Love the CCI as basic practice ammo, always did decent in my CZ457. 👍🏻❤️🇺🇸

Just getting into .22lr after years of shooting. I don't have money for a $5000 dollar rifle but I'm gonna have a lot of fun building my budget platform. Always love your videos.

Looks like you found your new match ammo. That’s awesome that cci sv shot that well

I love CCI SV. I ring steel at 150 yards with it. Runs great in both of my guns.

Truly is amazing how well CCI standard performs

Good stuff Josh! As expected with no surprises. I've experimented with both and had identical results.

WOW! Your shooting is always great but man! The video quality was incredible! Crystal clear, great job man.

Thanks for the great info Josh. I just finished up my CZ 457 PRS build and got to the range for some break-in. I shot a .27" group at 50 yards with CCI standard velocity after about 25 rounds thru the barrel. Groups with Aguila bulk ammo were pretty good, tight 4-shot group and a flyer.

Great video Josh, thank you. Because of the ammo restrictions here in Aust we normally train with CCI SV. But only to about forty yards. That distance seems to keep it a bit more honest. A normal practise day for us here at my home club for NRL22 is at forty using .5” targets. And we seem to keep competitive like that. So for me to see this cheaper ammo out of a 5k gun is really interesting to me. I’ll just add. Another good cheap one is Hornady varmint express. It’s actually a little more accurate.

CCI standard and Norma Tac-22 do very well out of my 50 year old Glenfield model 20 at 50 and 100. All that I’ve ever tried in it because that is all that is available in my area besides the bulk box stuff.

I shot some real budget 22lr ammo today. I was using my shaw barreled 1022 using Aguila super extra standard vel. I had some .88 to a couple of .48s. I just bought a Ruger RPR, and now I am waiting on my Arken scope to come in. I got burned out of steel challenge and needed to find a new hobby. Thanks to your videos, I think I found the group therapy I needed. Keep up the good work.

I once bought a box of 50 rounds of CCI Standard that shot groups at 50 yards from my 1989 built CZ ZKM 452 model 2E topped with Tasso World Class straight 6X scope as small as your first tight group in this video. I have fired around 400 rounds of CCI Standard from different lots but most shot around.8 to an inch 5 shot groups. I regret not having gone back to the gun shop were I bought that first box and grabbed 5000 rounds from the same lot of CCI Standard rimfire ammo that shot so well in my old rifle. Interesting video Josh 👍. Cheers 🍻 🍻.

Love the CCI out of my Volquartson Mamba. Usually take 1st in my league small bore comp.

My experience with CCI SV is kind of like yours without the extremely small groups. But I tend to have one bad flyer out of about 2 five shot groups. Like you I notice the hotter rounds and just ignore the flyers. I don't shoot pas 100 so it serves me well. It's good enough for practice and to keep me relatively sharp.

Thanks for the honesty Josh. I know that was informative and I appreciate to taking one for the team! I'm sure there will be plenty that will comment about the CCI... I still use it for my practice and continue to get good results. 👍

Either would be minute of squirrel head or zombie pepsi can! CCI has always been my favorite "cheaper" choice ammo and usually easy to source including at most big box stores that sell rimfire ammo which again gives it a bit of a bonus in a pinch.

I will typically do my dot drills with CCI at around 70yds if I have a good lot. I always shoot a control group to measure against it to see what it and the gun are going to do and try to keep my positional groups around the same size.

Holy cow what a difference! Lol my rifle seems to hate any cci standard but does ok with the sellier. Awesome video!

I tried some magtech standard velocity a while back and it did pretty good.

CCI is a great ammo on the cheap. Affordable, easy to find and works good in most .22 's.

Another great video !! Thanks a bunch fer sharing - Appreciate it.

I use a CZ455 for hunting small game and it just loves the S&B subsonic HP . They are the most accurate of about 6 other brands I tried.

I was shooting the cci ar tactical ammo in my 457.. then found out I had to use subsonic sonic rounds for our local matches so switched to sk+.. the ar tactical cci's shot well in my cz

I use the Standard Velocity all the time for practice👍👍

Great video Josh. Love CCI Standard Velocity, only in my 10/22 prs rifle, and only short range shoots, less than 200y.

I am not all surprised about the CCI standard I use it all the time for practice it is very good ammo and cheap !

Had the exact opposite experience in my CZ457 with standard chamber varmint barrel. CCI won't group but S&B Club gives exceptional accuracy at 50M for the price. .22LR ammo performance seems to be very barrel dependant.

Appreciate your device on blue collar ammo, I just brought up to alaska a 5000 case of Lapua long range!!!! My very first group with Lapua in my 360 Vudoo was 10 circle have the size of a dime, I just started laughing out loud. AMMO MAKES A DIFFERENCE!!!!

i'd like to see you try some S&B canadian match.

