The Rimfire Report: A 30-Year-Old Box of Federal Lightning 22LR
by Luke C. on March 31, 2025 at 11:00 pm
Hello and welcome back to another edition of The Rimfire Report! This ongoing series is all about the world of rimfire and its many interesting guns, history, ammo, and more. In this continuing series where I test as many .22LR offerings as I can get my hands on, we’ve covered everything from CCI’s Standard Velocity to European budget picks like S&B Club. This week, I’m taking a look at a classic American staple—Federal Lightning 40-grain 22LR, marketed as an affordable, all-purpose round for plinking and small game. I dug up a roughly 30-year-old box of the stuff when doing some spring cleaning in the shop and thought I’d run it through our series of tests to see how it’s held up over all these years.
8 Reasons Why the FN P90 is Under-appreciated
by James Reeves on March 31, 2025 at 5:00 pm
The FN P90 is one of the most overlooked personal defense weapons in the world. Designed by FN Herstal in 1990, this futuristic bullpup fires 5.7x28mm, offering high capacity, low recoil, and impressive ballistic performance—especially when compared to 9mm. Whether you’re curious about its performance in real life or want to see how it stacks up against competitors like the MP5 or Ruger LC Charger, this video covers everything: reliability, suppressor performance, ammo availability, and why the P90 might be one of the most practical backpack guns ever. Also ... did I mention GoldenEye, Stargate, and Outer Heaven babe troopers from Metal Gear?
