Thread: cci stinger

Hi has anyone on here had much experience with CCI stinger 22lr? I have read that they are hyper velocity at 1640fps... I've just purchased a Zastava CZ99 rifle and want to try a few different brands through it.

Does anyone else on hear have a Zastava who knows a bit more about them?

I prefer the cci velocitors, heavier projectile - but they retain more velocity further out.

yip, the stinger is good for harder critters like possums, my favourite round for the job.

Plus they have a picture of a Raptor on the front! What more could you want?!

The 32gr segmented stuff is good at short range.
Aussie made power point is good stuff and goes well in most, American is shit hardly expands at all and inaccurate.
Try the 42gr segmented powerpoint, its expensive but terminal effect is great for a 22lr.

Velocitors pack a punch alright !
Shot a coon at 15mtrs with one ....Turned it inside out !! my mate and I were like

Don't shoot well at all in my 22 ( Stirling ) .

I have never got stingers shooting well either. Ditto the Velocitor, they hit steel plates with authority at 200m (for a .22), some of them even clock in over 1400 fps.

Never got consistent groups out of either.

Out of what rifle? My marlin 795 spits the velocitors out quite nicely.

Ruger 10/22 . The velo's were more accurate, but still not very ... and the stingers were all over the place

There's the problem!

but the CCI subs are great. so how can that be !! ??

My Marlin likes rem,fed,win,cci that I have tried

Cheers for the advice, I normally run CCI subs through my norinco but always keen to try something different, reason I asked about the stingers is I have bought some but the cases are different length so wanted to check anyway, I also have some of the aussie power point to try..
