When it comes to rimfire recommendations, CCI 22LR ammo is at the top of most lists. It\u2019s affordable, reliable, and has a variety of options to suit your needs. That said, CCI\u2019s rimfire ammo is undeniably some of the highest-quality stuff that could make it into your rifle or handgun\u2019s chamber. If you\u2019ve got a \u201cpicky\u201d firearm, or need ammo that runs clean, look no further!<\/span><\/p>\n

CCI History<\/b><\/h2>\n

The CCI company was founded in 1950 by former Boeing employee Dick Speer (who is not to be confused with his brother Vernon, the founder of Speer). CCI would revolutionize the ammo industry upon introducing the first heat-treated aircraft-grade aluminum case. Speer also earned a fair deal of clout by developing more reliable and cleaner igniting primers. They still showcase their primers in every line of 22 LR ammo the Idahoan company offers.<\/span><\/p>\n

22 Suppressor\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

Want to dispatch small game \u2026 <\/span>discreetly?<\/span><\/i> CCI\u2019s Suppressor line of ammunition isn\u2019t just loaded with hollow point bullets that ensure positive (and deadly) terminal expansion. Thanks to the bullet\u2019s relatively heavy 45-grain weight, its muzzle velocity out of a long gun\u2019s barrel clocks in at approximately 970 fps \u2013 significantly lower than the speed of sound, which prevents the supersonic \u201ccracking\u201d report that makes a suppressor less effective.<\/span><\/p>\n

They see the word \u201cMag\u201d and imagine it\u2019s 22 Magnum or some strange \u201c22 LR Magnum\u201d variant. Not so! Mini-Mag is just CCI\u2019s insanely popular solution to all kinds of small game hunting. It\u2019s available in a 36gr copper-plated hollow point, or fragmenting <\/span>segmented <\/span><\/i>hollow point projectiles.

CCI Quiet-22 is designed to cycle through suppressed semi-automatic rifles and handguns.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cQuiet\u201d is not an exaggeration. This round\u2019s abnormally low 710 fps muzzle velocity translates to the quietest report you\u2019ll ever hear from your 22 LR firearm. As much as 75 percent less perceived noise than a standard velocity alternative. Take care because this ammo\u2019s chamber pressure is almost certainly insufficient to cycle a semi-automatic, and its low-velocity bullet is unlikely to emerge from a 24\u201d or longer barrel. It is also available loaded with excessively injurious segmented hollow point bullets or an 835 fps muzzle velocity promoting surefire operation in semi-autos.<\/span><\/p>\n
