The reason that its mostly information on their performance in Rifles is because most would not want to use a subsonic round a handgun as it probably wouldn’t have the recoil you’d want in order to cycle the gun if its a semi. I would recommend the CCI Velocitor for a pistol load. Those things are insane. Have to be the most devistating round i’ve seen.

Are the 22LR Hollow Point bullets safe for a .22 pistol? All the comments I’m finding talk about rifles.

I must say. If you have a suppressor on a .22 you must have this round. I just purchased 500 rounds. I did not know how they would shoot but I was taking a chance. It payed off.

This is the best round for varmint hunting in a subsonic round hands down. I have been using subsonic hollow points from CCI, Remington, Eley subsonics and nothing has as much collateral damage as this round.

I took two soda cans filled with water and compared shots. The best subsonic hollow point was the CCI 40gr. It definately made a substantial amount of damage but the can remained a cylinder.

Next was the Segmented Hollowpoint in subsonic. It destroyed the can and with the suppressor it did not make a sound.

I have used this round in the 1600fps version and the effects are supprisingly similar for the difference in velocity. The only other round that has more damage is the Stinger round, but it is not subsonic.

Just my 2 cents. Def. worth the money.

Okay, Paco, I’ve got your “Leverguns and Handguns” book (on CD), but don’t remember hearing about your two other books. Didn’t see anything on leverguns.com about them, either.

What else have you written, and are they still available? I couldn’t tell you how many times I’ve read the one I’ve got.

I AM WRITTING MY FOURTH GUN BOOK… IT IS ON 22 RIMFIRE, 22 MAG RIMFIRE, AND THE 17 RIMFIRES… RIFLES, HANDGUNS, AND AMMO….
OF COURSE CCI HAS A MAJOR PLACE, SINCE YOU ARE ONE OF THE LARGEST MANUFACTURERS OF RIMFIRE AMMO…. PACO

Curious what you are shooting these in. I am thinking of trying them out as a defensive round for a Walther P22 that I just got. Yes, a .22 is not my main defensive weapon, but I like to have a few of the most damaging rounds available for each of the handguns I own. Do you think these would be a good option for a defensive round in the Walther P22?

thats interesting. I would very much like to try a very heavy subsonic bullet in a .22 wmr rifle. It would be great with a suppressor.

Ah, yes, that would be nice. I’ve heard that there are a number of folks that “reload” 22WMR. They pull bullets, replace powder and often use new/different bullets. IIRC, there are companies making equipment to help in this effort since it’s not like normal reloading.

Now that I’ve got me a 22WMR again, I’ve been wanting to look into it.

Hi TheGunGeek, I probably did not make it clear in the post. They are offering a subsonic .22lr, supersonic .22lr and supersonic 22WMR.

A subsonic .22 WMR would be useful if it pushed a heavier bullet. A 60 gr subsonic bullet from a .22 WMR would be great, if it would stabilize.

I don’t understand the statement that it “makes perfect sense in the 22 WMR” since there is non difference between this round in 22LR or 22WMR once it leaves the barrel.

The only advantage to 22WMR is the increased velocity possible. If you’re using subsonic rounds, there’s no difference at all between the two.
