- In this video, I compare 6 different .22LR's from CCI in a ballistics gel test. The gel blocks I use are 20% clear ballistics gel and he gun I used is the Ruger 10/22.

CCI makes the best .22lr ammunition in my opinion, Federal is up there as well! Great family fun! I had a friend many years ago, had an intruder enter his house. All that he had was a 10/22, with the standard 10 round magazine, he shot him in the legs a few times, but he kept coming. So he emptied the rest of the cartridges in his chest, he then collapsed and died. So yes, a 22lr will definitely kill you, with good shot placement. Good video, the audio was just fine!👍👍
Federal and CCI are owned by the same people, the only difference is what factory the ammo comes out of. American Eagle is also a Federal subsidiary.
Freedom First yes a .22 can definitely be a deadly round. I’ve seen several dead people from them with various rifle and pistols. Once had a 63 year old man shot in the side of his arm and it left a zipper looking mark half way across his chest he was doa, I’ve been working a busy metro area as a paramedic now 19 years and all calibers are deadly.
The IDF tried the Ruger 10/22 as a less lethal option for border control.
They discovered that it isn't.
could have went head shot?
@@thisismyusername6717You’d be surprised what auto glass does to even larger center fire handgun rounds.
The Suppressor at 960 ft/s just means it's subsonic or less that 1050 ft/s and would be quieter due to not breaking the sound barrier. Great test and yeah try this the Aguila .22 lr Supermaxium = 192 Energy Foot Pounds 30gr 1700 ft/s. Amazingly it ties in Energy Foot Pounds with Remington UMC FMJ 380 ACP L380APA = 192 Energy Foot Pounds 95gr 955 ft/s. Based on my findings. Keep the great videos coming.
in my real-world testing i've used the velocitors quite a bit and i've been very pleased with their performance. the terminal effect has been consistently devastating and provided instantaneous humane dispatch on all the smaller varmint species appropriate to the calibre. they sure can be pricey though - but worth the money i think.
Velocitor i call that one the dinosour n yes i agree thats one of the most accurate, the second is 1280 fps hp, depending on weight of gun too.
36G Mini Mag is all I use period . Whether it's small game or targets shooting.
It's one of the only ones that cycles reliably in my 10/22 Heavy Takedown and 22/45 MK IV Tactical.
I was at the range yesterday . I ran 200 through the 22/45 . I had 1 malfunction. I shot almost 150 through 10/22 and had 0 malfunctions
I have a tippman ar-22 and have shot hundreds and never jammed. I love the 10/22 but i will take my tippman anyday. Also its fluted with red accents so thats a plus for my style lmao. A bit pricey as far as .22 goes but worth the pennies.
@@thisismyusername6717 I couldn't agree more . I picked up Tippmann M4-22 Pro about 16 months ago . I literally never shoot my 10/22 now .
I have 3k+ through my Tippmann . IMO the Tippmann takes the crown for the best 22lr AR
@@seanwhite304 yeah they call it a M4-22 but from my understanding the only difference between an M4 is barrel length and it being full auto. Sounds cool but imma call it an AR to be accurate lol. Im with you tho! Thing is so light and the 25 round mag is just awesome. I just wish i could find a drum mag bc the tippman has a different mag well than other .22’s
@@seanwhite304 i bought paintball guns from tippman when i was a kid. they were also top of the line and everyone was always giving my setup compliments. So when i heard they made a .22 the extra $ was zero problem. Also my FFL dealer said “holy shit” when i sent him the link so here we are🤣🤣
Thanks for the test! There must be something about that gel that masks the performance of the hollow points. I've shot hundreds of Velocitors, out of the exact same type of 10/22 Carbine, on all kinds of meaty targets and the results have been devastating! Cheers!
I like CCI very well and I've used it since it first came out but I have been used in aguila 22 lately and that is a fine ammunition
Great video. All things considered.... any small game that gets hit by any of these .22 rounds will die. Honestly I'd go for accuracy over the penetration and wound channel. If you cant hit what your aiming at, it doesn't matter how wicked it performs.
