11/6/2022 0 Comments Aguila sniper subsonic![]() ![]() The full range of Aguila ammunition can be viewed on Westlander’s website where they also list UK stockists. It is not cheap, but it is very effective and well worth the extra cost. Accuracy is very good and this ammo is definitely worth a try. That said, the improved performance over standard subsonic ammo should increase your effectiveness when it comes to pest control, once you get used to it. You must, of course, not attempt to test the improved terminal effectiveness at excessive distances, or on larger targets, unless you are 100% sure of a clean kill. The heavier bullet has been accommodated in the shortened case without compromising performance and the higher muzzle energy increases its effectiveness on vermin considerably. ConclusionĪguilas 60-grain Sniper Subsonic ammo is an ideal round for hunting small vermin and pests. ![]() ![]() On vermin the effect was noticeable, with the heavy bullet moving them a significant distance from the point at which they were hit. Absolutely fantastic ammo, it works in all my 22lr firearms flawlessly, including high performance rifles and handguns, great accuracy and no malfunctions. On a moderated rifle the 60-grain bullets are dispatched with very little noise and disturbance to the wildlife was minimal. Retained energy at 100-yards matches standard, and even some high velocity, 40-grain ammo but of course being subsonic it can be fired through a moderator making it ideal for vermin. What you do get is a significantly increased ‘knock down’ effect, with all that extra weight and energy working where it counts, at the target. Accuracy is very good and more than acceptable for shooting vermin at suitable distances. With the 60-grain bullet you can feel a difference in the recoil but nothing significant. which is significantly higher than their ‘standard’ subsonic ammo and at 100-yards the bullet is carrying 96ft/lbs, the same figure as their regular subs have at the muzzle! Performance.Īguila recommend this ammo for longer barrels, with a faster twist, but it actually performed very well in a variety of guns including bolt-actions and semi-autos. This velocity, combined with the heavier bullet, produces muzzle energy (ME) of 120ft/ lb. Despite the shortened case, muzzle velocity is 950fps which is ideal for subsonic ammo in this calibre. ![]()
