Here are the main details buyers should review before choosing from this category:
Shop rimfire ammunition online, or visit our store in El Dorado Springs, Missouri. Bear Arms serves customers from nearby cities including Nevada, Bolivar, Clinton, Butler, and Lamar.
Rimfire ammunition orders should be reviewed carefully before checkout. Shipping restrictions, age-related requirements, and product availability can vary based on destination and item type.
Safe storage, transportation, and lawful use remain the responsibility of the buyer. Contact the shop directly for clarification on current store policies, accepted identification, and any questions tied to your order.
Bear Arms stocks rimfire options for training, hunting, competition, and casual range use. Common choices include .22 LR, .22 Short, .22 WMR, and .17 HM2, along with specialty offerings when available.
Rimfire cartridges place the priming compound in the rim of the case rather than using a separate center primer. That design keeps cost and recoil low, which suits practice and small-game shooting.
Yes. Light recoil and lower noise help new shooters focus on safe handling and clean trigger control. Rimfire also supports high repetition without fatigue, which builds good habits faster.
.22 LR fits many small-game needs at typical woods distances, and it works in a wide range of firearms. .22 WMR and .17 HM2 add speed and flatter trajectory for varmints or longer shots where your firearm is chambered for them.
No. .22 WMR firearms require ammunition made for that chambering, and .22 LR is not interchangeable. Use only the exact caliber listed on the barrel and in your manual.
Yes. Some semi-auto actions cycle more reliably with higher-velocity ammunition, especially in newer guns with stiffer springs. A short function test with your magazines confirms what runs best.
Keep rimfire ammo cool and dry in sealed containers to protect the priming compound from moisture. Rotate older boxes through practice and inspect cartridges for dents or damaged bullets before loading.
Bear Arms carries trusted rimfire brands such as Aguila, CCI, Federal, Hornady, and Winchester. Staff can help you narrow choices based on your firearm, your distance, and the accuracy you want.