I've gotten the same results out of cci sv. I've also gotten complete trash groups out of it. It depends on the lot of ammo. It's not consistent at all. And the lots aren't written on the box. So I am starting to write dates on them. It at least gives me an idea of what is what with it. But every now and then I get some boxes that shoot lights out.

I shoot even cheaper Aguila ammo from my . This is exactly what I have hoped to see, thanks brother I really like the video

Interestingly, S&B makes a 22LR variant called "Canadian Match" available up here in Canada. I've found it to be better than CCI SV and have switched over to it as my practice ammo as it doesn't cost much more if you buy a case worth of it.

I only use CCI standard for my Ruger precision. For some reason it and result are similar to what you go here. Only thing I do find with the CCI is 1 or 2 out of every 100 is a dud/miss fire. I live with that for the price.

One of the better ones I have seen!............... the mike

Nice test. Thank you. I now have a higher opinion of the CCI ammo

same experience with cci std and my 457 varmint, like your groups most of the time 5 shots will all touch at least, it is accurate enough that it hard for me to justify buying 10-15 dollar box 22lr

Can you do a range tour? Would love to see your setup. Love the videos!

I only run CCI standard for practice ammo out of my Bergara because it works well. No point in blowing money on more expensive stuff to practice.

Im having very good results out to 200 with my pre A Winchester Model 52 and CCI SV. Its really surprising for $10 a hundred. I do get better results with Norma Match but for practice ammo its great. I have a 2 by 3 steel swinger at 200 and hit it pretty consistently. Without modern ergonomics and with 75 year old scope, thats about all I can expect through 60 year old eyes.

That was crazy. i knew the cci sv would do better but holly crap! severe beat down... that rifle really likes cci, shoots like it's tennex in my gun haha. awesome video brother, cheers

CCI standard velocity is the best cheap ammo for my rifle. Aguila SV is a close second.

"As always, great review"👍👍👍

Looks like I’m gonna have to try some groups with some Non-Match grade ammo through my CZ 457 MTR !!! shoots pretty good outta my 457 Lux

Great content as always.

I had the same experience with my @$& Target (not a match chamber, an off the shelf rifle). CCI did so much better! I like S&B for their SP and LR primers though. I even tried the S&B .22LR SV in my TC Contender 10” which does have a match chamber. No better. It even does better with MiniMag HP than this SV ammo. Thanks for the video! Take care.

That KYL in the water was pretty cool.

Thats about as good I have seen CCI-SV perform, in my experience the accuracy varies quite a bit from lot to lot. My T1X performs well with it most of the time, some lots are terrible though. Good job on the video.

At 50m my CZ 457 shoots CCI STD very good. Sub MOA. Once I go to 100m and beyond it starts to open up.

Lols I think you need to get more of that lot for some cheap practice. This was very entertaining, yes, more expensive ammo is more consistent than CCI, but you found a great lot. Good video

I understand that CCI SV is actually Green Tag that didn’t make the cut to be Green Tag. Great shooting as always!!

Colt/CZ just acquired Sellier & Bellot 2 days ago. I wonder if manufacturing practices will change.

I practice with cheap ammo at 100 yards and under - S.V. shot fine from my Bregara however when I got my Vudoo it would not feed the S.V. so I changed to Tac22 - - does fine in the Vudoo and is also cheap - -

Great video 👍👍👍👍

Josh... try CCI vs Norma TAC22 1080FPS... I have some great groups at 50 ... with my MTR and VPC

Maybe you should do a little lot testing of the CCI SV 😅. It shoots great out of my Steel Challenge Rimfire open guns

I’ve never got that kind of performance out of CCI Standard with my 457. I’ve got that out of SK Standard Plus, but never CCI.

And that is old type of Sellier & Bellot ammo, from last year they have all new factory and new tools just for rimfire ammo, you should try to get some new boxes, you should see that now under Sellier & Bellot name on box there is new typo also added ENHANCED PERFORMANCE CONSTRUCTION. You will be suprised how accurate those new are and its velocity is better than SK ammo

My CZ457 has ok groups with CCI SV but prefers SK

I like the newer Norma stuff for the money!

CCi SV all day

Would like to see you do some Ely Contact.

Dont know how you guys have been getting on in the US but here in the UK I have found CCI has been having real issues with primer material in the rim, lots of voids. This is sometimes as bad as 5% fail to fire. I have been shooting CCI for years and shoots 1000s of rounds a year but have put a pause on CCI for a while till its sorted.

I stopped shooting here in EU. $7 for a box 22lr cci is a nogo. 9mm $16. But S&B makes bad ammo. Especially the 9mm. The .223 S&B corroded my sig223. No matter how much oil i used for cleaning . Its bad dirty ammo. The light blue .22cci standard are also bad. Only the old Dark blue CCi .22 were good. 😊

It always falls apart at distance though. At 200m+ I'm getting usually 6-8" of vertical out of the cci.

