CCI Ammo
CCI: The Leader in Rimfire Ammunition
I don't know a shooter who doesn't recognize CCI ammunition. Whether it's 9mm Blazer Brass or 22 Mini Mag, CCI is ubiquitous among modern American shooters. And if you are a reloader, you've certainly come across CCI primers. The ammunition manufacturer is everywhere. People have come to rely on CCI for quality, affordable ammunition. I can't remember the last range trip where CCI wasn't part of it. But where did the company start, and what is its legacy today? Let's try to answer that.
CCI Ammunition History
CCI was founded in 1951 by Richard "Dick" Speer. If you are familiar with ammunition and reloading, the Speer name is familiar. Dick's older brother, Vernon, founded Speer (an ammunition and bullet manufacturer) in 1943, which, in a way, makes them the first family of ammunition. If you ever wondered what CCI means, it's Cascade Cartridge Inc., the company's original name.
Vernon moved to Lewiston, Idaho, in 1944 to found Speer Bullet Works. A few years later, in 1947, Dick joined him. They never left; both companies are still there today.
Dick originally planned to produce brass cases for reloaders, but post-war brass shortages led him to manufacture primers (and the hiring of Lithuanian chemist Dr. Victor Jasaitis certainly helped). This led to an Army contract for primers in the 1950s. And, well, the rest is history. Over time, CCI expanded into rimfire and centerfire ammo, including some of the most popular ammunition SKUs used by today's shooters.
CCI's History of Ammunition Innovation
CCI's growth continued as the company expanded beyond primer manufacturing and introduced new products to serve a broader range of shooters. In 1957, it entered the shotshell market, and in 1959 it introduced industrial power loads for use in powder-actuated tools (also known as nail guns).
In 1962, the CCI made its most famous introduction: .22 LR Mini-Mag ammunition, a high-velocity rimfire load that helped establish CCI as a major name in the category. A few years later, in 1967, Dick sold the company to Omark Industries. Omark then provided additional resources for continued growth and development of CCI.
In 1975, the company further cemented its reputation for rimfire innovation with the introduction of Stinger, a hypervelocity .22 LR cartridge featuring a shortened case and a lightweight bullet.
Then, in 1980, CCI introduced Blazer centerfire ammunition, expanding its reach into the handgun market with an economical option for recreational shooting and training. And they don't slow down.
CCI Rimfire Ammunition
Mini-Mag: CCI Mini-Mag 22 LR delivers peak velocities and features an accurate copper-plated hollow-point bullet. Clean-burning propellants ensure reliable performance. An original CCI offering, it remains the most popular. Known for reliable feeding and clean-burning powder that won't foul barrels.
Stinger: The hyper-velocity leader in 22LR. These scream out of the muzzle at 1,640 fps and are loaded to industry-standard pressures. They provide consistent, reliable performance thanks to CCI priming and brass.
Velocitor: They're 200 fps faster than 22 Long Rifle high-velocity loads at the same bullet weight and offer excellent weight retention, downrange energy, and penetration.
Quiet-22: Ideal for bolt-action and single-shot 22 LR rifles, it generates 75 percent less perceived noise than standard-velocity 22 LR rounds. It is perfect for areas where noise may be a problem and ideal for introducing newcomers to the shooting sports.
Standard Velocity: The Gold Standard of rimfire ammunition. It delivers accuracy and reliability thanks to a consistent lead round-nose bullet and reliable CCI priming and brass.
Green Tag: Suitable for both rifles and pistols, Green Tag is for when the competition is on the line. Settle for nothing less than the ultimate rimfire accuracy.
Clean-22: Uses an exclusive polymer bullet coating to greatly reduce copper and lead fouling in the barrel — without leaving residue. It also reduces lead buildup in suppressors by 60 to 80 percent.
Uppercut: EDC a 22? Unlike the simple lead round nose or copper-plated hollow points typical of most rimfire ammunition, Uppercut's jacketed hollow point bullet features skived nose construction that initiates full, reliable expansion while retaining the weight needed to achieve critical penetration depths.
Rimfire Shotshell: Use your favorite rimfire rifle or pistol like a shotgun to exterminate close-range pests.
CCI Primers and Reloading Components
CCI's roots in the ammunition industry are closely tied to the handloading community, and primers remain a key part of its product lineup. The company offers a broad selection of centerfire primers, including small and large pistol, small and large rifle, magnum, and Benchrest varieties. These primers serve handloaders seeking consistent ignition and dependable performance across different cartridge types.
Some of the most popular include No. 400 Small Rifle Primer, No. 41 Small Rifle for 5.56 Military Primers, No. 200 Large Rifle, and the BR-4 and BR-2 series, among many others.
CCI Shotshell and Specialty Ammunition
CCI also produces a selection of specialty shotshell ammunition for uses beyond traditional shotgun hunting and clay sports. Its offerings include .22 LR shotshell cartridges and handgun shotshell loads in popular revolver calibers. These cartridges use small shot payloads for close-range pest control, particularly for snakes and other small pests. The specialized loads give shooters an alternative to conventional bullets when a different projectile is better suited to the task. This niche product category reflects CCI's willingness to develop ammunition for specific shooting needs rather than limiting its lineup to conventional rifle and handgun cartridges.
Blazer Ammunition
While CCI and rimfire ammo go hand in hand, the company is equally known for the Blazer line of affordable centerfire pistol cartridges. Blazer was introduced in 1980 and used a special aluminum-alloy case, offering factory-loaded practice ammo at a lower price point.
Blazer Aluminum: Economical centerfire handgun ammunition with lightweight aluminum cases, designed primarily for recreational shooting and range practice.
Blazer Brass: Centerfire handgun ammunition with reloadable brass cases and full-metal-jacket bullets, available in popular calibers such as 9mm Luger, .380 ACP, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP.
Blazer Rimfire: Affordable rimfire ammunition designed for recreational shooting, plinking, and training with .22-caliber firearms.
CCI Manufacturing and American Heritage
Today, CCI maintains its primary manufacturing operations in Lewiston, Idaho, where it has produced ammunition and components for more than 70 years. Throughout its history, CCI has operated under several corporate owners, including Omark Industries, Blount, ATK, and Vista Outdoor.
Following Vista Outdoor's 2024 separation of its sporting products business, CCI became part of The Kinetic Group (which also owns Speer, Federal, Remington Ammunition, and Hevi-Shot), which Czech-based CSG later acquired. Despite these corporate changes, CCI continues to provide for the American shooter with American-made ammunition and reloading components.
Why Choose CCI Ammunition?
I've fired 10s of thousands of CCI-branded rounds in my shooting career. Whether with a budget .22 rifle or a custom 2011-style pistol that cost more than my first car, I've rarely encountered any issues. And to this day, when I'm out hunting for deals on 9mm or .22 LR, I look for CCI. They've built a built-in trust with millions of shooters by offering quality ammo at affordable prices.

