    CCI suppressor .22lr

    Just tried some of these in my rifle and mosquito.

    They shot really well considering it was quite blustery today at the range.

    I could watch the projectiles fly in to the target at 50m thru the scope.😆
    I would buy a heap but they were pretty dear at $15 bucks for 50. Is that the norm or am I getting ripped?

    They are expensive everywhere I looked, and really slow. I decided to stick with cci subsonic

    They look good.
    I didn't like the terminal performance of cci subs so will have to give these ago.

    I bought a 500gram bag of little plastic balls, if you press one into the hollow point of a cci sub(and I assume other brands) they seem to kill a lot better, and still cost half as much as this new load.

    Admittedly I only bought one box,and only shot paper with it, but 5 grains doesn't seem like it would make up for almost 100 fps

    Wow, good thread guys, firstly I have never seen these suppressor versions of CCI subs, gotta get some ( just paid $18 for a 100 box of normal CCI subsonic , thieving pricks ) That trick with the balls in the hollow point....never heard of that one, classic.
    I am going to try to open up the hollow points and see how that goes. Shooting average of 30 - 50 mtrs and wonder while they still have a bit of velocity that I try to get a bit more expansion going.

    970 and 45 gr, a grunty pcp will do that.... Classy airguns certainly have their place��
