Jams the cylinder on my Smith 43C revolver too.
Great video mix-up and son!! I own a Bobcat that I shoot CCI 40 grn blazer with no problem. Gonna try aguilla . Really impressed with the Smith and Wesson. Very intimidating and cool. Taurus just came out with a TX 22 RDO compact. On the cover of Guns and ammo this month. Looking forward for you guys review on it.
Please let me know if your Bobcat likes the Aguila ammo. I have looked at the TX22 compact and I hope to buy one in the near future and do a review on it.
@@mixup98 copy that
My old original Ruger 22 automatic prefers Cci minimags and is my go to ammo in all my 22s
Can’t wait for the review of this ammo through rifles!
Hopefully in early spring we can do a review using five or six rifles.
Haven't have much luck with Aguila ammunition. I own one Mark II / 22/45 stainless steel just like yours. Having my right arm only, i take it apart to clean it, and it takes me 20 to 30 minutes to put it back together. I also modified with a cool red dot. I had it for 20 years or so. Bought it new for under 200$, +-.
These ammo reviews are extremely helpful for thosr who are stocking up on ammo. Before going to the gun shows i look for the most recent reviews so I'm up to date on whats good and what to avoid. Keep yp the good work Mixup98!
I’ve shot quite a bit of the stuff in blue boxes and non plated bullets. I was very happy with their match pistol and rifle
Good shooting as always Guys. I have about 1,700 rounds of the Super Extra because it's dependable & was on sale at Academy. Rumor is the odd smell is from being dipped in Jose Quervo for lubrication. Lol. It works. Have a Safe & Happy Holiday season.
I wish I could shoot like that! Love my 22s.
During the nineties, I had access to a Colt 1911 conversion unit and a box of 500 rounds of Federal bulk pack .22 ammo.
I fitted the Colt conversion unit to my old .38 Super. My shooting partners and I used up the ammo in several sessions. There were no jams and no.misfires. Seems that Federal had better quality control during those days. Great shooting Mixup 98 and Son !!
What a Nice collection of .22's🧿
Excellent show! What a fun day at the range. 🤠👍🏻
I've had decent luck with these as well. And also noticed the odd smell! Thought I had Covid, but no, just this particular ammo smells different.
However, it does cause issues in my Heritage Rough Rider. I've always done a decent job taking care of that gun, but with this ammo the casings get lodged in the chamber after firing. Takes a decent hit on the ejector rod to get the casings out. I'm not sure how hard these are on the autoloaders, but I'd be curious if they don't also experience some extra resistance coming out of the chamber after firing, and would perhaps damage extractors over an extended period of time. Love your videos guys, keep up the great work!
I hope Aguila is available out here. Armscor ammo has been expensive lately. The other alternative is Magtech but they ran out of .22 ammo during a recent trade show.
I began shooting with a .22. Now I am back to .22s,. Nice video Mixup and Son!!
i love this Aguila stuff in my savage mark 2 and my keltec p17 loves it but i shot it in my Winchester wildcat rifle it don't shoot it well in the ruger 1022 mag in it but it shots ok in the wildcats original mag this is great stuff in most semiautos pistols great video
Great review! Thank you. Merry Christmas. God Bless and stay safe.
Same to you Joey.....thank you!
This was a interesting video and I own three of the 22lrs that you used in this video. I have the Smith & Wesson m&p 1522 AR rifle, Mark II Ruger and the Taurus 22 TX competition. I will have to agree they Taurus tx22 it will shoot anything that I have put through it and I consider it to be one of my most favorite 22LR pistols to shoot. I was a little surprised when you said that your Smith & Wesson m&p 22 could be a little ammo sensitive, because my Smith & Wesson
m&p 22 will shoot anything.
When I first bought my 15-22 it wouldn’t make it thru a 25 round mag without jamming once or twice but after a couple thousand rounds it broke in . Now a days it will shoot anything I have
Mixup98, I hope you do a follow-up on your Walter P22 from the first review on it where you and your son were having trouble with it. I'M look very close to buying one. Thank you and your son for putting out some awesome videos of different pistols. The good and the bad of them.
I sent my PPQ pistol back to Walther and they sent it back ten days later with a new barrel. My Walther review showed us shooting the pistol after it was returned to me. I was very impressed with Walther customer service and a link to the Walther video is shown at the very end of this Aguila ammo video. th-cam.com/video/Oldvw8tLUP4/w-d-xo.html
@mixup98 Thank you for your reply, Sir. It's good to see Walter stand behind their products. Keep up the good shooting and review of utter guns.