CCI 17 HMR 17 Grain VNT – 50 Rounds

But if you do know your ammo, you will recognize that combination of initials and number 17s as one of the finest solutions for varmint hunting.
This 17 HMR round features the middleweight bullet for its caliber, yet its powerful propellant charge gives its 17 grain bullet a 100 fps faster muzzle velocity than average. That added speed in conjunction with the VNT’s ballistically efficient polymer tip and rotationally stable copper jacket grants it a lofty .125 ballistic coefficient – and accordingly flat trajectory.
The VNT is deadly to small game. The moment it makes contact its polymer tip drives into its nose cavity, forcing the wafer-thin jacket to burst apart into smithereens. Such terminal performance absolutely vanquishes varmints, flattens foxes, and discombobulates bobcats.
CCI pairs a sensitive primer with a precision drawn and tapered brass case to assist with seamless functionality. CCI does advise checking with a semi-automatic firearm’s manufacturer before running their high velocity 17 HMR ammo through it. -

Thanks to the full metal jacket bullets, these cartridges are also effective in the barrel, as they deliver less fouling, which means you can keep shooting without the enhanced concern for reduced accuracy. When you want a high-quality small game round, these .17 HMR bullets from CCI are an excellent choice.

The Idahoan company has over seven decades’ experience making high-quality ammunition and ammo components, and their original Mini-Mag label is still their most popular.
Don’t let “Mini-Mag” trick you into thinking this is 22 WMR or some kind of strange 22 LR +P ammo. It’s loaded to produce a safe chamber pressure for any 22 LR firearm, regardless of its design or year of manufacture. Semi-automatic firearms especially like this ammo – not just because its copper-plated hollow point bullets minimize fouling and promote reliable feeding, but also because its 36 grain projectiles and 1,260 fps muzzle velocity mean that it should cycle any semi-auto just fine.
We love this ammo for regular plinking and serious target practice, but it’s a great choice for varmint hunting as well. Once the CPHP bullet’s nose cavity fills up with pressurized soft tissue, it will undergo the quick terminal expansion that inflicts greater damage to a small quarry. Order a box of 300 rounds – you won’t regret it!Customer Reviews

And you can eat them! But only so long as you’ve got the ammo you need to knock smaller critters for a real loop. CCI provides just that in the form of these premium Maxi-Mag cartridges, loaded with accurate 40 grain JHP bullets!
This round’s bullet assists in reliable feeding, flies out of the muzzle at 1,875 fps, and begins expanding the instant it finds itself in something that is made out of meat. It’s great for putting down pests that you have no intention of subsequently grilling with fresh lemon wedges, and it’s also priced right for casual range time.
CCI got their start making primers, and their rimfire design is extremely reliable. This round’s brass shell casing is thin enough for reliable ignition without posing a risk of splitting in the chamber, and its propellant burns cleaner than a pastor’s wife’s Sunday dress. -