Andy brooks you are so Right about Accuracy than damage
Very true but cci stinger is super hot, from experience ever small game I took, those wound are big
Thats why i love to use my .17 for small game extermination. Ive dropped about a dozen beavers with one shot, a few muskrats too. Thing is so light and so accurate. And plus when the .17 hits a beaver skull the bullet practically explodes amd well…it aint pretty on the exit.
@@thisismyusername6717 last beaver I shot was with a 7.62x54R out of a M44.
@@user-qo3yy9nv1u did beaver explode ? 😂
I’m 73 and used .22 s/l/lr since I was 5 yoa. I terminated,starling, squirrel,chipmunk,rabbit,skunk,racoon,armadillo,pigeon,rabid dog and drink cans full of water.
Cool Cool... .22LR are great for defense with an accurate shooter. Plus, you can PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE for cheap. Love CCI Varmint/HP. Great Video and nice to see another lefty sporting a Ruger 10/22.
Great comparison of 22 ammo. I'm always interested to see how the little 22 does in different gel tests, mostly because I am too cheap to get my own. 🤣🤣
If you get inspired to do another test, try throwing some denim on the gel and see how they do.
I love your vids so funny to see you in these comments lol. Good morning ! You use clay lol
@@Texan-1911 Thanks for the support!
Its cheap to make your own and you can always remelt it
CCI should really pay you for this
Another great test, I've always leaned towards Mini-Mag solids. They work in all my .22's. Thanks bro.
The best 22lr ammo is whatever is on sale. My Dad is still shooting 22s he stocked up on in the 60s with very few misfires, still shoots them from a Winchester 190, marlin mod 60 and an Ar 7 he picked up in the 70s. He still uses two H&R 999s one from 1936 the other from 1952, an Iver Johnson mod 57-A from 1957 and several others. I have yet to find a youtube video doing anything he cant do with those old guns and old ammo other than throwing money away.
22 is 1 of my favorite calibers too. 22 Stingers are awesome
Velocitor is a semi HP design meant to provide minimal expansion adding a little to the wounding capacity without sacrificing penetration. RN .22LR (Like the Mini Mag) are almost always going to get the most penetration amongst different .22 ammo.
I'd run away from a bb gun! Unarmed. Nobody wants to get hit by a 22 trust me!
2 years later and it still holds up!! Lol some things have changed but not a lot, the ammo. Thanks man
I have used the Velocitor on coyote as far out as 120 yards. They made pretty impressive wounds most of the time. For smaller game they all do fairly well but the Stinger and the segmented load are vicious. For personal defense I would definitely stick with the Mini mag 40gr solid though.
Stingers are my favourite for taking out rabbits without them kicking too much or running away if I miss slightly.
The Richie awesome comment, i just got a 22 for my boy and aso got the Velocitor, also hunting coyotes. Can’t wait to put it to the test. 120 yards is impressive. 50 yard 0 or 100? Thanks
Down here in Australia, Stingers are my favourite for collecting the odd fox or tomcat from out up to 80 metres or so with my Lithgow rifle. Its true they are a truly vicious round especially for a .22. I use plain old cci standards for rabbits because they are quiet enough and the price is right. I have a mate that hunts wallaby for meat down in Tasmania and prefers minimags for that.
@@BombadilHillStudios Always love to see Australian gun owners
@@BombadilHillStudios Please don't shoot cats. I know the situation down under but cats are domesticated animals and a friend of man.
The .22LR is DEFINITELY capable of being lethal under the right circumstances :)
Looks to me like the old fashion 40gr solid is hard to beat.
Great comparison test. My first choice is always CCI Mini mags. Very few if any misfires or jams. Can usually pick up 100 for $10.00-12.00. Worth the money if you ask me. I have several .22 long guns. It works great in all of them and in one it is just about the only thing it will run well at all.
