    In this video, we collect data and test the Federal Punch up against the classic CCI Stinger in Clear Ballistics gel. Punch is touted as a fantastic new round to make 22LR a more viable personal defense option, especially in short barrels. Stingers are the classic super high-velocity, pack-a-wallop rimfire round that can take care of varmints and other critters with ease.

    I was a victim of an attempted car jacking and defended myself with a Walter P22 with 10 rounds of Federal Punch. All I can say is it did what it was supposed to do. I’m alive to type this comment the other guys…not so much. Unfortunately. I’m sold on the Federal Punch. It saved my life.

      These detractors should come with me to the range. My Beretta M9 provided a very tight group 15 round group at 5 yards. Imagine how those
      15, or in your case, 10 rounds would stack up at car window distance.
      Like the 45 versus 9mm, the 22 versus 9mm, has less recoil meaning back on target immediately. My little old granny wife has the M9 at her desk for home defense. I’m betting her life on it. And if 15 rounds aren’t enough, she’s got 2 more mags to send your way. FYI, she’s a shoot til you go down, not an empty the msg kind of shooter.

    AH HELL YEA!!! I'm on some kind of remfire kick and in the past month have gained 22wmr/mag and several fun guns.
    Suppressed 22cb short is so quiet that the action of that revolver seems very loud. Yes, I said revolver, no, I'm not showing it off. With lower calibers, it's easy to cage cylinder gap gasses and force them esleware, preferably through a suppressor. The Downside is your revolver gets a little more dirty, especially in places it never did.

    The .22 LR cartridge has been around for literally generations and over 100+ yrs.
    It's taken an unbelievably huge list of critters in No. America, especially during the Great Depression, where millions of people were kept fed due to young eagle-eyed kids (younger than draft age) who would scrape up enough ca$h to buy a box of cartridges and proceed to stalk virtually ANYTHING that could pass for a meal for the family. My dad did.
    Within the past few years i have managed to pick up some Speer Gold Dots (of all things!) and yet have not seen any tests or reviews.
    Is there any possibility there could be a review on these in the near future?

    I have many boxes of first year manufacture Stingers from 1975. I still have 9 boxes left from what I found in a 30 cal can I put away decades ago and forgot about. Every year I shoot 20 rounds from what is left to see if they are still reliable. So far 100% ignition and full performance compared to recent production Stingers. Because of that, for long term storage I stick with Stingers for the proven longer than usual shelf life for .22LR. I also have a few boxes of Sears .22LR ammo my Dad bought in 1980 give or take a year. Few of them fire and if you pull the bullet, the powder literally looks and feels like grease. That Sears ammo is a good example for what I usually expect from 45+ year old .22LR ammo. Just thought y'all would find that interesting.

Inside my house I wouldn’t want the blast of a .223 probably, but I might end up there in shtf despite myself. .22 is extremely accurate and, after seeing so many of these videos, I think it works just fine.

    On small game, the impact of a CCI Stinger is legendary. It almost turns a standard .22 into a .22 mag. We got a permit to remove some large nuisance birds that were leaving a mess on playgrounds. We used pellet rifles, and subsonic .22 all the way up to Stingers. There was no comparison to the "crumpling affect" of 1600 fps.

    As with any defensive ammo, make sure your ammo of choice will function and shoot reliably in YOUR gun! This is doubly true for 22LR since they are often not the most reliable when it comes to feeding. I can't find any information about the Punch ammo, but Stingers have a longer than normal case and OAL. It probably won't matter for most 'defensive' guns, but I have seen warnings for some guns with match-style chambers to NOT use Stingers because of the case length.

    I kept a 10/22 with a bx25 magazine, flashlight and stingers in the corner for my girlfriend when I worked 3rd shift. We sleep upstairs so if someone ever made it through 2 locked doors hopefully they'd make enough noise for her wake up, get behind the book case and aim that thing at the fatal funnel aka long hallway at the top of the stairs. She's shot it enough to know how to clear dud rounds or malfunctions in the dark.

