.22 LR High Velocity / Hunting ammunition is typically loaded with 36–40 grain bullets traveling around 1,200–1,300 fps, placing them above the speed of sound for flatter trajectory and improved terminal performance on small game. Common projectile types include copper-plated hollow points and round nose designs intended for reliable feeding and effective energy transfer. These loads are widely used for small game hunting, pest control, and field use where additional velocity over standard .22 LR is beneficial. Pricing usually runs slightly above basic practice ammo due to plated bullets and hunting-oriented designs. The products listed above span major rimfire manufacturers, so daily price movement reflects the broader hunting rimfire retail market.
