CCI .22 Short CB ammunition delivers a specialized rimfire option for shooters who need reduced-report performance in a compact, affordable package. This load pairs a 29-grain lead round-nose projectile with CB-level power—ideal for situations where full-power .22 Long Rifle rounds are overkill or unwanted. Whether you're managing pest problems at close range, enjoying quiet plinking sessions, or testing vintage firearms, .22 Short CB ammunition offers controllable, dependable performance without breaking the budget.

The .22 Short platform has been around for over a century, and CCI's CB offering modernizes that heritage for practical use. The reduced velocity and report make this round a smart choice for shooters who want to minimize noise without sacrificing reliability. Each box contains 100 rounds, and bulk availability (5,000-round cases) makes it accessible for frequent shooters and pest control operators who value consistency and cost-effectiveness.

CCI ammunition is engineered for reliable feeding and ignition across a wide range of .22 Short-chambered firearms. The lead round-nose bullet design ensures straightforward ballistics and clean performance downrange, while the modest power level keeps recoil and muzzle blast minimal—a practical advantage in situations where stealth or comfort matters.
