Shatner-esque pauses, dawn of time explanations, anecdotes, chronographs, meat targets, orange lung tissue, new and improved fleece bullet stops, and jacket pockets filled with ammo. What more could a man ask for?

Paul. Please never skip describing the meat target. I dunno why, your rote caveats are just so endearing.

Im here to bear with the range noise

Happy Father's Day. I lost my dad last year and I now have several 22s (and a 30-30 & 30-06) from him. Paul is giving good advice like a dad should to all of us.

“I actually do, plan these things out just a little bit”. And that’s why we love Paul Harrell: clear, concise, germane to the topic at hand, and no BS. The best on YT.

Going to miss this guy. Anyone else going through his back catalogue?

No surprises here. Concise explanations, informative content, a dab of dry humor. Typically high quality content. Paul is more consistent than many types of 22lr ammunition!

From over 3 decades shooting Stingers, and it being popular with most of my friends, I can say it has some reputation for frustrating people when grouping on paper. It's still plenty accurate enough for things like coon hunting, but it certainly throws more flyers than some others.

A video about the most popular caliber in the world shooting the most popular ammo sold is always good viewing.

Nice! Love to see the results of this as weve got those Aguilas available here now in Australia. Cheers for all you do, Paul and crew!

I want a t-shirt that spells out Paul's description of the meat target, for those who have never seen it before! Even considering getting it tattooed on my forearm. Would be a great bumper sticker as well. Thanks Mr Harrell. Keep the cool videos coming our way. Sincerely, Chris Lake

A video from Paul on a Saturday evening?! 😮 I’m not gonna miss this! And Paul, I don’t know if you’re a father, but Happy Father’s Day from the “family”

Ive shot Stingers for years and didnt even notice they were 32 grain until he said that. Makes it almost as light as an average 22 short projectile which is 29-31 grains

A couple of take away's for me... #1: I have been shooting CCI products, mainly mini-mags but also stingers, since the 70's. Reliable & consistent. I became familiar with Aguila during the pandemic. Effectively, in my area, it was the only ammo avail consistently during those couple years. I now have over 2000 rounds of each, the 40 grain, solid point, High Velocity & the 38 grain, hollow point, High Velocity. They are my GO-TO ammo for the 10-22. #2: Just how many couches has Paul skinned to produce all those meat targets??? Livin my best La Vida Loca here in south eastern Arizona

A late night treat! Paul deadpan humor and guns

Have hunted with .22's for many years and compared to subsonic, and standard ammo, the Stinger is devastating on small game. The explosive affect of the increased velocity never ceases to amaze. The crack of the bullet is substantially louder than standard .22 however, so not neighborhood friendly. Switched to a PCP air rifle recently. Awesome for pesting when sound is an issue. Air rifles can be pellet picky for accuracy, so you have to experiment to find best type for your PCP rifle.

Aguila ammo smells like superglue when fired. The 60 grain sub sonic sniper is great stuff in a revolver!

This is way better than lockpick lawyer. This man does his tests like a scientist and you can tell he is an expert in the field of firearms. Way better than other gun channels that give minimal explanations. This guy should be a professor.

Thanks for what you do Mr. Harrell. These presentations are of great use to me.

Now, I'm not saying I get all my gun advice from KZfaq, but if Paul Harrell says it's _not_ the ammunition for him, you sure won't find it in any gun I own.

I know exactly what I am getting every single time I watch a Paul Harrell production and I am impressed every single time.

I expect to hear “To test the effectiveness on the attended target we are going to a medium call the squirrel target. For those who haven’t seen it (because no one ever has) it is a chicken ribs, chicken breast, grapes for lung tissue, more chicken ribs in the back stuffed into a cheap, thin leather glove and backed with the new and improved hight tech fleece bullet stop.”

I like aguila 30 gr. It really likes wood chucks. Spicy little things.

The real prize is the Paul Harrell videos we watched along the way ❤

This will surely be interesting . I've had interesting results with the different types of 22lr Aguila ammo .

Thanks for making the 22lr Hyper Velocity Ammunition: Featuring Aguila Super Maximum and CCI Meateater video.

This is an excellent topic, .22 Hyper velocity.

Always a pleasure to see Paul's videos

Mr. Paul Harrel deserves a KZfaq Gun Tuber award. Thank you as always Paul.

No matter what you do or how well you do it, there will always be critics. Thanks Paul for another video.

Chrono segment was very interesting, lots of 100+ FPS variations. The hazards of rim fire cartridges.

