    Got to shoot on the range on Saturday so I can now be sure of how far I am shooting. Mild to moderate easterlies that day.

    I shoot about 10 rounds of new ammo when changing type to sight in before trying for groups.

    CCI Standard velocity up first at 50m and 100m.

    Next up, CCI Sub-Sonic at 50/100. These seemed a little odd in that they were louder than the CCI Standard Velocity rounds. The loudness varied too, so I assume some rounds had a bit more oomph.

    Last, CCI Suppressor at 50/100. These were certainly quiet, but waxy as hell. I noticed wax rubbing off on the magazine after loading it, and a little wax appearing at the chamber entrance. Ejecting the spent brass was also a bit rough and took a fair amount of effort. I probably won't buy these again.

    I'm going to spend more time at the range tomorrow and will try something other than CCI.