Got a few thousand rounds of this stuff stacked, and the worst I can find to say about it so far is that it smells "odd" (it makes me think "pissy diapers") when fired, and like most .22LR, it's fairly sooty/dirty. So far, I haven't encountered anything chambered for .22LR that won't eat it like a kid eats M&Ms. Even my ARs run absolutely fine on it when I put in the CMMG Bravo conversion. Aside from one stovepipe, my 10/22 has done absolutely nothing but "eat 'em and smile" every time I stick a mag (whether a stock 10 rounder, Butler Creek "Steel Lips" 25 rounders, or Ruger BX-25s) of it in. My score: 9.95/10 - will definitely be buying more as availability and budget allows.
I have been using Aguila Ammo in 22Lr, 9MM and 45acp for maybe 10 or 15 years...works all the time!!..
The bloopers are great.
Thank you Mike 👍😁
Aquila has been working very diligently in the last few years to improve quality and consistency. I've tested older Super Extra against new production, and get very different results. Don't have the figures at hand, but the older lots had much greater variation in velocity with much higher spread and standard deviation. The distinctive smell of Aquila is due to... bird crap. Seriously, they use a propellant manufactured with guanite. Unfortunately, their product improvement doesn't seem to be across the board, particularly with their center-fire ammo. I got a great deal on Aquila 115 gr 9mm FMJ a couple of years ago, but it has been the most inconsistent pistol ammo I've ever used, with way too many FTE's. My go-to test guns are a G17 and a Hi-Power, which eat just about anything I feed them. Exceptions have been a few brands of remanufactured ammo, some subsonic PPU, some Hirtenberger surplus, and the Aquila. I can't see a reason to get Aquila, unless nothing else is available, since it now tends to cost as much as my ammo standard, which is CCI.
Good morning Joe and thanks for the advice on the Aguila 9mm ammo. I just might pick some up and do a review on it and see what happens.
I love all of your videos but this one is a blessing because I been considering buying this ammo. Since you did this video I will get this ammo because they got this for a good price at the local Rural King. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Hello Douglas. You won't be disappointed if you pick up some of the Aguila ammo at Rural King. My local sporting goods store ran out of this ammo rather quickly and I'm glad I bought a few boxes when I did.
I suspect the problem in the past with the Beretta Bobcat was with Aguila's standard velocity ammos, as is the experience I've had with both the Bobcat and the Taurus PT22, they prefer hotter ammo.
Super Extra is my favorite 22lr round. My wife and I both have TX22's and it shoots well in both of them. I have been tempted to buy the Baretta, but have worried about how picky it is on ammo. I may give it a shot (excuse the pun) in the future. Thanks for the review!
That Kel Tec is the ticket!👍
I switched out the extractor on my M&P-15/22 with a Volquartsten. It's runs like a champ now and eats up even their dirtiest ammo.
Just got some of the Aguila, I like it shot in my 15-22. Thanks for the testing.
You're welcome Ira and have a great weekend!
@@mixup98 you too👍
Great video and nice set of plinkers in your collection, ammo seemed great by what you showed us.
I recently got a Sig P322 but haven't had a chance to shoot it yet. I was going out to buy some 9mm and saw this ammo in stock, and decided to pick some up because I remembered this video. On Monday I'll hit the range and see how it performs in the Sig.
I don't believe I have ever shot Aguila 9mm ammo. Please keep us all informed on how it performs at the range.
@@mixup98 Nah nah man, I meant I went just to pick up some 9mm then while I was there and saw this in stock and decided to get some of it too for my .22, not that the Aguila was 9mm lol.
@@DShiflet01 Oops....sorry about that. It's late and I'm tired. 🙂
@@mixup98 Performance update, 3 failures out of 200 rounds(and one of them may have been my fault) in the P322. Given that the gun wasn't yet broken in and that the P322 can be kinda particular from what I've heard, I figure that coulda gone worse.
@@DShiflet01 If my math is correct you had a 1.5% failure rate, which is pretty darn good for .22 ammo, and being fired from a brand new firearm. Thanks for the update. Hopefully I will be able to review a Sig P322 someday.
VERY NICE VIDEO for checking RELIABILITY of the Agulia ammo. I'm a BIG 22lr LOVER (pistols and rifles). Turns out we have a similar taste in 22lr pistols. I've got a Ruger MkII Government Target Model, Browning Buckmark Silhouette with an extra Bullseye barrel, Kel-Tec P17, Walther PPK/s (steel frame), Beretta 71 Jaguar (both barrels)and S&W AR-15 22lr rifle. Like I said I REALLY enjoy shooting my 22lrs, cheaper to shoot, FUN TO SHOOT, easier to find places to shoot, not TOO LOUD and OBVIOUSLY no RECOIL. THANK YOU for this INFORMATIVE and interesting video, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.😉👍😁😂😂😂 13:41
Heck yeah, the .22 Long Rifle is my favorite cartridge and I love shooting rimfire firearms. Aguila Super Extra, CCI Min Mag, and Remington Golden Bullet are my favorite rimfire rounds and most of my guns love them all. My son and I thank you for the nice compliment.
