A company representative said about 98.5% of the millions of rounds of ammo stolen earlier this week were .22 caliber, which is seldom used by Mexican drug cartels.
The .22 rounds are used mainly in rifles for target practice or extremely small game. Mexican cartels prefer larger, high-velocity ammunition for AK-47 and AR-15 rifles or 9 mm weapons.

I didn’t do it. Promise.
DOJ? DHS? FBI? Cartel hired by a US. Agency?
I believe biden’s govt did this.
Its not mexicans. They left the drivers alive.
Drivers unhurt would make them the #1 suspects.
Anyone seen a good deal on .22s? 😱😉🙌
Can always pick em up at the range you go to usually.
Not sure how they price them, but generally i can find them.
The other 2% of 7 million is 140,000 rounds which could be 2.23, 5.56 or 7.62 among other calibers Aguila makes.
That was a “wink, wink” comment. 😂
from what i have read, .22 is the preferred SHTF survival caliber.
you can use it for self defense when the occasion arises, but more often for small game while not attracting the unwanted attention of local zombies.
(btw where can one easily get .380? for use as barter. asking for a friend who prefers to stay off the grid.)
What's ammo doin' comin' from Mexico, anyway ?
“These will be of no use to them, given that they don’t use these weapons,” said security analyst Juan Ibarrola, who also acts as spokesman for the Tecnos Industries company”
Yes, easily sellable merchandise has no use whatsoever to a criminal cartel.
These will be of no use to them, given that they don’t use these weapons,” said security analyst Juan Ibarrola,
Time to fire his ass.
Key word: fungible.
Or he’s going to get a kick back.
5.56mm
It was Aguila Ammo. It's made in Mexico.
Aquila. 22 is one of the most dependable brands for small semi-auto .22 pocket piece pistols. It cycles well without jamming . It works way better in small pistols that the .22 hot rounds that .22 rifles take. So, if it starts turning up , stock up .
OK ... I never knew we bought Mexican ammo.
From Mexico and all over the World.
Aguila makes very good reliable ammo.
.380 ammo = unicorns
It’s also the most used round for assassinations.
Meanwhile 7,000 “detained” illegals last week....in Texas.
