CCI 22LR Shotshell 20 Rounds

For more than 50 years, CCI has been a leading innovator in rimfire ammunition, designing tailored loads to match the needs of dedicated hunters and shooters. For short-range pest management, CCI Shotshell Rimfire Ammo fires a pattern of tiny birdshot pellets. Pellets are encased in a plastic capsule that does not damage gun barrels, and any residue is easily removed using standard cleaning techniques. Producing minimal noise and muzzle blast at sub-sonic velocities, and having virtually no risk of over penetration, makes CCI Shotshell Rimfire Ammo an ideal choice for getting rid of vermin close to human habitation.