    • @Paelorian
      @Paelorian Год назад

      You don't want a .22LR to expand out of a defensive handgun. If the ammo expanded, it wouldn't be useful for anything larger than a squirrel or rabbit. .22LR lacks penetration. Although almost no available .22LR rounds expand at handgun velocities, they do not all achieve similar penetration. Federal Punch is the deepest penetrating .22LR round and the only one that penetrates 12" in gel even out of a 1⅞" snubnose barrel. It's consistent. The flat nose of the bullet should also cause slightly larger wound channels than the typical round nose.
      .22LR penetration has always been marginal. If relying on it to defend your life, it's important to choose the best round. Because most .22LR rounds underpenetrate when shot through a handgun, and Federal Punch doesn't, it's worth buying.
      With all "mousegun" handgun cartridges, careful ammunition selection is important to achieve minimum penetration standards from typical short handgun barrels. With .380, .32 ACP, and .32 Long, most non-expanding ammo will penetrate adequately, but expanding ammo won't. With .22LR, .22WMR, and .25 ACP, only the very best premium rounds designed for handgun use will consistently penetrate adequately (to FBI spec minimum 12" in ballistics gel). With .22 Short, no available round will penetrate adequately. Even though there isn't a great difference in velocity out of a very tiny barrel like a NAA mini-revolver, .22LR is a much better performer than the Short because it has rounds like Punch that can decently penetrate.
      Underpenetrating rounds can still kill easily if put in the right place, but they also run the risk of not penetrating deep enough into the body of an attacker to stop them from killing a victim. It's happened many times. You want a round that can sink deep enough into the body to do damage. It might need to break through a bone or pass through a large amount of flesh to disable an attacker.

    Currently the 22 LR ammo that strikes the best balance of bullet weight and muzzle velocity to achieve the greatest power is CCI’s Stinger 22 LR Ammo. This round has a 32 grain CPHP bullet loaded to a muzzle velocity of 1,640 fps. The hyper-velocity Stinger cartridge boasts a whopping 191 ft lbs of muzzle energy. It furthermore remains supersonic past 75 yards, so it delivers an impressively flat trajectory.

  • @jerrybobteasdale

    Looks like one should expect a Stinger or a Punch to tumble at lower muzzle velocities. So, a short barrel or long distance will lessen chance of mushrooming, but will increase the chance of tumbling after impact. Either thru tumbling or mushrooming, you get more tissue damage.

I keep my sons revolver loaded with federal when we are out in the woods and I've used it to kill a hog from about 15 yards with federal punch straight between the eyes drop instantly siezed up and died within about 30 seconds so thats what ive carried ever since and out of the rifle always CCI stinger. My woods gun is a MP 2.0 in 10mm

    Fun video to watch, probably more fun to make, anyway, after watching the impact to the gel blocks I was surprised at how much more impact shock the 16 inch barrel delivered over the pistol barrel. The Stinger seemed to win out on initial shock caused to the gel block when fired out of the rifle. Great job showing the differences.

    Y'all can do what you want, but before i even start the video , I already know the punch will penetrate farther. If we're talking about 22lr self defense , penetration would be my top factor. That being said, 22lr isn't my first choice.

    • @chuckhaggard1584
      @chuckhaggard1584 7 месяцев назад

      What?
      The reason why this bullet has a flat point is to help insure straight, nose forward, penetration, nothing to do with the BS made up terms you are misspelling. RN bullets tend to yaw, which cuts into penetration depth.

    Of course, the next question is which ammo has the best consistency of performance. Does the Punch exhibit any bad primers or underloads? I've always found the CCI to be remarkably consistent, and everything else is crap. Even federal.
    Take about five mags of both brands and with a chronograph, see how many bad primers and underperforming loads you get from each one.

    The Red Barron was killed by a shot from the ground, using a .303 British shot from an infantryman with an Enfield rifle. The round hit the side of the cockpit and tumbled through the pilot's body. The estimated cavitation was 8" through his body, liquifying organs as the round exited his body. He lived long enough to land in a field, then fell out of the plane as he said "Kaput" meaning 'over'.
    I wouldn't want to be shot with any of your .22 magnum rounds. Any penetration greater than 7" is going out the target's back.

    Agreed, very interesting results. Indeed. I too believe in Stingers, have for decades. The most effective, best element of the Stinger is sadly no longer present. When CCI decided to end the PentaPoint projectile, it definitely changed the wound channel characteristics. Still an excellent job for the task it's asked to take on.
