Has anyone tried the latest? Just ordered 2 bricks so I guess I'll find out soon enough. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.cci-ammunition.com/images/new_products/quiet_22_longrifle.jpg) http://www.cci-ammunition.com/whatsnew/newproducts.aspx

Pretty cool Scott!
Looking forward to your experiences.

If I did the math correctly (it's been awhile), that bullet leaves the muzzle at 484 MPH, give or take. FWIW

No, going to as soon as I can find any and hoping it is waaay more accurate than CCI's CB Longs.

If you can find them, Rem makes a CBee 22LR, 33 HP, velocity is advertised as 740. Makes less noise than my springer 22. Wont cycle the 10-22, but pretty accurate. I did whack a feral cat with one, broadside lung shot at 41 yards.

Remington rimfire ammo skeers me, besides the CCI version is less expensive.

I stumbled on these in a gunshop and tried them. No misfires out of about 25 so far. You couldnt give me Rem bulk 22 stuff.

Those quiet 22's are not so quiet in a pistol, so try them where noise isnt a concern first. Used to shoot alot of CCI CB's. They will get the neighbors attention in a pistol.

I did an accuracy experiment with the remington cbee, CCI longs, and colbari 60 grain sub-sonic (spelling?, bought at cabelas). The remington was unreliable to fire or group, the cb longs did alright, but the 60 grains were very accurate in my old mossberg single shot "garden sniper" project. Matter of fact, they shot scary flat from 25 yeard to 50 yards so I need to experiment more on short range accuracy or find a chronagraph to verify speed.
Other than that, How was the show Mrs. Lincoln?

The Quiet ammo is getting good reviews at RFC. Will be shooting some of that soon enough. Good pig medicine.

CCI's CB Shorts and Longs propel 29grain round nose boolits I recall, at @727fps MV. Will be interesting to learn how many more foot-pounds this new 710fps 40grain load offers?  Ought to be good for helping to eliminate chamber-slop.

Picked up some CCI CB 22 SHORT ammo a few months ago. Nice accuracy out of an old Winchester Mod. 67. Low noise level and this spring I'm gonna chronograph a few to see how fast that 29 gr. lead round nose is going. CCI claims 710 fps. Will also try them out in a few other 22's. Even if they won't cycle a 10/22 it will be interesting. Wonder what they'd be like in my S&W 2206 TGT?

Nothing really, but they may be cb longs repacked in a different way and those shot so-so in all my 22's... and to let you know there are alternatives out there. Everyone else is suggesting other makes so I threw my two cents in. Thats the problem of asking peoples opinion on the internet... You usually get more than you expected. We look forward to your full report.

It will be interesting to try them against a box of Winchester Subsonics. I can't tell much difference in the subsonic .22lr and the regular .22shorts. Then again I live in the country where I don't really have to worry about sound.
