factory new QUALITY CARTRIDGE unprimed 22 SAVAGE HIGH POWER (5.6x52R) brass, 20 PCS

Designed by Charles Newton and released in 1912 for the Model 99 rifle, the .22 Hi Power fired a 70 grain .228 caliber bullet at a then fast, 2790fps. The .22 Hi Power was given the same mystical kudos as Remington’s .222 that came 38 years later. Not only was it used on North American game but also Asiatic and African game. In fact, Karamojo Bell wrote of using it for shooting Buffalo, his point of aim being just behind the ear.
