Does anyone know where I can find this online? Ive only found one store somewhere in Ontario that has a couple bricks. Where did it all go? It shoots so well out of my Savage mkii and Id like to get some more.
 
The Spec Ops .22LR from Canada Ammo appears to be the same thing. The cases have Aguila headstamps and it is loaded to the same velocity. The price is nice at $29.99/brick.
 
It's possible that Aguila no longer makes Aguila Super Extra Standard Velocity ammo. No variety with that name appears on the Aguila website. They do have other standard velocity flavours.

22 Rifle Match Competition



22 Target Competition



Target Shooting Products lists these on their website.
 
Rampart International has it (or at least had it) on sale if you are a Shield member.
\Perhaps they were blowing it out as a discontinued product.
 
22 SUPER EXTRA / LONG RIFLE STANDARD VELOCITY LEAD SOLID POINT NO. 1B222332

A TIN CAN’S WORST ENEMY.
Our standard velocity round is guaranteed to deliver optimal performance at an all-too-affordable price, making it the perfect plinking or target round.

This is still up on the Aguila website... calling it a "tin cans worst enemy" kind of tips you off to the intended purpose, so don't expect "match grade" ammo;

The Canada Ammo site says it is made in the USA for the Canadian market. Aguila is made in Mexico.

Perhaps it is loaded in the US using Aguila components. I bought two bricks of it and they were indeed marked as made in the USA. Other than that, it looks to be equivalent, as I mentioned above. It even smells like Eley priming.

Aguila has had a plant in Texas for a few years now
 
waiting for website update

article
The longevity of the brand is due to its premium performance, and Texas Armament & Technology (TxAT) started working with Tecnos in 2011 to set up a facility in Texas to produce premium ammunition for North America.

The grand opening of the stateside facility is due later this year. Company representatives say, “The plant had some construction delays, so it still isn’t up and running, but we are close to the final phase. Production will begin this year in late spring or early summer. By having a manufacturing facility in Texas, Aguila Ammunition is able to provide more supply for high-demand products such as our Minishell 7.5 and centerfire hollow point rounds.”

If this all sounds new, it’s because the branding campaign for the Aguila project only started in January of 2016. There are few avid shooters aware of the products and premium components.

In 2008, Aguila Ammunition produced a limited run of their 5mm ammo at Tecnos, their manufacturing facility in Cuernavaca, MX. Today, the U.S distributor of Aguila, TxAT, is still manufacturing ammo at Tecnos. However, a second production facility is being built near corporate headquarters in Conroe, TX to help increase needed capacity and produce ammunition domestically in the United States.

appears my dates were off a tad
 
That is good news for Aguila shooters. Is there any information about which Aguila products are to be made in Texas -- the entire line of products, rimfire, shotshells, or centerfire?

The information about TxAt that I referred to above was from Aguila's website, which may be outdated (it's product catalogue is dated 2016).
 
My local C.T has /had some I am thinking, I bought some and some HV just to try out , the standard works good in my Hi Standards, the box is different that the new stuff.
I think it on sale for $4.75 or so. been awhile. I think the reg. price was $7 which is a silly price.
