kandyredcoi Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 what advantages would one have using CCI Stingers over CCI Mini Mags or CCI Blazers for plinking purposes?i currently have the Mini Mags and Blazers around 3K rounds...just want to know if the extra cost of the Stingers are worth it?

Michigan Joe Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Might be that you have to consider a combination of bullet weight and feet per second out the muzzle. A charge that moves a heavier bullet at a certain speed out the muzzle, all things otherwise being equal, would deliver more recoil force to the bolt than a charge moving a lighter bullet the same speed. In addition, bullet shape and coating might have an effect on how they feed through a specific gun, I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asmurff Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 I may never catch up to Madhouse, but I have over a 1000 rounds of most calibers I use except for .22 and I have over that amount in both CCI Mini Mags and Federal Auto Match. I buys some sort of ammo or reloading component every payday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microgunner Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 I find one advantage of the Stingers over other hyper velocity ammo is the nickel plated cases. Makes for more reliable feeding and extraction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delta Z71 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 I'm shooting the new HK MP5 SD and it takes HV rounds. Now I have shot the Stingers for about two days. And the gun shoots them great but I later read somewhere that Hyper V rounds may hurt the bolt. Is this true in my gun or can the Hyper rounds be considered to be a high velocity round and OK to shoot out my gun? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microgunner Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Hyper velocity 22lrs are usually just high velocity w/lighter bullets.Of course, the laws of physics still apply, if the bullet is traveling faster the bolt will also be traveling faster.

ipschoser1 Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 Stingers are great fun in the M&P15/22, but dang they are pricey. Ten cents per round makes it a specialty load for most of us. Heck, you could shoot 9mm for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 I rarely use them except for hunting and maybe to break-in a new semi-auto .22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4rk Posted April 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 shot bout 50 rounds today... man..... these got to be the best ammo for the colt.i take this back.. i think the velocitors are the best ammo for the colt. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnsampson Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I've looked at the specs on both Stingers and Velocitors. The Stinger is a 32 grain bullet, the Velocitor launches a 40 grain bullet. Muzzle velocity of the Stinger is in excess of 1,600 fps and the Velocitor clocks at I believe 1,500 fps or so. However, where it becomes interesting is muzzle energy and energy at 100 yards. The Velocitor has more energy at 100 yards than the Stinger by some 20 foot pounds (101 vs. 81). Also, the bullet out of the Velocitor round remains intact and mushrooms rather nicely. The Stinger tends to splinter and/or fragment. I've fired all CCI preferred rounds out of my M&P 15-22, to include the CCI AR rounds. ALL of them functioned flawlessly. Remington Golden failed to fire on two occasions, failed to feed three times. As such, CCI will be the ONLY ammunition I will run through my tactical 22's. No exception unless someone comes up with my dream .22 which is a pointed boat tail 40 grain bullet. I can dream, right? If it can be done for the .17 HMR, why not for a .22 LR? C:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
