CCI .22Lr Bird Shot - where to buy

john_aero

Anyone know of a gun shop stocking CCI bird shot?

Everyone seems to have the Federal version. However the crimped ends are prone to expanding inside the barrel and not ejecting.

The CCI are a plastic end holding bird shot inside.

No, but I might be in the shop tomorrow. If so I’ll ask and let you know. Sometimes if you don’t get an answer it’s worth ringing the main number of the shop and leaving a message for James.

Spoke to James today, order hasn't left supplier. Expected sometime next week.

Looking forward to trying them out myself... the Federal ones are pretty useless.