Thanks Mr. Harrell for keeping us safe from orange lung tissue and ribs, along with poor ammunition choices.

A great presentation, Paul. Thanks!

Love your videos Paul Harrell. Thank you for sharing

Schrödingers groups, paul harrel is both an "Average Shooter" and an incredible rifleman at the same time until you see him shoot in the field (his natural habitat) where he will hit his target with 102% accuracy, with an included 2% margin of error.

I love aguila. I just use the super extra. But the centerfire pistol ammo is good too, and crimped if you like that

I always appreciate you work. Please keep it coming.

I've used a few different configurations of .22lr Aguila ammunition and have been pleased with its performance. However, I've only been using it out of pistols and revolvers shooting paper targets. But within that envelope, it has performed as well or better than the various CCI, Federal, Winchester, and SK I've also used, with the one exception being a couple trays of CCI Match Pistol 40gr LRN grouping better for me than all the rest. Your mileage may vary, but Aguila seems a bit like an underrated gem, given its typically lower price point.

Thanks for sharing your videos and keep them coming please.

Thanks for the great content, as always, very informative.

Your videos are always so informative and entertaining. I appreciate the time and effort you put into everything you do and you sound like the professional you say you are. By the way, I love that line, never stop saying it!

I love when Paul re-shoots after an unexpected result. Shows a commitment to quality.

Sir, always a pleasure to see how my opinion matches to your results, just superbly done, thank you.

Good presentation and very interesting. Thanks for putting it together for us.

Excellent review PH. Your content is amazing. Please do not stop the chronograph portion, I enjoy hearing the rounds echo and determining to velocity differences. Your review outline is perfect! Oh you need to rehire the deer..lol

As always, thanks, Paul. I place a high value on your opinions and your test results. I've had better luck with Stingers than with CCI Hypers out to 50 yards with a Henry H001. The range officer claims this is unusual, and your results confirm his observations. Now I have to go back with a different rifle and a different shooter for the Henry. It could very well be just me and the way I react to the "sharp" recoil of the Stingers.

I would never fast forward through the chronograph session. I enjoy your demonstration and also the beautiful vista behind you.

As always, thank you Paul for making my Saturday night.

Thanks for the informative video Looking forward to more

Great video Paul thank you. I have often wondered about these ammo choices. Thank you for clearing up misconceptions I had about the meat eaters... I'm definitely going to stick with the stingers. 👍👍

Great presentation.

The logic and thoroughness of each presentation has remained consistent throughout Paul's video career and I appreciate it.

Paul harrel pops up even mark Novak gets put on pause....😊

Thank you for a very informative video. I like carrying my .22 vs one of my larger firearms at times due to weight etc. Nice seeing the results on the meat test

YOU BE THE JUDGE

Paul, love your videos!

Love the Aguila in my Tippman. Thanks for the review

Thanks Paul, these multiple 22lr comparisons have been very helpful. (So, I'm stick'n with the cheap Federal "Champion" 40 grain blue box.) Happy Father's Day!!

I understand the purpose of the “meat eater” is; 1st kill small game without destroying too much meat, and 2nd provide a lead-free projectile for those who can’t legally hunt with lead.

I was definitely one of the ones that was complaining but as always, great video. I would definitely like to see a new video with the velocitor. Hopefully, they still exist somewhere. I have no understanding of why CCI produces them in such low numbers. Velocitor vs Minimag. I think everyone wants that video.

Informative and impartial.

Good presentation I have been using the Aguila because it is the only 22 ammo I can find in bulk around here, I had avoided it because it wasn't made in USA, but am very happy with it, it functions in two pistols that will only work with hyper ammo. I like that they get there using a heavier bullet.

Thank you Paul.

I had high hopes for the meateater, I didn't know it existed. That being said I won't be buying any to try either. Thanks for another great presentation Paul!

Another gem. Thanks, Paul.

Excellent comparison, thanks for sharing..

I like Aguila Ammo, use it all the time, works great in my guns :)

Another great video.

Having seen all your videos, that reactive target is the best one I’ve seen you use. Thank-you!

Such real life tests. Common sense explanations. And dry humor to boot! Another great video!

Well done !

We love ya Paul. You’ve been a great inspiration for gun owners out there, and we can’t thank you enough for spending time doing these videos for us. To make us happy. Sometimes even in the rain. You’re going to beat that cancer and come back stronger than ever! I don’t know if you’re religious, but you’re certainly in my thoughts and prayers!! 🙏

Stingers also have a slighly longer case, which is why they cant be used well in some guns and are often banned to be used in user instructions of guns

I think you do very well with the presentation of the chronograph. You understand how to present well to the camera.

