Aguila ammo

im trying to find 1000 rounds of 223 ammo but its drying up fast...

im wondering have any of you have experiance with Aguila ammo...

i found 1000 for under 300 bucks, im wondering how it shoots though, i dont want to buy it then have 1000 rounds of crap...

the agaila i would be buying is made in mexico...

opinions?

Don't know about their .223 loadings but I have used their . 32ACP very successfuly for some time now. Its similar to S&B over the chronograph and it is not dirty in .32 ACP.

I'm very favorably impressed with their .22 rimfire ammo. The standard velocity stuff of theirs shoots as good as Eley match from my Rem. 513. Though I've not used any other caliber ammo from them, I would be surprised if their .223 wasn't as good or better as that from any other manufacturer.

My only experience with Aguila has been with .22 LR Sniper Subsonics. It's very good.

not one problem with my 44.

I'm very favorably impressed with their .22 rimfire ammo.
I've found their standard velocity to be reasonably accurate, but unreliable in my High Standard Citation. The case diameter tends to run large, causing stuck cases in the tight target chamber. It works fine in my S&W Model 17. I imagine it would be great cheap match ammo in a Ruger MkII.

Just bought some Aguila .223 for my DPMS M4, but I won't be shooting until Aug 10.

I use their .32 and .380 with no problems. If these rounds are an indication of their quality control I would buy the .223 with no hesitation.

I will second, Aguila is pretty high quality, good strong brass for reloads too!

My experience with their rimfire rounds, especially the Colibri (CB Long) and .45 ACP, has been positive. I've been very satisfied with those. I know of no other place to get 60 grain .22 LR ammunition. They have enough different rounds to make almost any semi-auto .22 I have work.

I've had some disturbing problems with their short 12 guage shotgun shells. I've had many problems with them sticking in chambers and about 4% of the shots have had the case heads ripped off. I no longer even consider buying Aguila shotgun shells.

I ought to add that those shotgun shells were fired in a mix of pump, double and single shot guns, including Mossberg, Winchester, Remington, Savage, Stevens and the odd over/under and s/s. I nver found a shotgun which would handle them well.

I like it in .22LR. It ran reliably in my XD45 also. Not as accurate in my .45 but that probably had more to do with me than it did the ammo.

I've only shot 22LR Aguila but it has been some of the better stuff I've shot.

I went through a couple of thousand rounds of their 30 carbine. It was the only time I ever got a squib load but no damage to me or the weapon. That doesn't mean I won't use it again (I have). I figured that had to happen sometime after the hundreds of thousands of rounds of factory ammo I've fired. The 30 carbine performs about the same as US GI ammo.

I regularily buy their .22LR match ammo and it shoots great!

I'm also impressed with their .22LR. Never used any of their other ammo but I wouldn't hesitate to do so.

I get 1 inch or less groups from my Ruger MKIII at 25yds from the bench. In bullseye matches the match ammo that is in the gold and black box is inexpensive and shoots really well with NO FTF's as of yet with that ammo, however some of the other stuff does FTF.

I've used Aguila in both .22lr and .45acp and had no trouble with it. Both my XD45C and P220 thought it was pretty good stuff as did my Neos.

I'm sold on their standard velocity .22LR. Out of my CZ-452 it is very, very accurate out to 50 yards which is about as far as I bother to shoot a 22.

remember, Aguila ammo, is eley, made with their specs, and their parts, and their machinery, assembled in mexico, but to their standards, not Mexican.
So go ahead and buy.
