If dupe sorry. Didn’t search, just trying to let others know before it’s gone.

Actually not a bad price for what they were priced at a while back. Normally sold for 6.99

Would you guys say Stingers are one of the best .22LR self defense round you can get?

They went down a buck from a few weeks ago.  Check Federal and CCI in the mornings to see what they have available that day.  Yes, there is already a thread on it.

ETA: Blazer .22 LR at $3.99/box available right now.  Just realized that I bought the federal Black Packs w/1100 rounds for $39.00 and then get the $10 rebate a few years ago on Black Friday.  I still have quite a few left.  If you need .22, looks like it's coming back.

Good looking out OP. Not a bad price, given the market.

Also had Blazer .22LR at $3.99/box. picked up a brick for S&Gs… although that price is almost four times what I paid the last time I bought a case.

The grandkids are always asking, "Papa, will you teach us how to shoot?" And I tell them, "No fucking gawd damn way at today's prices, I ain't buying any .22 until it's back down to .66 cents a box!!!"

Not a bad price - they’re pretty reliable for rimfire. I wish they’d do a run I’d Clean Quiets, which are by far my favorite CCI product.

Quiets are probably my most used for garden pests and that. I’m good but told a friend I’d keep an eye out for them.

36grain and a little faster vs 40 and slightly slower. Both are very fast. Either one does a number in varmints. Super accurate.

I just ordered 10 boxes of that cheap stuff ($3.99) which they also have in stock and six boxes of the good stuff to get to just over $100 so I could get the free shipping which would have been $12 otherwise.

Thanks for the tip!

The jokes are flying pretty fast so I should clarify, .22LR would be my last choice for self defense but for a number of reasons I often find myself with just a .22 on my person plus I know people who are not comfortable using anything larger than a .22. Obviously less than ideal for self defense but better than a sharp stick and better yet with the most effective ammo you can get.

Without a suppressor are they mich quieter than CCI Standard Velocity? Those are subsonic and my favorite target round but a cartridge named Quiets must be quieter yet, no?

Thank you!
Checking my stock list I have-
7 325 round boxes of Automatch
400 rounds of CCI Standard
1200 Minimags
500 CCI Quiet
200 (?) Minimag HP

Most of the Standards and Minimags were purchased from a store I used to pass. That's all for the 10/22 TD and the old Glenfield/Marlin, neither of which I've shot. Got plenty of Ruger mags and upgrade parts though, looking at a Backpacker stock next!

Back in the day my father and I shot a whole bunch of woodchucks in North Jersey with CCI stingers. They would blow the fuck out of them.

I have about 20 boxes myself paid about seven bucks average at Walmart over the last five years.

If you load your 22 with a mix of standard and stingers you can definitely tell the difference. If you shoot them at night fire comes out of the barrel of your pistol.

From a rifle they should be half decent.  For pistol use I'd suggest 42 grn LRN Eley High Speed.

For elderly use, it gives you a very easy slide to rack, and they've got one foot in the grave anyway.

They are ok; but in a semi 22, you want what reliably cycles your action. Often, that's different for each gun.

They'll come back.

What you have to do is check a couple times a day.

The search function sucks.

Start at the top of the list and work your way down.

I've found Stingers, Velocitors, MiniMags, Blazers, and more.

But you have to keep looking.

Standard is sub? I can tell you Quiets are noticeably more quiet then other rounds I use out of a rifle. Others rounds I normally use are Mini Mags and standard stuff.

Just barely at ~1070fps. As I understand it subsonic .22 rounds are more accurate at longer as they don't go transonic and I have found the Standard Velocity to be very accurate in my rifle. Only thing is you have to make headshots on gophers.

@eracer

Why?  The heavier bullet?

ETA:  Just did a Google search and it retains velocity better because of better bullet construction with a better bullet coefficient.

@C-4

Velocitors are surprisingly accurate in all my rifles.  Usually, hypervelocity rounds tend to be less accurate; after testing Velocitors years ago in several different guns, I bought 15,000 of them.
