The CCI Stinger was the first hyper-velocity .22 LR cartridge and provided a significant increase in velocity and energy over standard rimfire rounds. The Stinger case is slightly longer at .702 in (17.8 mm) versus .613 in (15.6 mm) for the long rifle case, but the plated hollow point bullet is lighter and shorter at 32 gr (2.1 g), giving the ...
In 1975, CCI engineers completed development of the first "hyper-velocity" .22 Long Rifle ammunition. This ammunition became known as the "CCI Stinger." [7] In early 2020, CCI introduced 14 new products. [8] CCI/Speer sells the Gold Dot line, component bullets, and handgun ammunition using a bonded copper-plated hollow point bullet.
The .22 long is a variety of .22 caliber (5.6 mm) rimfire ammunition.The .22 long is the second-oldest of the surviving rimfire cartridges, dating back to 1871, when it was loaded with a 29 gr (1.9 g) bullet and 5 gr (0.32 g) of black powder, 25% more than the .22 short on which it was based.
The .17 Hornady Mach 2, commonly known as the .17 HM2, is a rimfire cartridge introduced in 2004 by the ammunition manufacturer Hornady, following the successful launch in 2002 of the .17 HMR. The .17 HM2 is based on the .22 Long Rifle "Stinger" case, necked down to .17 caliber (4.5 mm) and using a bullet weighing less than half the weight of a ...
.22 long rifle extra long (LR EX), a variant of .22LR with a longer casing but identical overall cartridge dimensions (see CCI Stinger).22 short, a cartridge used mostly in pocket pistols and mini-revolvers.22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (WMR), a magnum cartridge that is longer and more powerful than the .22 LR
Example of a ballistic table for a given 7.62×51mm NATO load. Bullet drop and wind drift are shown both in mrad and MOA.. A ballistic table or ballistic chart, also known as the data of previous engagements (DOPE) chart, is a reference data chart used in long-range shooting to predict the trajectory of a projectile and compensate for physical effects of gravity and wind drift, in order to ...
The CCI .22 CB Short and .22 CB Long use the same 29-grain bullet as the regular .22 Short and .22 Long. The CCI CB rounds have muzzle velocities of 720 feet per second (ft/s) for an impact energy of 33 foot/pounds (ft-lb). The standard .22 Short and .22 Long fire the same bullet weight at 1,045 ft/s for 70 ft-lb.
Terminal ballistics is a sub-field of ballistics concerned with the behavior and effects of a projectile when it hits and transfers its energy to a target. Bullet design (as well as the velocity of impact) largely determines the effectiveness of penetration.