If you manage to take a tom turkey with it, then you deserve a Nobel prize for hunting (if in fact the Nobel Committee awards a prize in that category). No, what the .05” diameter pellets excel at, and are only good for, is taking out nearby varmints like rats and house mice. But who wants to carry around a shotgun just in case they cross paths with a rodent?
With this 22 LR shell by CCI, you’ll be ready for a spontaneous rat encounter so long as you’re carrying a small pistol. This round’s 31 grain load of #12 shot tears out of the muzzle at a subsonic speed of 1,000 fps, so it has got the range, spread, and power you need to prematurely end any pest’s cheese pilfering days.
Some 22 LR shells have crimped ends to hold in their shot, but we’ve found that they can present problems extracting on occasion. We personally prefer this round’s plastic tip, which doesn’t require the rim of the brass casing to change upon ignition. CCI’s responsive primer and consistent propellant charge promote reliable performance, but take caution that this round isn't intended to cycle a semi-automatic. -
CCI Velocitor 22 LR 40 Grain CPHP – 500 Rounds
$124.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer CCI Condition New Bullet Weight 40 Grain Bullet Type Copper-Plated Hollow-Point (CPHP) Use Type varmint hunting Casing Type Brass Quantity 500 Ammo Caliber 22 Long Rifle (LR) Manufacturer SKU 47 Primer Type Rimfire Magnetic No UPC Barcode 76683500472 Cost Per Round 25¢ per round When you’ve got a brick of CCI Velocitor, the world is your shooting gallery. Punch squirrels out of trees. Teach porcupines that needles aren’t welcome on your property. Give crows a real reason to wear black! It’s all in a day’s work for this ultra-velocity 22 LR ammunition from Idaho.
That’s right. This is bona fide ultra-velocity ammunition, which pushes its 40 grain bullet to a muzzle velocity of 1,435 fps – without exceeding SAAMI pressure specs. Such a fast-moving bullet really hauls downrange, exhibiting the flat trajectory that simplifies long-range aiming in the process. The bullet’s superior momentum also enables it to hit hard: over 150 ft lbs striking energy at 25 yards. Ka-BLAM!
The copper-plated hollow point bullet doesn’t just sink deeply into its unfortunate target. It is also built to undergo terminal expansion, which is why it reliably inflicts a wound column that is significantly wider than 0.22” in diameter. The CPHP is securely nestled in the mouth of a primo brass case, with one of CCI’s own outstanding rimfire primers just behind it. A swell choice for any gun! -

Its sensitive non-corrosive primer is intensely dependable, and its polished brass casing holds a consistent propellant charge and feeds and ejects like a dream. Whether you’re planning on perforating some bullseyes or putting the fear of man into some unwelcome varmints, you’ll find this 22 WMR round perfectly up to the task.
This round’s 40 grain projectile wears a concentric copper jacket, a feature which not only enhances its accuracy but further ensures it will be able to predictably penetrate rodents’ hides and crows’ coarse feathers. As it penetrates, the bullet’s hollow point will yield significant expansion, giving it the terminal performance needed to render any argument as to whether a varmint once existed totally moot. Its fast 1,875 fps muzzle velocity gives this bullet a handily flat trajectory, and further complements its destructive terminal performance.Customer Reviews

Each round in this case fires a 40-grain total metal jacket (TMJ) bullet at a high muzzle velocity of 1,875 feet per second. This results in a flat trajectory and good medium range accuracy with the point of impact being the same at 25 and 100 yards. While the total metal jacket projectile does not expand, it can be effective against varmints and small game with good shot placement when hunters don't want to ruin pelts.
CCI is one of the most well-regarded manufacturers of rimfire ammunition. Based in Lewiston, Idaho, alongside its sister company Speer, CCI operates as a division of the Vista Outdoor group of shooting related brands.

CCI Maxi-Mag 22 WMR 40 Grain CPHP - 2000 Rounds
$679.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer CCI Condition New Bullet Weight 40 Grain Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Use Type varmint hunting Casing Type Brass Quantity 2000 Ammo Caliber 22 Magnum (WMR) Manufacturer SKU 24 Primer Type Rimfire Magnetic No UPC Barcode 10076683000245 Cost Per Round 34¢ per round These Maxi-Mag cartridges from CCI are intended to help you squeeze every last bit of effective performance out of your rifle or pistol chambered in .22 Magnum. Each round is built using a rimfire case which contains CCI's famous, clean-burning primer compound at its base followed by a proven measure of powder. The load is crowned with a true jacketed hollow point (JHP) bullet which weighs in at 40 grains, typically the most powerful of comparable loads in the caliber due to a balance between mass and velocity.
The JHP has a rounded body for clean feeding in semi-automatics like the Kel-Tec PMR-30 and a precisely carved hollow cavity which facilitates for massive expansion during target entry. As the bullet deforms, it will leave a wake of destroyed tissue and organs which makes this ammo great for long-range rabbit hunts, groundhog stalking, and beaver extermination. These .22 WMR rounds come in a resealable and reusable plastic box with a sliding cover.