Mini-Mags here too. The Velocitors seems to be inconsistent. I see others like em tho, whatever works.
The Taurus TX22 is a great 22lr pistol. What most people don't understand about those that carry 22lr for self defense is that those people are not going to shoot a threat once or twice and stop, there going to mag dump that threat. When your talking about the TX22, taking 16-17 rounds of anything means your probably not getting back up. Plus there are so many good defensive 22lr rounds these days it's much different then it was 30-40 years ago when there was only a couple different round and only a couple of guns that used them. Now even the guns themselves are getting to be a much better quality.
I've got a tx22 and love it lol. Anytime someone questions why I carry it over my 9mm I tell them exactly what you just said....if I can mag dump that thing into a threat..which I believe I could.. I'd be confident that it's a reliable carry weapon.
Just picked up 600 rds of cci mini mag 36 g on sale 300 per box 18$ . 600 for 36$ not bad they do a dam good job on backyard critters
local store or on-line? great price!
CCI is the undisputed rim fire ammo champ . None better.
yep i ran thru 600 rounds before a failure to fire.
Maybe not in America, but go to a match and all you will see is European. Lapua, SK, Eley, RWS are all far superior to CCI. CCI is great for its price point, though.
Best ammo Is the one you can hit your target with
Excellent Comparison, nice to see the different results from the different rounds, all in one video ! Good Job!
I see my dog Cleo got ahold of your hat! Lol I remember shooting some Winchester Power Point .22lr back in 2002 into some snow. They expended with the snow! Great video!
10rds of 22lr beat a pointy stick.
1 on 1 of course!
FACT, more people have been killed in America by .22 than any other caliber.
Google it and see. In other countries that may not be true.
I suspect a jury would be more likely to give a shooter using a .22 and claiming self defense the benefit of doubt than someone using a larger caliber rifle or handgun.
*It isn't the caliber most people would choose if they wanted to kill someone.*
@@mgheichert that actually is true and mostly thanks to the Mafias at certain points of history in America 😂
I had to put down a large dog that attacked a small child. About a hundred pound dog. I couldn't shoot the head for I had to send it off for rabies testing. So I put 2 in the heart. Dropped like a sack of taters. Used CCI mini mags.
would love to see this test with a 3 inch barreled pistol.
Velocitors are freaking awesome
The 22LR put bunnies n hogs down like nothing. They stop people in one shot 65% of the time
I'll go for the mini mag anytime. Great presentation.
I just went to the range and shot CCI Standard velocity and CCI Mini Mags. The mini mags were awesome. The standard velocity showed some smoke with each shot, but the Mini mags showed fire(flame) with each shot. Mini mags, if possible, from now on.
Rounds curve up because blocks are sitting on a flat hard surface, sit blocks on two bits of 2x1/2 down length of gel blocks and you will see a difference. The gel can only expand up and to the sides with them sitting on flat surface.
“I could be wrong”
Yup 👍
The best CCI is green tag, The best 22 Ammo is Lapua Super long range. CCI is really good but all 22LR have inconsistencies, all of them, because poor consistency in bullet weight, powder weight, primer charge, case weight, and lip thickness. Also all advertised velocities are off.
Last 10/22 I had the owner's manual stated NOT to use CCI Stingers. Case length is different. Just a suggestion.
so that you can see the bullets better next time you shoot, put a flashlight on the opposite side of the block so that the light shines through the block. I liked your video very much
Dude bring a sandwich to your filming's DON'T EAT YOUR HAT 🤣🤣🤣🤣 thanks for all you do 😁umm remember mc'ds has a dollar menu 😋
🤣🤣
Dad joke alert lol.
Standard velocity lead nose has always been the most reliable in Ruger Mark 4 and 10/22 for me. Of course I keep clean firearms and especially clean magazines.
Great job on your decisions regarding content. Keep it up, we'll keep watching.
