.22 R/F New Ammo Tech From CCI:

 CCI  Copper-22 is claiming muzzle velocity of 1,850 feet per second .. I guess that would have to be from a full length rifle barrel with it's 21 grain copper-polymer 'compressed' bullet.

And now they are offering two further CLEAN offerings that eliminate lead fouling in your actions and barrels .. loads that use 40 grain projectiles coated in polymer .. but of course if you were using the copper-polymer bullets there's no lead anyway.

The subsonic at 1,070 ft.per.sec. are colored blue - while the 1,235 ft.per.sec. high velocity rounds are red.

 CCI   CLEAN-22 

They are pricing these in the US market at around 10 cents each - so that suggests 20 NZ cents each by the time they've been thrown into a container addressed to us lot.

I've been moaning - about nothing much new happening in the shooting game - but if this 'two-two' stuff does as claimed it'll count for something eh .. 1,850 feet per second is something for a pea rifle to boast about - even if the slug is a bit low mass.

Hornady are claiming 1,000 ft.per.sec. from their 45 grain CRITICAL DEFENSE 22 WMR rounds .. optimized for low muzzle flash from handguns.

- It may well be the bee's knees out of a thirty round Kel-Tec PMR-30
