CCI Stinger, Harder better faster stronger, Tikka T1X .22lr
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- Today, I’m excited to test what might be the fastest and most hard-hitting .22lr on the market: the CCI Stinger. Boasting a muzzle velocity of 1640 fps-at least, that's what CCI claims-this round has piqued my curiosity. Unfortunately, my chronograph has retired to the great hunting ground in the sky, so I can't verify the speed myself. We'll have to take CCI's word for it. The word on the street is that the new version of the Stinger offers improved accuracy. Let’s see what this test reveals!

Interesting. I remember when Stingers came out and I thought they were definitely not as accurate as the common Winchester, Remington etc. and I never went back. I do want to try them again now, and with a different rifle.
It`s worth a try. They might perform better for you now.
From Houston Texas, Like your video. Keep it up 👍💯😊😊😊😊😊
The great state of Texas! Thank you!
Thank you. My CZ hates all CCI. For supersonic l use Hornady, getting three inch grouping at 100 yards usually. I did read ages ago about not using Stingers in a match chamber, something to do with pressure. Do enjoy your videos.
Yes, the Stinger has a longer case. Thank you for watching my videos👍
Thanks for the video. I had not heard that the Stingers went through some change, great that they are improved.
I`m not sure what they did, but I was told by the importer that they had done some work on them. Whatever they did it seems to have worked.
Great video. That Bifrost stock is fantastic, i´m extremely happy with mine.
Hi! Yes, i like it a lot. The one thing I would like is if they made a "same side" thumb rest. But thats no biggie.
Well, that answers the question about the Tikka having a match chamber 😮 it does not!
I like stingers for plinking fruit and pumpkin carving in the fall 😊
Nice groups for sure considering! Thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you! I guess the chamber is reamed to fit all cartridges on the market
I have a brno model 2 and a brno cz 2E 452 both love the stingers, 1 inch groups at 70 metres every day of the week but my cz 452 american is struggling to get 2 inch groups at 50 metres but likes the cci velocitors 1 inch groups again at 70m. 22Lr rifles can be very finnicky with ammo. Cheers
Yes, only one way to find out what works, testing, testing, testing. My first .22 was a mod2. It`s on my «to-buy-list».
I have a buddy that had a Ruger 77/22 that shot atrocious, except it would make little knot holes with the old Stingers at 50yds. Never saw another rifle that would even consistently shoot groups even twice that size. He quickly traded it because who want to only buy $$$$ and shot Stingers.
I'm impressed with the groups you obtained and might give them another try. I'd be interested in how much the groups would open at 70-75 yds. in your rifle.
.22`s are strange that way. They do have their preferences when it comes to ammo, and they often surprice me. I have thought about doing a «head to head» challenge between the Stinger and the Yellow Jacket. Maybe I should do this at 75 yards🤔
You got a subscriber out of me mate, Gday all the way from Australia, What bolt/knob is that you have it looks great, I also like the stock I have 2 GRS berserk stocks either love them or hate them. Keep up the good work mate keep the content coming. Cheers
Hi! One of the great things with my little youtube journey is that I get in contact with gun and shooting entusiasts all over the world. Yes, the bolt knob is sweet. I bought it from a british company callee MM sports. They do international shipping. I bought one for both my Tikkas. Than you for the kind words!
Check out the CCI mini mag. I’m sub 1/2in at 50 yards!
Thanks for the video
Always informative
You're welcome! I hope I can make some more interesting videos.
Thanks for the info! I had a old box of stingers I took to the range and I was all over the target, blaming my scope I couldn't figure out what the problem was, I had no idea they have a new version, you may of saved me from buying a new scope! I will be getting the new ones and try them out now and see if there is a difference
I hope it was the ammo and not the scope. Let me know how it went. Best of luck!
What about a hyper velocity shoot out between brands
Not a bad idea for a video! I may just put something together.
Excellent review, Viking. love your work.😊
Thank you so much!
It was never intended for precision, it was intended for killing critters. Although the accuracy has improved over the last 20 yrs. I'm not sure if light 22 bullets were intended to see those velocities.
You are correct. The twist rate in most .22lr aren't made for such light bullets and speed. But sometimes it works out for some reason.
I recommend you get the Garmin Xero C1 Pro chrony. It is pricey, but well worth it. It is so easy to set up and use. I use mine all the time and enjoy it. Good video. Thanks.
Yes, it probably will be the Garmin. It looks like the best chrono on the market at the moment.
Try aguila interceptor HP and normal point also with chrono please
I`d love to test it. But nowhere to be found in Norway at the moment.
Rip chrono . The garmin xero is so good and easy
I guess that will be what I go for. Just have to get Garmin sponsor me one😆
I miss the nerdy speed measurements! Also, I want to test some theories with your chrono one day :D
Thank you, Ola!
Great video as always - but I really miss some speed verification, I love that nerdy shit. So I donated some towards a new chrono
Thank you so very much!
Never been impressed with stinger. Use a Neal Waltz Die to make match ammo into hollow points. Works better for me.
Hi! I also have a hollow point maker made by a norwegian tool maker. I'll do a test with it at a later time.
Always interesting!🙂
Thank you so much!
If you want to go even faster you should try the cci copper (1850fps)
I forgot that one! I actually have a box of it😁! Thank you for reminding me- I now also just remember that Norma and RWS(most likely the same cartridge) also have a super fast copper.
good video i keep stingers on hand for hunting they do well on larger animals like our ground hogs i don"t like them on squirrels they tear them up to bad as i enjoy the meat and my wife the shygirl this is her computer does not like the noise over standard velocity
Yes, the Stingers make a loud bang.
I would have to guess that, extra speed = extra heat. That's why the groups got worse with every target!

Better accuracy. What else did they change?
I think the numbers are pretty much the same. If I should make a guess they have tighten up tolerances in their components and production. But this is just a guess.
@@thegunviking CCI has needed to work on the accuracy of the Stinger for a long time now. It is great that they have finally done something. The stinger is a very good round.
@@7come11two I`m playing with the idea of a long range video with it🤔
@@thegunviking It's got the velocity. If we could just get the accuracy.
Don't try Stingers if you have a match chamber the case is too long, you will squeeze the bullet.
Yes, the brass is longer.
Still group shite unfortunately
No matchammo, thats for sure. But good enough for hunting at reasonable range. I have other hyper spped ammo I will be testing.
