CCI is great...my favorite 22 round is the Stinger, unfortunatly my favorite 22 is the Ruger 10/22, and it doesn't like the Stinger...the case is just a bit too long. I shoot only CCI ammo through my gun...I think the minimags are very consistant and only a bit more expensive than the "box-o-bullets". I just bought a couple hundred rounds of the Velociter......hope it's Stinger-like.
