Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Quiet-22

Midway was back ordered, so I ordered a brick from cheaper than dirt.

$ 41. delivered to Oregon.

Can't wait to try these out in my CZ Scout!

I couldn't get them to shoot with any consistency out of my Kimber K22. The groups, from a bench, were about 4-8" lower than the CCI Match ammo that I had been using. They were very quiet out of a 22" barrel, but I can't see using them for much.

Try the Remington CBEE's! They have a LR configuration/length, etc., but generate 740fps with a 33grain bullet.

Also if necessary try the CCI Target 'Short' round. It operates at @830 fps with a 29 grain round lead bullet, if you don't mind a .22short round.

C'mon Steelie--we need the report! You're not doing much else important......

shot some out of my Sako finnfire with a lilja barrel and they shot about 6" low but did get a 1/2" group at 50 yards

My brick of CCI Quiet 22 came in yesterday.

Will testfire it this week-end in my CZ Scout. If it won't "shoot" in it, I'll try it in my Weatherby MK XX11.

If it won't shoot in either of these, I'll try 'em in my Winchester 67.

Testfired the CCI Quiet 22 in my CZ Scout.

Got 1/2" to 7/8" groups for an average of about 3/4" at 30 yards.

This isn't going to cut it, since this gun will shoot 1/4" with ammo it likes.

Will try it in my Weatherby and Winchester 67 today.

If anyone is interested there's a 24 page thred over on Rimfire Centeral on the CCI Quiet 22.

Excellent!

Looking forward to your further range reports.

Shot the CCI Quiet 22 in my Weatherby and Winchester 67.

Got two 3/4" groups at 30 yards with the Weatherby. This ain't cuttin it either,

Got 1-1/2" for my old Winchester 67 with open sights. Guss this ammo will be regulated to it.

Oh well, I live in the country and don't really need to be quiet! (grin!) Was just wanting to have quiet ammo for early morning shots on varmits without being heard.

3/4" isn't too bad for "backyard" distances. I have some Rem CeeBee that I should accuracy test, even though they don't seem all that quiet to me.

I'd be happy with 3/4" at 30yds, that is much better than any of the CBs I've tried in various rifles.

bump to get a report...

Just bought 4 boxes ... will givem a run outta my 39A's ... one new one older Mountie.

Sensing a loss of enthusiasm in the crowd.

Heard Obama wants to ban them ....

(That should re-invigorate the natives)

A few reports on accuracy but I was hoping for reports on the sound, (they are labeled *Quiet-22* after all) compared to CB short that do not feed from the clip in my Cooper.

CB's are probably 1.5" at 30 yards in my rifles but that is more than sufficient for a backyard varmint round.

I would use Quiet-22 if they will feed from a clip even if they are marginally louder, and they should be with a heavier bullet at almost the same velocity as a CB short.

I also posted a report on Winchester CB Longs that I found recently, they have similar specs to the Quiet-22 and received a 131 views but 0 feedback. And this thread is up to 10 pages. Maybe rimfire is just a dead topic.

any feild test updates on these? bump...

Interesting. For small game and 'quiet' - a good airgun is a good investment. Even a simple cheap Daisy Powerline can do very well, esp. w/a good scope and good pellets.

I agree w/Scott - never had good luck w/Rem Rimfire ammo.

I've shot them once at the range, but don't have any memorable accuracy results. They will feed from the magazine in my 10/22 (manually) and my Anschutz. IIRC, they will not cycle the 10/22, even with the assisted blowback of a suppressor. I do remember that POI was noticeably lower at 25yds vs my usual subsonic loads in both rifles.
In the unsuppressed Anschutz they are noticeably louder than CBs, but not as loud as most subsonic rounds (Remington/Winchester or CCI). No surprise there. I'll test them for 25-30yd accuracy in the Anschutz. Unless they're more accurate at distance than the 10/22 is suppressed (unlikely), I probably won't bother getting any more of them.

I got 1/2" and under groups @ 50 yards out of my sako funnfire with lilja barrel but they wont kill that well out at that yardage, my Benjamin Marauder 25 cal kills better out at 50 yards than the quite 22's do and its alot more quieter