CCI SV usually shoots fairly well. I thought I had read/heard that Vuduu uses a special chamber reamer? If so, would that skew the test?

Picked up some Sellier & Bellot (Topshot) 5000 rds for approx $370. It's OK for training, but too many flyers for anything else. My Marlin 39A and my CZ 457 like the stuff, but too many flyers.

Great Video 💯💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Here's a free video idea for you that just occurred to me while watching the video: You should do a video from the perspective of an experienced precision rimfire shooter about how the chrono helps you, what the numbers mean -- what's a good SD or spread -- and anything else that you'd think someone walking down your path should know. Anyway, solid video -- I'm almost tempted to buy some CCI SV to try out of my 457 Varmint MTR just to see what I'd get.

Well that was same as I found with S&B. Good price but real inconsistent out of 457.

Does that lot of CCI happen to start with JC by chance?I have a lot here that's rediculous in how well it shoots out of my Lithgow. It's shot several sub .2's. it has its fliers but not as many as typical but with how well the other 19/20 shot it's well worth trying. I will say tho I also have lots here that at 50yards the target looks more like the pattern board at a trap club than a rifle group. Tough to break 1"

Thanks man!! But when I said to try S&B ammo I sure didn’t think that you aren’t going to use CZ🤣 since they are made 150 miles apart 🤣

Hey Bro would you consider Green Tag budget ammo? How does it compare to to the ammo you shot for this video? Thanks for the great work. I wanna tell you something...There is guy on KZfaq that always has top of the line gear makes me wonder where he gets all that money ??? He even posts all the places he goes to shoot all over the world. Its almost as if he is showing off. He would never use budget ammo or even a chicom scope. When I watch your videos you do have awesome gear but I don't feel that you are showing off. Keep it up Bro!

Try some eley contact with your lilja barreled cz. My head space was set at .041. Out shot my sk match. Half the price.

I got to say, that i am a little disapointed with the performance of them SaB Club... I personally, as a czech shooter/hunter, use SaB Hollow Points, both subs and supers, and i have to say, that even standing and shooting of quad-sticks, my grouping at 50 meters out of stock CZ457 MDT could not have been much worse (actually compereable, maybe even slightly better) compared to what the SaB Club did... Also, got a hold of an older box of these Club, have not tested the accuracy, because i do not really punch paper... And cause i do not need a non-HP bullet nor hit the exact same point... But as i said, them SaB HP have quit a potencial in my opinion...

Does anybody ever test heavier grain 22’s or is 40 grain the normal? Also when testing different brands or lots are you cleaning after so many shots? Or at-lease running a dry patch or two

What s and b were you shooting??

What scope and rings you using on that.. ? Thanks

i have shot no less than 20 different ammos in my 22 all of the eleys/rds/wolf//etc at 50 yards hard to beat the cci real hard to justify the high dollar 22 rounds

cci shoots good at 50 out of my b14 but no go at 100

My 10/22's all LOVE CCI standard velocity !!.. my guns shoot 1/2 groups at 100 yrds with CCI 1070fps

Be good to see what they do at 100

The problem with CCI SV isn’t that it performs like five-dollar ammo. The problem with CCI SV is the generations of weirdos on the internet swearing up and down that it’s the ne plus ultra of rimfire ammo. It’s cheap subsonic ammo that is not designed to compete with (and cannot compete with) European match ammo. It’s fine. It’s waxy and a little inconsistent. You get one or two supersonic rounds per box when shooting from a rifle. It almost never has defects like spinning bullets or missing primer compound. But, go somewhere like RimfireCentral, and you’ll find oodles of weird old guys with modified 10/22s swearing up and down that it shoots just as well as Lapua and Eley, like it is somehow magic ammo that transcends QC/QA limitations.

cci standard gives one hole groups at 50m out of my bogo std cz457 mtr. why pay more😀

Willing to take some abuse, can anyone tell me what "KYL" stands for? It's been baffling me for a while now.

Don’t sleep on cci sv

Next CCI vs Center X? 😂

The only accurate CCI I've ever found was Green Tag. It was pricey enough at the time to buy Wolf instead. Mini mags turn my 1 MOA Savage into a 4"+ gun. Life is too short for mediocre.

Hi. What brand are those 22lr storage boxes you use? I cant locate them.

Wears Jon mid west long range at he hasn’t been on in a wile

bel low really its bel-lot...theres a tee on the end

S&B SV is meh. Conversely, S&B sub-sonic is amazing. Unfortunately, it's about $2 more for a 50 round box than S&B SV. My new CZ457 XRS 16.5" loves it.

"for 5 dollars what do you expect", well quite a bit better!

A new low!!! Lmao suprised

Are you sure that is CCI? 😂