Great video.. as always. Liked & Subscribed. I like the point that you’re not out here trying to prove ANYTHING except what’s the best product.
Velocitor is my favorite all around round for smaller game.
( Secretly ) not only small games 😉if you do had shots 😂pigs up to 80 pounds fall on the spot!
Good video! You answered a lot of the questions I had.
Gotta love that Central Illinois wind! Summer home in Loda gives me as much wind burn as sunburn!
22 broke my hip in 2016 bounced around while I ran broke even more parts of my pelvis 22 short is no joke I couldn't imagine a 22lr or magnum I wouldn't be walking today
Chris McCandless shot a moose with a 22 caliber rifle in Alaska in the early 90’s . Chances are he was using the cheapest ammo. Definitely not cci quality. It’s literally all about shot placement.
I always wondered about what model and load he had. From his background I would suspect that someone with knowledge set him up with reliable stuff.
The segmented round would be pretty nice any heavy tissue area's that are hit is gonna have tons of fragments . And it's 22 so your gonna have 3-4 round in the same spot easy.
It would be interesting to see all CCI ammo tested in one video. I've searched all RUclips and can find a lot of CCI but none of every CCI 22 load in one video.
Do all the CCI's, including the CCI Mini Mag hollow point.
While I agree that 22 LR is fun & cheap to shoot, I prefer shooting a bolt action & a revolver chambered in 22 Magnum. I shoot 22 LR too, and there’s some really good premium ammo out there. Just hard to beat the 22 Magnum for slightly increased performance. I also attribute my choice to this, when wearing hearing protection, it makes the 22 LR seem so anemic. Not that the perceived power changes anything, but the 22 Magnum does have an actual jacketed copper bullet & increased velocity.
Pistol or revolver next time please. Maybe S&W M&P Compact or Ruger LCR
Thanks
Nothing wrong with the audio. Phone user here. Great vid thumbs up
It’s all about shot placement. You can wound with a .45 or drop someone with a .22
Interesting test to see! Weird how the CCI Mini Mag had the biggest wound channel, yet wasn't a hollow point. I think if you would have used some denim in front of the ballistic gel block, the test may have turned out differently, as that's what is used in FBI gel tests I do believe. Anyways, new subscriber here and the content looked good! Thanks
CCI Mini Mags for the guns and CCI AR Tacticals for the AR15's
I really enjoy your channel fella. I'm English and don't have the luxury of sporting guns here. I'll share your channel
I use standard velocity exclusively. Easy on the guns, accurate and reliable.
Yep.
Most accurate until you get into expensive competition ammo
CCI suppressor is the only thing that runs out of my Smith and Wesson Victory.
Great video!!!
CCI's velocities and point of impact can shift from lot number to lot number... good stuff but buy all you can of the same lot
Alaskan Ballistics Thanks! Good to know.
It's interesting how the you tube films work. You say the .22 aint deadly, yet I saw some old boys shoot the bullets through 10 sheets of dry wall and exit, and another dude shoot some .22 through a thick chunk of wood. Im not half wondering if some of those bullets are charged up and others are weak plinking bullets. Cornfusing to me. .22's are fun and cheap ammo to use at the range for a day of shooting in my belief. I have a Sig 5-55 which is dead on military accurate and I can tell the difference between brands and how the bullet is loaded. Some of those puppies have a cool little kick back, while others are predictable. Cool match up, but I forgot which bullets have a kick back. LOL! All bullets are accurate in my gun.
Excellent video as always ! 👍
The copper round nose did more damage than any of the others. Shouldve had some leather in front of the gel i think we would see a difference in performance.
Love my Velocitors. Don't jam like the Stingers in my TX22.
It’s crazy how the solid points do such a crazy wound
Hi thank you so much for this video
What kind of ammo are you shooting at minutes 1:57 ? I see you don’t wear ear protection. Did it hurt your ear ?
Thank you
22lr federal punch is my all time favorite
Great video. I would like to see a comparison between the Remington Yellow Jacket, and CCI Stinger. Growing up in North Florida , hunting squirrels and rabbits there was always a debate on which one was the best.
