Aguila bullet length

[alphapygmy]

Does anyone have an Aguila 40gr lead round nose bullet loose they could measure the length of? Looks like most 40gr rimfire bullets are .460"-.480" but I'm looking for a more precise measurement. I've tried contacting Aguila but they did not respond back. Thanks

I'm just not really "getting" it. I have a lot of agulia that I could pull to get your reqriement but what I don't understand is why you wouldn't do it yourself. Gary

I don't think your request is unreasonable. I pull .22 rimfire bullets all the time to use for "slugging" .22 rimfire bores. You did mention you were looking for a 'round nose' bullet, so here's the measurement of the full round nose 40 grain Aguila bullet, looks as though it is pretty close to the high end:

Awesome SGW Gunsmith. I'm updating a bullet database at work. We didn't have any of these rounds here or I would have pulled a few. Thank You
