CCI CB 22 Short 29gr LRN – Quiet Low-Noise Rimfire Ammo, 710 fps, 100 Rounds

Description

The CCI CB 22 Short 29gr LRN load is built for shooters who want to keep the noise down. CCI pairs a 29 grain lead round nose bullet with a very light powder charge, producing a rated muzzle velocity of just 710 feet per second. The result is a soft, quiet report that is far less disruptive than standard .22 ammunition, making it ideal for backyard target practice where legal, teaching new shooters and dispatching pests around barns and gardens at close range.

Why Choose the CCI CB 22 Short 29gr LRN

• 29 grain lead round nose bullet
• Rated 710 fps for low noise and recoil
• Reliable CCI priming and brass
• Accurate at short plinking distances
• 100 rounds per box, CCI 0026

Built for Quiet Shooting

• Much quieter report than standard .22 loads
• Great for teaching new and young shooters
• Handy for close-range pest control
• Fits guns chambered for .22 Short, and many .22 LR guns as a single shot

If you shoot .22 Short ammunition in a .22 LR chamber, clean the chamber afterward. The shorter case can leave a ring of fouling that makes it harder to chamber standard .22 LR rounds later. A quick pass with a chamber brush solves the problem.

Even quiet ammunition is still a real firearm load. A lead round nose bullet at 710 fps can travel a long distance and cause serious injury, so treat every shot with the same care as full-power ammunition and always use a safe backstop. CCI has built rimfire ammunition in Lewiston, Idaho for decades, and its priming is known for dependable ignition.

CB loads are a great tool for introducing new shooters to rimfire rifles. The mild report and almost nonexistent recoil help beginners focus on the basics: safe muzzle direction, a steady hold, sight alignment and a smooth trigger press. Once those habits are in place, moving up to standard .22 ammunition feels like a natural next step.

They are also handy for dispatching small pests such as rats and sparrows in and around outbuildings, where a quieter shot is less likely to disturb livestock or neighbors. Choose a safe angle and backstop, and avoid shooting toward hard surfaces that could cause ricochets.

Getting the Most From Quiet 22 Ammo

CB stands for Conical Ball, a load style that dates back more than a century. This cb 22 short round uses just enough powder to push the bullet at subsonic speed, so there is no supersonic crack and very little muzzle blast. Many shooters find it quiet enough for practice on private land in rural areas where standard .22s would bother neighbors. Always check local laws first.

Because the velocity is low, this quiet 22 ammo will not cycle semi-automatic actions. It works best in bolt-action, lever-action and single-shot rifles and in revolvers. The short case also fires in many .22 LR chambers when loaded one at a time, though accuracy may drop and some fouling can build up in the chamber over time.

Low velocity also means less energy, so keep shots on pests short and precise, typically inside 25 yards.

Backyard plinkers, parents teaching kids, gardeners dealing with small pests and anyone who wants low noise 22 ammo will get dependable performance from this 100-round box. Always confirm your firearm can safely fire .22 Short, know what is beyond your target, and follow all federal, state and local laws.
