Aguila Super Maximum

Featured Replies

I went through (200) rounds or so of this ammo in my new Taurus 94 5" Stainless revolver today. By far, it's the most powerful .22LR ammo I've ever shot.

A brick of this is about 40$ , double than usual but you cant beat the power 1700fps . Works perfectly in my Henry and Ruger MkIII

Yes, I have them too. They're the Super Colibri round. Obviously, they are louder in a pistol than a rifle, but they are very quite. The lead is propelled by the primer only from what I understand. I bought them because I thought I'd be able to use them in my city backyard, but they're still a bit too noisy for that.

Not out of my old Colt revolver. Sounds like a bb gun

I was shooting them indoors, so they probably sounded louder than what they would outside.

Good to hear.

 

I order 500 rds from Cabelas and should be receiving the shipment on Friday. I have a semi 22 pistol and does not like the cheap federal bulk packs.

 

Need more power to cycle.

It's a good round for cats.

You said that, not me. :)

Hey handsome...if you want to try some Colibri or Super Colibri I have a brick of both so you can try some.

This stuff shoots into the bullet trap on my deck discretely.

I have read that the accuracy for the high power stuff is not great. What was your experience?

I'd really like to give it a try.

Accuracy isn't the greatest. But it's close range fun.

It certainly isn't the most accurate, but was working fine for me at 25-yards. The issue is due to the higher velocity of the round. The faster it goes through the air, the more unstable it gets. That's why you'll see many use sub-sonic ammo for better accuracy. Personally, I like this round because it almost makes you forget your shooting a 22.

Hmm, i think i just found a cheaper alternative to Stingers for my comp'd 22 pistol. Thanks Chief!

Must be some kind of acoustical think. I shoot them out of a Dan Wesson revolver and all I can hear is the slap of the bullet hitting the trap. But wait I shoot standard Colibri not Super in the pistol.

Be careful of Super Colibri in a rifle, as they can get stuck in the barrel.

I've never had a problem with the Colibri or Super Colibri getting stuck in the barrel .

I have the 40 gr. 22 Interceptor , 60 gr. .22-SSS Sniper Subsonic and 40 gr. Super Extra Subsonic , but haven't tried any yet. Anybody?

Aguila is one of my favorite 22 manufacturers. They actually build a great product. I am having a hard time finding them lately

I tried some of the supermax stuff this past weekend and out of 1 box of 50, i had 1 seriously undercharged. Luckily it exited the barrel, but it was so light, it almost sounded like a colibri! I've not shot much of this Aguila ammo or aguila in general, but it seems the consistency isn't quite the same as CCI.

 

Speaking of colibri's and super colibri's, i shoot both out of my lever 22 and both exit the barrel just fine. I even have a 8x10" steel plate that i can hit at 100yds with both although the regular colibri's require some pretty silly holdover. The point is that they still have a decent amount of energy even after exiting the barrel so they are not going to get stuck in normal conditions.
