If you're building or reloading ammunition for the 22 ARC in your AR-15, Alpha Munitions 22 ARC small rifle primer brass gives you a quality foundation that's designed to handle the demands of this versatile cartridge. The 22 ARC has earned its place among AR platform shooters for its ability to drive heavier .22 caliber bullets—typically in the 62–88 grain range—with flat trajectory and solid energy retention out to medium and long distances. Whether you're pursuing varmints, dialing in precision shots at distance, or hunting predators, starting with consistent, durable brass makes the difference between mediocre results and reliable loads.
Alpha Munitions engineered this brass with their OCD (optimized case head) technology, which is built to extend primer pocket life and overall case longevity even when you're pushing higher velocities and pressures. That translates to more reloading cycles per case and tighter shot groups over time—exactly what serious AR shooters and precision loaders demand. The 22 ARC uses a 6.5 Grendel parent case necked down to .22 caliber, and this brass arrives in standard small rifle primer configuration, ready to be loaded with your chosen powder, primer, and bullet combination.
Each box contains 100 pieces of unprimed brass, shipped in Alpha Munitions' protective custom plastic cases with perforated bi-layer foam that keeps cases safe and organized during transit and storage. If you're a hand-loader committed to building ammo that matches your rifle's potential, Alpha Munitions brass is a straight choice—no marketing fluff, just solid materials and thoughtful engineering behind every round you assemble.

The 22 ARC is a centerfire rifle cartridge optimized for the AR-15 platform, built on a 6.5 Grendel parent case and necked down to .22 caliber. It's designed to shoot heavier .22 bullets (62–88 grains) with a flatter trajectory, good retained energy, and inherent accuracy at medium to long ranges. It's popular for varmint hunting, precision long-range shooting, and predator hunting—making it a solid choice if you want AR-15 performance beyond standard 5.56.
Yes, the 22 ARC is an AR-15 platform cartridge. This brass is configured for small rifle primers and is designed to feed and chamber in AR-15s chambered in 22 ARC. If you're unsure your rifle is chambered in 22 ARC, verify with your rifle's marking or manufacturer before purchasing.
OCD stands for optimized case head technology. It's designed to lengthen primer pocket life and overall case life, even under higher-than-normal pressures and velocities. This means you can reload the brass more times before primer pockets wear out or cases fail, improving value and consistency across your hand-loaded ammunition.
The OCD case head technology is engineered to extend case life and primer pocket longevity, but the total number of reloads depends on your specific loads, pressures, and handling. Alpha Munitions' design supports durability under higher pressures, but we'd recommend following industry best practices for case inspection and retiring cases when primer pockets become loose or damaged.
