Has any one used the 22's that have no powder only primers used? Some one gave me a few and I tried them in my 22a-1 and was very inpressed.

CB caps, Kolibris, stuff like that? Yep, I've used them. Don't have much need for them, but I'm glad they're around for shooting rats in barns, etc.

I've used them in the past, but they're getting harder to find. Colibri makes them now, but in the past they were available from several different manufacturers. The BB caps had no powder, and the CB caps had a very light charge. They're great for shooting in your basement, about the same noise as a pellet rifle.
