Federal Champion High Velocity .22LR 40 Grain Lead Round Nose – 500 Rounds (Brick) 510

The Federal Champion 22LR 40gr lead round nose brick is 500 rounds of honest, no nonsense rimfire ammunition built for shooters who want to practice properly. Marksmanship is a perishable skill, and it is rebuilt with repetition rather than expensive gear. A brick like this is the cheapest training tool in shooting.

Every fundamental you use on a centerfire rifle transfers from rimfire practice. Sight alignment, trigger press, breathing and follow through do not care what cartridge you are firing. They only care how many times you have done them correctly.

Why the Federal Champion 22LR 40gr brick is a training staple

Five hundred rounds is enough ammunition to run a real training program rather than a casual afternoon. You can shoot dry fire drills, live fire strings, position work and dot drills without ever counting what is left in the box. That freedom is what makes progress possible.

The 40 grain lead round nose bullet is the classic rimfire profile, smooth feeding and stable in flight across a wide range of firearms. A Federal Champion 22LR 40gr load runs equally well in semi automatic rifles, pistols and bolt action platforms, so one brick covers every rimfire in the safe. High velocity loading keeps semi automatic actions cycling reliably.

Specifications and the practice they support

Caliber is .22 Long Rifle, bullet weight is 40 grains, bullet type is lead round nose, the loading is high velocity, and the brick holds 500 rounds. Precision manufacturing keeps the rounds consistent from one to the next. That consistency is the entire point of a training load.

Consistency is where the Federal Champion 22LR 40gr brick earns its keep on a training day. If every round leaves at a similar velocity and lands in a similar place, then any change in your group is information about your technique rather than noise from the ammunition. That feedback loop is how shooters improve.

Building a training plan around the Federal Champion 22LR 40gr brick

Structure beats volume. Split the brick into blocks of fifty and assign each block a purpose, such as slow fire groups, timed strings, positional work or transitions between targets. Recording your results turns 500 rounds into a measurable improvement rather than a pleasant afternoon.

Keep a notebook with the brick. Writing down group sizes, distances and conditions alongside a Federal Champion 22LR 40gr load lets you compare sessions honestly, and honest comparison is how weak points get found. Most shooters discover their problem is trigger press rather than sights.

Store the brick somewhere cool and dry, since heat and humidity are the only real threats to rimfire ammunition over the long term. Kept properly, it will shoot exactly the same in five years as it does today. A sealed ammo can is ideal.

Buy more than one brick when you find it in stock, and browse the rest of our ammunition catalog while you are ordering. Rimfire supply moves in cycles and the shelf is not always full.

Skill is built one repetition at a time, and a 500 round brick is 500 chances to build it. Shoot deliberately and the improvement follows. This ammunition ships straight to your door wherever state and local law allows.
