CCI Stingers?
I was running all kinds of ammo through my 15-22 on Sat to see what worked and what did not. I got my hands on some S&B HV and some Winchester Hyper Velocity. The Hypers grouped fantastically, the SB grouped well but way off POA.
Then I hauled out my half box of Stingers left over from YEARS ago. Damn these thing cooked out of the 15-22. Over the chrony they were in excess of 1500fps. (I though I recalled 1600 but the guy who was with me said 1570 ish.)
They grouped well, fed well and were nice and reliable. Now I want some more.
Does anyone stock them?

Re: CCI Stingers?
if you're going to shoot HOT ammo through the 15-22, you might want to invest in some spare ejectors and ejector springs.
the S&W 15-22 forum is full of incidents where extremely hot ammo plucked the ejector out.
ejector/extractor.... the little black hook in the bolt. meh.

Get your local dealer to order some from Formalito. It is still on their pricelist along with the Velocitors.

Re: CCI Stingers?
True. Some guys say they shoot lots of Stingers without issue, I just want some for gits and shiggles. They won't be my go to round. Probably too expensive :-) and my gun likes bulk HVHP and sub sonic anyway.
Brendank, thanks, will do.

Re: CCI Stingers?
I think you will find some, they arrived in SA about 3-4 months back.
I bought mine from a dealer in Mosselbay at about R170/50 and he said they don't have any mini-mags available, only the stingers.