Very interesting, thanks!

Nice video as always. You mentioned at the end that both the Aguila and Stingers had about the same impact on the Meat Target, but the Aguila ammo did seem to be quite a bit more consistent from an accuracy standpoint. I'm a CCI guy, but I think I need to give the Aguila Super Maximum a closer look. Thanks again for another nice video 👍

Another excellent video.. entertaining and informative as always... 👍👍

This is a great Father’s Day present

Thanks Paul

The Aguila Super Max has worked well in my CMMG, stainless .22LR AR conversion kit...Thx Paul.

Great job, much appreciated 👍🇺🇲

Over the last 13 years I've done a lot of 50 yard Benchrest shooting in five shot groups. I shot a lot of various brands, velocities and bullet designs to determine consistent accuracy. Lapua, RWS, Aquila, SK, Eley, Norma , Wolf, Federal and CCI. I stayed away from Remington and Winchester because they are so dirty. Considering the prices of the premium brand ammo they were very accurate. A comparatively consistent accurate and at a more affordable price was the plain old CCI Standard Velocity. I still have a lot of the Lapua, RWS, Aquila, SK, Eley, Norma and Wolf and CCI. The ammo I shoot today for hunting is the CCI Standard.

👍👍appreciate all your videos

I have literally NEVER fast-forwarded through the "boring" chronograph parts. I don't know if it appeals to my somewhat OCD nature or what. Either way, I friggin' love it. Lol

Thank you for the information.

Keep rockin' it out, Paul

Out of about a thousand rounds so far from the 5K case of Aguila super-max I picked up, there's only been one failure to fire - Other than that, the only "complaint" I have about it is that it smells funny when fired. It runs like the proverbial scalded dog through both my 10/22 and a CMMG Conversion bolt that I use in my ARs. The first time I tried using it with the conversion bolt was a bit problematic, with a handful of failure-to-chamber incidents, but once I figured out that (A) using the conversion mag as a forward grip or a monopod is all but guaranteed to cause trouble and (B) the conversion bolt REALLY prefers to be run "slightly moist", those problems went away. Based on the combination of my experience with it, and your results, looks like I'll keep getting Aguila when it's in stock.

.22 lr is a difficult round to manufacture consistently with such a small powder charge where a tenth of a grain is a significant percentage. Then throw in the priming compound which also provides quite a bit of the power and it's remarkable that we get ammo as good as it is. I once pulled a box of Remington Golden Bullets apart to inspect the powder and priming and found quite the variables...especially in the priming which also caused the occasional dud when the firing pin hit a light or non-existent area. For the billions of rounds made every year...I'm impressed even with the crappiest of 22lr's.

Fabulous video as always Paul. I want to point out, if someone hasn't already, that the term "meateater" is a marketing term used by CCI on a series of ammo, not just the hypervelocity that Paul mentions here. You can look up the details for yourself. For example, I have a box of regular old Mini Mag 36 grain hp with "MEATEATER" and the meateater logo prominently printed on the box.

I love these videos.

Thank you, Paul & crew. I never noticed a particularly bad grouping when shooting Stingers, but most of my groupings aren't especially good 😮 😂.

Long hard day at work…… get home very much looking forward to dinner and a shower….. glance at KZfaq…….. new Paul Harrell video…… dinner and shower can wait. Thanks Paul.

Thank you SIR for this interesting and informative video especially doing rifle and pistol performance with the different types of HYPER VELOCITY. 😉😊😊😊

Just wanted to say great video and also I haven’t been seeing your other stuff in my feed

I'm surprised that from the rifle there was that much penetration from the expanding rounds. In any case, this (and the other .22LR videos from Paul) show that while not necessarily "ideal," a good .22 rifle with good ammo is not to be underestimated for self-defense/home-defense. Great video as always.

Paul Harrell’s are the only videos I hit the like button on every time

thank you

Im so happy that another company took the 22lr and lengthened it's case for more powder. I often wish that 22 extra long was the rimfire round that survived. It would be absolutely amazing with modern loadings

92s is a thing of beauty. Bottom mag release and has had one mag ran through it. Original box hyper polished wood grips and perfect deep blue

The stinger has always been my prefered choice in 22 rimfire. It is nice to know that there is a choice that duplicates the performance on the market.
