Interesting about the Aguila ammo, though obviously it might shoot better in another rifle. I suspect one of the reasons the 5mm never caught on was the original load's advertised muzzle velocity wasn't all that different from the 40-grain .22 Magnum's. Many shooters back then were fixated on muzzle velocity, not downrange ballistics.
