Remington 22 Golden Bullet High Velocity .22 LR 36 Grain Brass-Plated Hollow Point Bulk Case (MPN: 21231)
High-volume marksmen, firearms instructors, small-game hunters, and shooting clubs running .22 LR rifles, carbines, or handguns demand bulk rimfire ammunition that balances flat trajectories, smooth semi-automatic cycling, and clean-running performance across thousands of rounds. Remington engineered their iconic 22 Golden Bullet "Bucket O' Bullets" 36-grain Brass-Plated Hollow Point (BPHP) master case (MPN: 21231) specifically to keep high-volume shooters continuously supplied. Delivering a massive total payload of 5,600 rounds divided into four individual 1,400-round re-sealable buckets, this master pack provides unmatched range economy, easy transport, and versatile field performance.
At the center of Remington’s 22 Golden Bullet formulation is a 36-grain lead bullet encapsulated in a smooth brass plating. This specialized brass-plated jacket reduces direct lead contact with barrel rifling, significantly cutting bore fouling and lead buildup during extended sessions at the range. Designed with a wide hollow-point nose profile, the bullet initiates rapid, uniform expansion upon impact with small game and pests while maintaining high structural velocity for flat flight paths out of both rifles and handguns.
Out on the range or in the field, expect crisp primary ignition, positive shell extraction, and energetic slide blowback. Propelling its 36-grain brass-plated projectile at a high muzzle velocity of 1,280 FPS, this loading provides the exact gas pressure curve needed to cycle popular semi-automatic platforms like Ruger 10/22 carbines, Smith & Wesson M&P15-22s, and subcompact rimfire handguns. Shipped as a complete master case containing four heavy-duty plastic buckets with sturdy carry handles, this 5,600-round bulk crate is the ultimate long-term inventory solution for high-volume target training, backyard plinking, and farm pest control.
Armorer Bench Notes & Technical Maintenance Guidance
Shipping Restrictions: Ammunition sales are strictly regulated. Check all state and local laws prior to ordering. Cannot ship to PO Boxes, APO/FPO addresses, or internationally. Must ship via ORM-D / Hazardous Ground transport.
Armorer Tip: High-velocity 36gr brass-plated rimfire ammunition generates energetic blowback force, making it ideal for breaking in new semi-automatic .22 LR rifles and pistols. To maintain 100% cycling reliability across a 5,600-round master case, clean firing pin channels and magazine feed lips periodically with solvent, applying a light coat of CLP to slide rails to prevent carbon fouling buildup.
