    CCI quiet 22 ???

    Is this the new name for their subsonic or something??
    I am seeing this at the local mark-it-up but am not seeing any subsonic anywhere.

    I would really hate to have to switch to Remington subsonic, that stuff sucks donkey butt.

    Just looked up the muzzle-velocity of these: 710 FPS with 40gr bullet - Well below the sound barrier and even slower than regular sub-sonic 22. Sounds like they may simply be under-charged .22 LR cartridges like a CB round. They probably won't cycle in a semi-auto.

    I use the CCI quiet.

    works with a suppressed 10/22.


    I bought it cause my Brownie cant take normal pressure.

    Personally I'd rather have the Remington Subsonic vs. Aguila's Subsonic. I hear a lot of variation with the Aguila and none with the Remington.

    I don't trust the quality control of the Aguila stuff to begin with, let alone shooting it through my suppressor.
    I'll shoot their Colibri (powderless)all day though.

    Remington subsonic seems underpowered. Once my P22 gets dirty the Rem stuff won't feed or function properly yet the CCI Subsonic will still power through.

    That doesn't surprise me. CCI brand is THE best .22 lr ammo made in the US imo.

    I bought a brick of CCI Quiet .22 LR. Practially silent through my suppressors, but it will not cycle my S&W 15-22, Ruger SR22, or my Ruger MKIII 22/45 LITE with or without the suppressor attached.
    - Change it back -

    Well that sucks. I can't find any CCI Subsonic locally but keep seeing the "quiet" stuff around.

    CCI is all I used to shoot through my 10-22s and suppressor. Now its turning towards Winchester plated stuff..
