CCI Stingers with a 22A

[jim081523]

Hello,

I just purchased my 22A on 12/17 and I'm taking it to the range for the first time today. My friend gave me some CCI stingers that he no longer has use for. I think I read somewhere that you shouldn't use high velocity ammo in the 22A. Is that accurate?

Thanks!

We just got a 22A as well and shot the other day with CCI and Federal. Can't remember which specific CCI loads they were, but we encountered no problems. I will check when I get off shift.

The Stingers will work in your 22A, they actually fall into the Hyper-Velocity range and they will chew up your buffer faster than regular high-velocity .22LR. Most target .22 ammo that is known for it's accuracy is standard velocity, but in 5.5" barrels there really isn't that much differance between the two.

We shot CCI mini mag 22 lr hp. 36 grain without any problems.
