      Buying .222 Remington Ammunition in Australia

      Magnum Sports lists 23 .222 Remington loads, and 18 are available today. Hornady and Norma lead the range, with Sako, Sellier & Bellot, Remington, Winchester, Highland, Fiocchi and Federal also listed. The .222 Remington is a classic small centrefire that has long been a favourite with Australian farmers and fox shooters for its accuracy, low recoil and modest report, and it is used mostly on foxes, rabbits and other vermin.

      A NSW dealer may only sell .222 Remington to a person who holds a licence or permit for a firearm in that calibre, so we sight your licence at the counter. It is collection only from our Roseville Chase store and cannot be posted or couriered. Order online and we will set it aside.

      Boxes start at $30 for Highland 50gr soft point, the typical box is about $62, and bulk options include the Sellier & Bellot 50gr SP bulk pack at $141 and the Norma Vermin Xtreme ammo can at $1,967.

      For foxes and rabbits, the 50gr polymer-tip loads such as Hornady V-MAX and Remington Premier AccuTip are the usual picks, while Norma Vermin Xtreme HP and Tipstrike Varmint suit the same work. Hornady 35gr NTX is a lead-free varmint option. For cheaper practice, Highland and Sellier & Bellot soft points keep costs down, and the Norma ammo can makes sense for a heavy spotlighting season. Hornady SP Match and Norma Jaktmatch are better suited to paper.
