Posted By: gremcat CCI Poor Service - 04/09/21
Kind of bummed to deal with the hassle. They had one type in stock so I bought 2 bricks, 2.5 mos ago. I saw the packing slip on one and oddly it read like both in the tiny box. Checked order status abd second was processing still. I was pretty patient since things are crazy. Checked this week and still processing an in stock item. The way it had to ring out I paid double shipping vs free but is what it is. I emailed finally and the response said they had combined the orders. Few problems there. They charged me double shipping and handling then. They didn’t actually ship. They still show the second order processing. I replied with pics since I was skeptical of the weird packing slip. I hadn’t unpacked the shipping box yet. I also sent pic of the screen showing order open. No response at all. Guessing it’ll be a goat rope. I haven’t done it before but guess I could call my bank and stop the charge. What a CTF.....

Thankfully it’s been freezing here and now chasing trout. 452 threaded needs a range trip. Curious to see how Velocitors do.

The reason no one is responding is they can’t figure out just what you complaint is. Since when has an ammunition manufacturer dealt directly with an individual?

Longest bearing surface of the CCI round up from the types I have shot over the years.
1/2 " 10 shot grp at 50 yd ammo off bench and bags with a savage mkII bull barrel.
2 to 3 flyers outta a group will expand it to 3/4ths " and tick ya off.
Bx of 50 digital scale weighed out range from 51.2 grs to 52.1 gr range
30 to 35 of em will weigh 51.7 to 51.8 grs
Those are your one ragged hole group ones.


Take the 15 mins to weigh out a bx.
Recal your scale every 10 to 15 rds.
Make a magic marker dot center on pan.
Set each rd gently down on that.
Let weight reading settle for 2 to 3 seconds
Snatch off pan straight up.

Repeat...

OCD...... Kinda....
random flyers.... you can take ownership of them then.




YMMV........
But I have done this with velocitors, SGB,s , Blazer 40gr, mini mag 40gr
LOT#,s matter also.
Find an accurate Lot# = buy more of em.
51.7 to 51.8 is the magic # across the board .
Use the others for fun shooting/ plinking.

Rene,

May I suggest you grab yourself a Redding triple beam. No more recalibrating, or worrying about drift.

Ultimate for the .22 and turkey shot weighing.
