CCI is pretty much the gold standard when it comes to rimfire ammunition. If you’re looking for tried and universally trusted 22 LR for plinking and target shooting, then a brick of the Idaho manufacturer’s Standard Velocity ammo truly is all you need.

Standard Velocity label ammo is actually subsonic muzzle velocity: 1,070 feet per second out of rifle barrel (CCI does not specify their test barrel’s length). Subsonic 22 LR is inherently accurate (primarily because it eliminates the effects of transonic destabilization), and it produces a softer report as well. It does generate relatively less chamber pressure, which is why you may have to manually cycle a semi-automatic while firing these solid point loads.

If it acquires its advertised muzzle velocity, this round’s 40 grain lead round nose projectile will exhibit a G1 BC of .12. With a 1.5” high sight, drop 50 yards downrange of a 50-yard zero equals around -7.6”.
