CCI .22 LR Quiet ammo ?
- Thread starter Mus408
- Start date
I've found plenty in the last few months and bought a brick + of each variation. I also bought 1,300 of the Winchester CB Match longs that are similar in quietness but use a 29 gr. bullet.
PS: They make these in runs so now you see them, now you don't. I found these easily online. There are more:

I bought some CCI quiet at wal Mart recently. Regular Wal Mart prices too...but still a 3 box limit.

It's still a great price for this ammo. I pd. about $4.99 + tax for mine. I don't consider $10 shipping for 10 boxes a bad price, delivered with no tax. YMMV.

"Anyone able to find this ammo? Wish more ammo manufactures would make this type of ammo!"
It seems the market does not support this desire. Remington apparently dropped the "C-Bee" reduced noise round. In my trap line pistol, it was more accurate than the CCI Quiet and more effective than Aguila Super Colibri.

How accurate does a "trap line" pistol need to be, at what, 10 feet? The Remington C-BEE is not what any of the local trappers around here use for dispatching P/O'd skunks, coons, fishers, or other snarly beasts that have a foot between steel jaws. Many of the experienced trappers in this neck of the woods use 4-inch barreled revolvers with CCI Quiet, or other, more powerful rounds than the "wimpy" C-BEE bullet.
"other, more powerful rounds than the "wimpy" C-BEE bullet."
From the ammo box--CBee 22 Long Rifle , 33 grain truncated cone hollow point @ 740 fps(muzzle) 687 fps(50 yards). This doesn't sound all that "wimpy" to me.
Accuracy is a factor in dispatching skunks from a "no stink" range of 20' or so.
More powerful ammo has the disadvantage of passing through the fur bearers and ricocheting off frozen ground.
A very acceptable alternative is the currently available CCI sub-sonic HP(approx 1020 fps). It is very accurate in my muffled 22/45 and has excellent expansion performance. Louder than the Quiet from a 5.5" barrel.

Is this strictly a revolver round, or does it cycle semiautos?

Are you asking about the Quiet or the sub-sonic? None of my Ruger 22 pistols will cycle the Quiets. The sub-sonic cycles 100% in my 22/45 with the muffler in place.

No, it's not strictly a "revolver" round at all. The CCI Quiet ammunition functions just fine in bolt action rifles, AND, if you have your Ruger semi-auto set up properly, it will cycle and function just fine with the CCI Quiet rounds, even when the pistol, or rifle is suppressed.
The bolt in this Ruger Mark III 22/45 is a "prototype" part still in the beta testing stage. Weight of the above bolt is less than half the weight of the factory Ruger Mark pistol bolt. This pistol shoots/functions CCI Quiet @ 710 box velocity very well. The barrel on the above pistol will not provide that velocity as fired over my Oehler 35P chronograph, yet the pistol still cycles just fine.
Same goes for the Ruger 10/22 platform. Get the proper BOLT, and you'll be able to shoot CCI Quiet ammunition, again, even suppressed, out of your Ruger 10/22 rifle.
There's no sense in pouting about CCI Quiet ammunition not being available locally, if one were to go on-line, there's a plethora of .22 rimfire ammunition that's available, even the CCI Quiet stuff.