How big of a hole do you need to take down a rabbit or squirrel ???
Nice video..clear and right on ...now i know the difference...thanks lot...
I'm 50 years old. I've used the CCI Stinger for many years on woodchucks and coyotes and never had a critter get away. The Magic of the Stinger is the construction of the bullet and the speed. Far better than any other American made Hyper Velocity H.P. that exists. Aguila makes a Hyper Velocity round that can compete, but I forget the exact name of it off hand.
I believe you are referring to the Aguilla Interceptor
I think you are correct Aguila does make one that goes 1,700fps I think it’s the SuperMaximum.
I introduced my niece to shooting using the Walther P22 with CCI Mini-Mags. Standard velocity ammunition doesn't reliably cycle that pistol and I wanted a good impression. It would have been fun if you could have done a mag dump into the gel at the end.
Fudmottin Thats weird you say that bc i contemplated doing exactly that after I was done. Decided not to because i wanted to get the bullets out in good shape. I will next time. Pistol vid
@@1ShotTV Have the high speed camera on it to catch the action. It could prove to be way cool. 😎
Great stuff
No expansion the go through the block
Repeat this same ammo test with a 22 pistol. Maybe the Ruger LCP II or a Walther P22. 😊
MiniMags mad respect.
i killed 5 squrriels today. CCi Stingers did an incredible job without that "major wound cavity" 🔥🔥🔥
You missed out on the meat eater at 1850fps copper hollow points!!! Those are flat nasty!!! Went through 3 2x4s and kept on trucking
My squirrels don't carry gel blocks with them, just nuts. Do I have the wrong squirrels?
Yoooo love ur stuff and would love to see a kinda reliabilty/torture test with the ruger 10/22 always wandered if it is a reliable gun under the elements
I own a Marlin XT 22LR, is it okay to shoot CCI Minimag?
Good video Jesse!
Great video cci makes one call copper 22 if you can find them 1850fps
I normally like shooting the fastest heaviest round possible
Do all the cci .22s
That video was good would like to see one with a semi auto pistol 😁
Great vid boss. Very informative. Btw, what kind of scope do you have on your 10/22?
RWS and Lapua make the best 22lr ammo. CCI ist well known, but lightyears away accuracywise... Greetings from Germany ;-)
Velpcotor will go through if you have it, my guess before watching it all. Likely minimag non hollow points too
Very good video. Been trying to decide what round to carry in Ruger LCR. Looks like Stinger may be the one. ?? Do use Federal bulk for practice. Again good job on your video.
Or maybe mini mag ??
Like the hat crown lift trucks. You gained a sub.
Thanks for good content! Which state are you in?
CCI used to make a Viper 22 if I remember it was a hyper velocity something like 2200 ft/s. Does anyone know about these?
Remington makes a Viper round but I don’t remember cci I’m not saying that they didn’t I just don’t remember and now I’m curious
@@robertharing7031 i remember buying them in 1981
I was shooting back then but I can’t remember but I’m going to try to do some homework and find out what I can because I love a good scooby mystery
@@robertharing7031 they came in the plastic box of 50 rounds

Great review homey, maybe try 22mag out of a snub nose vs rifle. Channel lookin good my friend! 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻🇺🇸
treyh007 Thanks! Good idea.
Thank You
Great info!!
You should test the cci copper 22 they are moving at 1850fps I like shooting them at steel they make a cool ring
Supposedly you shouldn't shoot the stingers in the 10/22
The gel block is bogus. The wound cavity is way deeper than any animal you shooting is thick. So the segmented, and all the hollow points are impact immediate damage. The added speed i.e. 1640 fps adds to the explosiveness in real life. Shoot each one at a grapefruit or squash. Those round nose just leave a small hole, the hollow points will leave a way bigger exit hole and the 1640 fps stinger will probably explode them! JS
